We gotta rest fill it up

We gotta rest fill it up

Why’s it so hard, so hard to slow it down

Why’s it so hard, so hard to remember how

Supposed to be a bright spark in the dark, burnin’ loud

Been goin’ so hard, so hard I'm burnin’ out

We gotta rest fill it up

We gotta rest fill it up

Livin’ in the world in the clutches of counterfeit crutches

Tellin’ me you matter 'bout as much as you’re doin’ today

Crippled caught in the clutches of counterfeit crutches

Sayin’ better hurry up and matter better rush it, to counter the claim

Let’s pray

Singin’ father bless your name

Let your kingdom come

Give me eyes give help me see and believe your son

Give me faith let me rest in the work he’s done

'Cause the work is done
