From the recording REAL REST
In the time that we are living in, it feels like we need to be a super mom/dad. And yet I am only human. This next song came out of a season of learning what REST really is. It’s really not about doing nothing and sitting on the couch and eating chips, but it’s about. Surrender. Be still and know that I am God. Knowing that it’s all under his control. And that believing that everything will turn out. Someone told me REST = Release Every Single Thing.
Lyrics
I’m tired and worn out. Why's everything a race?
It seems impossible to carry one more thing
But I choose to walk with you, talk with you
No matter what’s going, I know that you’ll carry me through
You show me the real rest, to give me the good stuff
Surrender all I hold, take up your lighter load
We’ll walk in the garden, the way that we started
Hand in hand we go, a hopeful heart that grows
I check off the boxes, lists that never end
Push and pull in my strength has to end
But I choose to lay it down, let you win
Fight all my battles, all I have to shout is “amen”
You show me the real rest, to give me the good stuff
Surrender all I hold, take up your lighter load
We’ll walk in the garden, the way that we started
Hand in hand we go, a hopeful heart that grows
Ooh, Oh I lay it all down
You show me the real rest, to give me the good stuff
Surrender all I hold, take up your lighter load
We’ll walk in the garden, the way that we started
Hand in hand we go, a hopeful heart that grows
You show me the real rest, to give me the good stuff
Surrender all I hold, take up your lighter load
We’ll walk in the garden, the way that we started
Hand in hand we go, a hopeful heart that grows
