John Bryan - Just BE (feat. Phillip Joubert, Bethany Joubert & David Knox)
I just want to tell you Lord how thankfulI am that you have grace for me in the process
I really feel I am your son
Because you don't treat me like one of your projects
You really listen to me in my pain
It ain't like you don't have nothing to say
And you ain't take nothing away
You are always safe
When my heart is going crazy
There are days when I wake up feeling lazy
And more (Moore) feelings
Are whooping (Whoopi on) on my conscience like I'm Swazi
The ghosts of my past telling me
What to not do and be
While my flesh creeping up
Got me looking at the world like there's no keeping up
Then I start freezing up
Like it's not you, it's me
Losing my soul tryna prove myself on the book and IG
So codependent
Tryna be something I'm not though
It's like you tell me just look in the mirror and do what I got todo
To love me the way you made me cause you do
Hairs wavy to like my life
And the baby coming soon
I love my wife, and the way she coming through in the clutch
She's supportive God just like you
She loves me just like you
I'm feeling like John, the one who Jesus loves yea
And not John the one who loved Jesus
I lose time thinking you love me like a thesis
That I'm stuck in disbelief
Cause my feelings are out of sync so I sing
I just want a safe place
A place where I belong and I can just be me
A place where I'm accepted and free
No value from do's and don'ts, a place I can just be
I recognize my being has doing (Uh)
And and my doing has been looping up some nooses (Uh)
I don't know how to just be myself
Because most times I see myself
I see a man that isn't where he's supposed to be
But God you're holding me close
Showing me I'm everything I'm supposed to be
McReynolds prophesied that comparison kills
And what I compare to your son
Is impairing my skills
but Jesus
If you and contentment are great gain
And your grace is never ending
Then gratefulness will lead my soul to your will
I don't have to be impressive
Or stress about Spotify selections
Or the vomit in comments
Or if they like my headband
I get to be me and do curls
Chai's latte watching New Girl
Thanking God for mercy when I got drunk and puked in an Uber
Stressing less about if music will pay or give me a tumor
I'm thankful for every journal filled with doubts
Of wether or not You work
I don't have to figure this out today
You gave the space and made a way
Forgave my sin
And now I get relationship from crazy grace
Thankful for my worst moments and urges
Used to show me it's okay to be imperfect
And when I fall hard I don't lose an ounce of worth
I am proud to be your son fully loved and fully heard
I am covered by the blood and fully redeemed
Now I get to be me but clean
Get to be me but clean
God you are my safe place
The place where I belong and I can just be me
The place where I'm accepted and free
No value from do's and don'ts, a place I can just be
And I know you're my loving Savior
Forgiving Creator,
My safe place to be weak!
Even though you know all my failure,
I know you're my maker,
And you have made me to be free!
And I know you're my loving Savior
(God you are my safe place )
Forgiving Creator
(The place where I belong)
My safe place to be weak!
(And I can just be me)
Even though you know all my failure
(The place where I'm accepted and free)
I know you're my maker,
(No value from do's and don'ts)
And you have made me to be free!
(A place I can just be)
God you are my safe place
The place where I belong and I can just be me
The place where I'm accepted and free
No value from do's and don'ts, a place I can just be
God, Grant me the Serenity to accept the things I cannot change
The courage to change the things I can
And the wisdom to know the difference
Living one day at a time
Enjoying one moment at a time
Accepting hardship as a pathway to peace
Taking as Jesus did this sinful world as it is
Not as I would have it
Trusting that you will make all things right
If I surrender to your will
So that I may be reasonably happy in this life
And supremely happy with You forever in the next
Amen
