Rest
I.Khan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In the chaos of the battle
Do you hear me in the silence
When there's nothing going on
Remind my soul you're still able
For the one, you'd leave the ninety-nine behind
You're in control, you don't let go
I will rest
In the violence of the ocean
Rest
Cause you're in my mess
Even if it don't make sense, I'll rest
Cause your faithfulness hasn't failed me yet
I know You got me
You got this
I will rest
In the unknown I am known
Your love has always seen me
I am hidden, protected
In the shadow of your wings
Remind my soul you're still able
For the one, you'd leave the ninety-nine behind
You're in control, you don't let go
I will rest
In the wilderness
In the violence of the ocean
Rest
Cause you're in my mess
Even if it don't make sense, I'll rest
Cause your faithfulness hasn't failed me yet
I know You got me
You got this
I will rest
When the darkness lifts
And I'll sing of how you brought me out of the wilderness
How you told the skies and seas to rest
Oh your faithfulness hasn't failed me yet
I know You got me
You got this
I will rest

I want to see your face in every kind of light
I desire to see your face in every possible light
In fields of dawn and forests of the night
I want to see your face in every possible environment, whether it is a sunrise or in the darkness of night surrounded by trees
And when you stand before the candles on a cake
During those moments when you blow out the candles on your birthday cake, allow me to be the one to hear the wish that you make to yourself
Oh, let me be the one to hear the silent wish you make
Allow me to be the only one to hear your silent wish at your special moment
What are you doing the rest of your life?
What are your plans for the rest of your life?
North and South and East and West of your life
Regardless of where you go in any direction, I want to be there with you in your life
I have only one request of your life
The only favor I ask of you in your life
That you spend it all with me
Is that you spend the rest of your life with me
All the seasons and the times of your days
All the changes in the weather and times of your life
All the nickels and the dimes of your days
All the small moments in your life, including the little joys and sorrows
Let the reasons and the rhymes of your days
I want the reasons and the rhythms of your life
All begin and end with me
To start and end your days with me
Those tomorrows waiting deep in your eyes
I see the tomorrow's you're anticipating deep within your eyes
In the world of love that you keep in your eyes
I see the intense passion for love that you harbor in your eyes
I'll awaken what's asleep in your eyes
I'll trigger the feelings in your eyes that you haven't unraveled yet
It may take a kiss or two
I'll achieve that by giving you a couple of kisses
Through all of my life
Throughout the whole of my life
Summer, Winter, Spring, and Fall of my life
Through all the seasons of the year in my life
All I ever will recall of my life
I would always remember
Is all of my life with you
That every moment of my life was lived with you
