Verse 1
It's a lie
You've gotta have something wise to say
You've gotta make it all okay
That bar's too high
But if it's your only card to play
Of course you'll stay away
Pre-Chorus
But what if Your nearness
Lightened my burden?
What if compassion
Looked like being present?
Chorus
From the head down
A lamp burning in the darkness
From the head down
Oil softening the hardness
From the head down
I see that He isn't distant
From the head down
His love is reaching for me
From the head down
Verse 2
It might feel small
But it's more than you could ever know
It's kept my heart afloat
The law of love
Fulfilled as you come under the yoke
And walk with me to its home
Pre-Chorus
Your greatest kindness
Is not answering questions
It's just when You listen
And believe when I can't
Chorus
From the head down (From the head, from the head down)
A lamp burning in the darkness
From the head down (From the head, from the head down)
Oil softening the hardness
From the head down (From the head, from the head down)
I see that He isn't distant
'Cause from the head down
His love is reaching for me
From the head down
From the head down
Bridge
You don't have to have it all
Nobody's got it together
We're all notes in the song
We sing redemption to each other
Chorus
From the head down, head
From the head down
From the head down (From the head, from the head down)
A lamp burning in the darkness
From the head down (From the head, from the head down)
Oil softening the hardness
From the head down
I see that He isn't distant
'Cause From the head down
His love is reaching for me
From the head down, from the head
From the head down, from the head
From the head down, from the head
From the head down
Outro
Mm, I see He isn't distant
