kim walker-smith Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Standing with my hands held high
The valley will never take my song
Find me in the desert
Holding onto You for life
The desert will never take my song
Oh, the desert will never take my song
I will praise You
I wonโฒt let the stones cry
I won't let the stones cry out
I will praise You
Something in me has to
I wonโฒt let the stones cry
I won't let the stones cry out
Find me with the promise
Dancing where You prophesied
Still shouting of everything You've done
High up on the mountain
I was made to testify
Forever, You will have my song
Oh, forever, You will have my song
And I will praise You
I will praise You
I wonโฒt let the stones cry
I wonโฒt let the stones cry out
I will praise You
Something in me has to
I won't let the stones cry
I wonโฒt let the stones cry out
The longer the wait, the longer I'll praise
The stronger the pain, the stronger my faith grows
The higher the need, the higher Iโฒll reach
The greater the cost, the more I'll believe for
The longer the wait, the longer Iโฒll praise
The stronger the pain, the stronger my faith grows
The higher the need, the higher I'll reach
The greater the cost, the more I'll believe for
And I will praise You
I will praise You
I wonโฒt let the stones cry
I wonโฒt let the stones cry out
I will praise You
Something in me has to
I won't let the stones cry
I wonโฒt let the stones cry out
I will praise You, hey
I will praise You
I won't let the stones cry
I wonโฒt let the stones cry out
I will praise You
Something in me has to
I won't let the stones cry
I wonโฒt let the stones cry out
And I will praise You
I will praise You
I won't let the stones cry
I won't let the stones cry out
I will praise You
Something in me has to
I wonโฒt let the stones cry
I wonโฒt let the stones cry out
And I will praise You
I will praise You, come on
I won't let the stones cry
I wonโฒt let the stones cry out
I will praise You
Something in me has to
I won't let the stones cry out (I wonโฒt let the stones cry)
Oh, I'm gonna praise You, oh-oh (I wonโฒt let the stones cry out)
I will praise You
I will praise You
I won't let the stones cry
I won't let the stones cry out
I will praise You
Something in me has to
I wonโฒt let the stones cry, oh
(I wonโฒt let the stones cry out)
I will praise You
I will praise You
I won't let the stones cry
I wonโฒt let the stones cry out
I will praise You
Something in me has to
I won't let the stones cry
I wonโฒt let the stones cry out

I love ALL of your music Kim and you are my most favorite Christian artist. Our LORD and savior, JESUS CHRIST, is really really using your voice to ignite us in these dark times. I have to say that Breathing room has become one of my absolute favorites. I was playing it as I was cooking and I felt the Holy Spirit all over me as I sung out the lyrics. I had chills all over me and I listened to it back to back and just kept feeling HIS presence.
You have a mighty voice sister and your music penetrates into my heart!!!!! I love you big!!!!โค๏ธ
