Let's Be Still - The Head and the Heart

Do you have to show up on every corner Won't the dancin' begin without you Do you have to put on your eyes for me Be still I love you Now be still We walked through space in the twilight hours But did you really see the starset In your restless eyes I found the city lights Be still I love you Now be still Be still I love you Be still I love you Be still I love you I still love you now be still I know the child that I am has hurt you And I was a woman when I made you cry But a little boy wants to dry your tears Be still I love you Come on now Be still I love you Be still I love you Be still I love you I still love you now be still I still love you Come on now be still

Lord help me now to face this battle My strength has failed and my eyes can't see Through the waves of doubt that take me under In the chaos I hear you speak Be still and know that You are my God Be still and know that You are enough Though my heart is racing still You're in control Be still and know that You are my God You brought me rest in times of struggle I lay my head down at Your feet The storm in me that I can't wrestle Is calmed when I hear you speak You are faithful And Your love endures forever Yes, Your love endures forever You are able In You I'll stand forever Yes, in You I'll stand forever

God, why am I so obsessed with me? Don't I proclaim that you're the only one I see? Don't I believe that your son, he set me free? Why do I challenge this path you set for me? Seems that we're adamant on chasing these dreams, Bent on the images from television screens Why do I hog all the blessings that you lent? Why can't I get myself to give more than ten percent? Job security, my business, my ministry, My own idea of what the church should be... how Did I get so jaded, so lost to the fact that I should keep my heart instead of yours, God? May I go where you go, hurt where your hurt, See what you see especially in the church Will I pray for just enough to get by Or will I be still and know that you're the God of my life As I'm sitting patiently waiting for the Lord to speak Wait a minute, to be honest, I'm too anxious to sit Be still and know that He is Lord My biggest struggle cuz all the time I'm taking matters into my own hands Like Abraham and Sarah, looking to Hagar to give birth in whats promised Relying on my own experience and logic Lord, the passion I had for you has turned to what I do My eyes are fixed upon the ministry instead of fixed on You Father, I used to sit in peace soaked in Your presence still and quiet Listening to Your voice that calmed the mental riots But now I'm fighting with my strength walking in Your calling Lord help me cuz my feet will always be 2 steps from falling I desire to be in Your secret dwelling places Take this ambitious drive inside of me and bless me with serenity That I may be weak in the presence of the Son of Man Strengthened by the peace that transcends all to understand Sometimes it's hard to see the bigger picture. It's hard to see that God is working on something within you. He promised that He had a perfect plan for me. He said I am highly favored and His masterpiece. So why do I sit here and mope? When I should be joyful and filled up with hope. oh But wait I see most of my friends chasing careers Determined to make a solid living in the next four years. It's surreal, I feel like I am falling behind. I don't see myself making 6 figures in my lifetime. My family urges me to be the provider. To be a wealthy businessman with a Benz as my ride. But no, I'm at a fork, I'm torn; God, what should I do? I don't wanna disappoint my parents or deny You. I know that in my weakness, Your power is perfected. I know that in my weakness, Your power is perfected.

Let us talk no more, let us go to sleep, Let the rain fall on the window pane, And fill the castle keep, I am weary now, weary to my bones, Weary from the travelling, And the endless country roads, That brought us here tonight, for all this weekend, And a chance to work it out, For we cannot live together, and we cannot live apart, It's the classical dilemma between the head and the heart; She is sleeping now, softly in the night, And in my heart of darkness she has been the only light, I am lost in love, looking at her face, And still I hear the voice of reason, Telling me to chase these dreams away, Oh here we go again, we're divided from the start, For we cannot live together, and we cannot live apart, It's the classical dilemma between the head and the heart, The head and the heart; Now the dawn begins, and still I cannot sleep, My head is spinning round but now the way is clear to me, There is nothing left, nothing left to show, The jury and the judge will see, it's time to let her go, Now hear the heart: I believe that time will show, She will always be a part of my world, I don't want to see her go; So I plead my case to hear the heart, And stay... It's time to let her go - I don't want to let her go... It's time to let her go - I don't want to let her go... It's time to let her go - I don't want to let her go... It's time to let her go... And in this classical dilemma, I find for - the heart.
