It's harder than it looks
To mean just what you say
To live life by the book
The battle's never won
It's like I'm trying to climb
A ladder without rungs
All this time, You've held me in Your arms
Even when I was blind to Your reality
When my own heart resigned
To swallow down the lies I've told myself
That I'll be alright
See, I always am alright
I'm far from evergreen
All my leaves easily swayed
To seek sunlight in the shade
But by Your own design
My phototropic heart
Beats brightly when it basks in Your true light
And all this time, You've held me in Your arms
You've wrapped Yourself in light
You've plumbed the depths of my own heart
Still I resign
To swallow down the lies I've told myself
That I'll be alright
See, I always am alright
But I know I'm not alright
I can't continue on this way
Maybe there's something new
Still under the sun
But I'm still the same, my leaves still dry
In waters deep, I fell asleep
Unaware that I'm drowning
In valleys dark, I hid my heart
But You pursued it from the start
And all this time, You've held me in Your arms
And now I realize Your plan is so much better
Than what I devise
Turn my heart to Your ever-present light
And I'll be alright, alright
And all this time, You've held me in Your arms
And now I realize Your plan is so much higher
Than what I devise
Turn my heart to Your ever-present light
And I'll be alright
And with You I'll be alright
I'll be alright
Lord, with You I'll be alright
