still
Anadara Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh come my anxious thoughts
There is no reason to fear
You've given perfect love,
Why would I, waste my time with worries,
I need to be still, quiet,
Until your peace comes and drowns out the noice,
I want to be found, seeking,
Ready to listen and follow your voice,
Spirit be my refuge, guard my heart until
I'm still
Here is my troubled heart,
Come turn this fear into faith,
I may not understand it all,
But the peace that you give, reminds me,
I need to be still, quiet,
Until your peace comes and drowns out the noice,
I want to be found, oh find me seeking,
Ready to listen and follow your voice,
Oh spirit be my refuge, come guard my heart until,
I'm still, and quiet,
Until your peace comes and drowns out the noice,
I wanna be found, Jesus find me seeking,
Ready to listen and follow your voice,
Oh spirit be my refuge, Lord guard my heart,




Until
I'm still, still...
