[Verse 1] Coffee in a chipped blue cup Windows cracked to the Sunday rain Phone face down in the hallway drawer Let the quiet say my name Bare feet on the kitchen floor Dust dancing in a crooked beam I got nowhere I gotta be Just a worn-out heart to clean [Chorus] I’m laying my worries down Like boots by the door Like seeds in the ground Breathing in mercy Breathing out the ache Talking to God in the space that we make This little peace This simple home A small sabbath in my bones [Verse 2] Pages of a dog-eared book Soft ink stains where the tears once fell I read the words my grandma loved Hear her voice in the verses still List of all the things I’ve done All the things I never will I hold ‘em up to the morning light Watch them loosen Let them spill [Chorus] I’m laying my worries down Like boots by the door Like seeds in the ground Breathing in mercy Breathing out the ache Talking to God in the space that we make This little peace This simple home A small sabbath in my bones [Bridge] Maybe grace is in the dishes Stacked and waiting by the sink (oh-oh) In the long slow way forgiveness Takes a lifetime Not a blink So I bow my head in the doorway Whisper thanks for what I’ve missed For every broken Borrowed day That still ends up like this [Chorus] I’m laying my worries down Like boots by the door Like seeds in the ground Breathing in mercy Breathing out the ache Talking to God in the space that we make This quiet room This beating soul A small sabbath in my bones
