Starts And Ends

VERSE 1:

My soul thirsts for things I can?t explain 

In my bones a beckoning to pray 

If my heart is a battleground

My defences run both ways

The flesh is a beggar and thief

But there is a Spirit-man awakening me


VERSE 2:

When real life and peace won?t make amends

When all these starts

Start feeling like these ends

Like the world is unravelling

And I?m bound to come undone

There is a Shepherd a Priest

There is a Comforter who comforts me 


REFRAIN 1:

And my soul finds rest 

Where it makes no sense 

There the blood sets me free 


REFRAIN 2:

All my old regrets 

All my brokenness 

All my failures redeemed 


REFRAIN 3:

And it feels like grace

Where I stacked my shame 

There the cross stands for me 


REFRAIN 4:

All the things I?ve done

All the times I?ve run

All my dead ends redeemed


REFRAIN 5:

And it looks like hope 

Where my heart was broke 

And His heart broke for me 


BRIDGE:

Lay your burden down upon

Down upon Him

Lay your burden down 


PRE-CHORUS:

Jesus my rest in peace

My reconciler 

You?re my every good thing


REFRAIN 6:

I surrender all 

All I?m living for 

You?re my every good thing


REFRAIN 7:

You?re my amnesty

You?re my split wide sea

You?re my every good thing


REFRAIN 8:

All my days and nights 

You?re my death to life 

You?re the wonder I breathe 


REFRAIN 9:

You?re my can?t explain 

First and last refrain

You?re my every good thing
