lyrics

Verse
Where the Tigris and
Euphrates meet
Goat paths pass as city streets
Death finds both
the strong and meek
And measures out our lives
One day in the gunner’s ring
A nearby cellphone got a ping
The angels all began to sing
As we got blown up in the sky


Chorus
Then a still small voice said you can always come back
No matter how far you think you’ve strayed
When your world’s turned over and your sky’s turned black
I’ll ease your burdens, do not be afraid

Verse
After I had left the Cav
You came along, made me a dad
Job markets looking pretty bad
So I stayed home and hung around

Years they passed and things weren’t right
I’d black out screaming in the night
You watched me try to take my life
As cops threw me to the ground

Chorus
Then a still small voice said you can always come back
No matter how far you think you’ve strayed
When your world’s turned over and your sky’s turned black
I’ll ease your burdens, do not be afraid


Verse
I was so sick so many years
A lethal mix of hate and fear
No reason I should still be here
Or even be alive

But now I know a God above
And that living is the same as love
Want to be a dad that you’re proud of
For a long, long, long time


Chorus
Then a still small voice said you can always come back
No matter how far you think you’ve strayed
When your world’s turned over and your sky’s turned black
I’ll easy your burdens, do not be afraid

Do not be afraid
Be not afraid
I am not afraid
Be not afraid
