Lyrics

[Intro][Energy: Low]
(stomp stomp β€” just feet and breath)
πŸŽ™οΈ Yeah
This ain't a fairy tale
This is faith in a fight

[Verse 1 β˜•][Energy: Low]
Shepherd in the field
Sling in my hand
Still smell the sheep
Dirt in my sandals
Oil on my head but I'm dodging spears
Blessed and hunted at the same time

Anointed in a tent
Then I'm running for my life
Writing pretty songs while I'm hiding in a cave
Table in the presence of the ones who wanna kill me
Peace in the panic
That's the promise that You gave

[Pre-Chorus][Energy: Build]
Not some stained-glass story
Not some easy faith
This is blood and oil
This is grace in the flame

[Chorus πŸ”₯][Energy: High]
The Lord is my shepherd
Even when I'm shaking
Goodness and mercy
Chasing me through the aching

This is my valley walk
Not some perfect painting
I won't fear the dark
'Cause Your love keeps staying

The Lord is my shepherd
Right here where it hurts
I still say You're faithful
Even when it burns

[Verse 2 β˜•][Energy: Low]
King in a palace with a broken house
Crown on my head
Blood on my hands
Rod and Your staff still pulling me back
From the mess I made of Your plans

You restore my soul
Not my reputation
You prepare that table while my name's in the dirt
You don't promise​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
