Rest Lyrics by Out of the Dust

The After

2022

[Verse 1]
Head so heavy on the pillowcase
Eyes staring out the window pane
The harder that I try
The more I lose the fight
Think I'm fine, then here it goes
What ifs and scenarios
Betrayal by my mind
Feeling paralyzed
I'm hanging by a thread
Everything keeps running through my head
I can't stop the chaos around me
But I can surrender what's in me, oh
[Chorus]
Be my peace, be my light
Be my one and only
Through my fear, day and night
Be the one who holds me
Father, give me new life
Spirit, renew my mind, oh
Be my peace, be my light
Be the one who gives me
Rest
My rest
[Verse 2]
Try so hard just to make it work
Head down, hands in the dirt
Carrying the weight
Hoping it's okay
Smile and try to cover my emotion
But I'm really drowning in an ocean
It won't go away
So I guess I'm not okay, oh
[Chorus]
Be my peace, be my light
Be my one and only
Through my fear, day and night
Be the one who holds me
Father, give me new life
Spirit, renew my mind, oh
Be my peace, be my light
Be the one who gives me
Rest
My rest
[Bridge]
Being scared isn't sinful
But, God, sometimes I'm forgetful
That You're right here in the middle
Father, help me remember
Being scared isn't sinful
But, God, sometimes I'm forgetful
That You're right here in the middle
Father, help me remember
That you want to carry this for me
This isn't the end of my story
Your love is forever restoring
Forever restoring (Oh)
Yes, you want to carry this for me
This isn't the end of my story
Your love is forever restoring
Forever restoring (Oh)
[Chorus]
Be my peace, be my light (Be my one)
Be my one and only (Be my one and only)
Through my fear, day and night (Yeah, yeah)
Be the one who holds me (Be the one who holds)
Father, give me new life (New life)
Spirit, renew my mind, oh (My mind)
Be my peace, be my light
Be the one who gives me
Rest (Yes, you want to carry this for me)
(This isn't the end of my story)
My rest (Your love is forever restoring)
(Forever restoring)
[Outro]
Yes, you want to carry this for me
This isn't the end of my story
Your love is forever restoring
Forever restoring
Your love is forever restoring
Forever restoring
