Listen, Breathe

By Anna Golden

Lyrics

I don’t have to fight for Your attention

I don’t have to sing at the top of my lungs

I don’t have to ask for permission

For affection, I’ve already won

 

I don’t have to scream so You can hear me

I don’t have to burn all this fire and smoke

Hoping You’ll be here in the clearing

But You are near me wherever I go

 

Everything’s so simple when I just  

 

Listen, and breathe, cause You’re the God of everything

I listen, and breathe, cause You are in the in-between

And I don’t have to prove a thing

When all You want is me

So I just listen and breathe

Listen, and breathe

 

You are not a God of competition

There is no race, and I’m not behind

You don’t give Your love with conditions

It’s freely given, and it’s all mine

 

I don’t want to do Your work, and not know who You are

I don’t want to quote Your word, but never know Your heart

So help me listen, and breathe

Listen, and breathe

Listen, and breathe

Listen, and breathe
