Faith in My Chest

Lyrics

[Intro] Mama said, keep your word when the room gets loud I took that with me through the whole damn town [Verse 1] Bus pass folded in the Bible by my bed Rent due Friday, still I bowed my head My cousin called from the corner, said he's done with the run I said, take one step, bro, the day ain't done I got old scars showing when the sleeves ride high But grace met me there, never asked me why Now I walk past the same store, same cracked glass door With a little more peace than I had before [Chorus] You kept me when I couldn't keep myself Held me up when I was asking nobody else From the block to the pew, I'm still learning Your way I got faith in my chest for another new day You kept me, You kept me through the hard and the hurt Put a song in my mouth, put my feet on the earth If I stumble, I rise, if I lose, I still pray I got faith in my chest for another new day [Verse 2] No gold chain promise, no perfect past Just a small-town heart trying to make love last I bring my whole mess, not a cleaned-up scene He knows every page and the parts between When the boys talk big, I don't front like I'm brave I tell them who found me when I couldn't get saved We can talk that truth with the door swung wide There's room at the table, come sit by my side [Bridge] When the night feels long, I remember Your name When my hands shake hard, You don't turn away One more breath, one more mile, one more honest prayer I was lost in the dust, but You met me there [Chorus] You kept me when I couldn't keep myself Held me up when I was asking nobody else From the block to the pew, I'm still learning Your way I got faith in my chest for another new day You kept me, You kept me through the hard and the hurt Put a song in my mouth, put my feet on the earth If I stumble, I rise, if I lose, I still pray I got faith in my chest for another new day [Outro] Another new day, I'm still walking Your way Another new day, I'm still walking Your way
