The Way You Move
Audrey Assad's song 'The Way You Move' is a reflective Christian piece about the overwhelming, transformative power of God's love. The lyrics describe how God's presence dismantles personal defenses, pride, and self-reliance, leaving the singer vulnerable yet safe. The imagery of a lion breaking down doors and tearing up roots conveys a forceful, loving invasion that brings surrender and freedom. The song emphasizes giving up control and finding security in God's movement, highlighting themes of surrender, faith, and divine love.
I know that the hardest
part of love is not the
things I have to give, no...
It's what I give up I'm giving up ground
I'm trading in my solitude for safety now. All my pride,
it doesn't stand a chance against the way you move.
You're tearing up roots & breaking down walls.
I don't stand a chance at all against the way you move.
You're like a lion standing in my house
and you're taking off the doors on your way in ...
I got nothing left
to hide behind. You're reading all my faith & all
my fear in my eyes...
All my pride, you know it doesn't
stand a chance against the way
you move you're tearing up my
roots & breaking down
walls and I don't stand a
chance at all against the way
you move...
All my pride, you know it doesn't
stand a chance against the way
you move you're tearing up my
roots & breaking down
walls and I don't stand a
chance at all against the way
you move...
