After The Amen

After The Amen

[Verse 1]

I was folding up my fear

In a paper grocery bag

By the chapel on the corner

With my name still in the cracks

You said, baby, come on in

Even if your hands are shaking

I brought all my broken pieces

And I left a little lighter

[Pre-Chorus]

When the floor starts moving

And my knees won't hold

You sing through the panic

You sing through the cold

[Chorus]

After the amen

I still say yes

After the amen

You are my rest

After the amen

I come alive

After the amen

You keep me high

[Verse 2]

Mama kept a blue glass vase

On the sink by the window

Said the rain can wash the dust

But not the road you walked home

I been counting every scar

Like they were little warnings

Now I wear them in the sun

Like they were always mercy

[Pre-Chorus]

When the floor starts moving

And my knees won't hold

You sing through the panic

You sing through the cold

[Chorus]

After the amen

I still say yes

After the amen

You are my rest

After the amen

I come alive

After the amen

You keep me high

[Bridge]

If the dark gets loud tonight

I'll answer back with thunder

If my faith runs out of breath

You breathe me back under

[Final Chorus]

After the amen

I still say yes

After the amen

You are my rest

After the amen

I come alive

After the amen

You keep me high

After the amen

I won't let go

After the amen

I know, I know
