Verse 1

Saying I can always trust You

Even though I got these trust issues

You chose me I didn't choose You

Showing me a love I never knew


Pre-Chorus

It's not easy for me

?Cause I like to lead

But I know that Your love is better

You're the air that I breathe

And You're holding all things

Yeah I know that Your love is better


Chorus

So I will, hold tight

God I know You got something in store for me

Faithful, as the sun rise

I know that Your light will always shine on me


It's better than I'll, I'll ever know

It's better than I'll, I'll ever know


Verse 2

I don't know the feeling

I don't understand

Trusting that You'll lead me to the promised land

Every second, every minute, every hour

I know that You're working things together
