Let it Turn
VERSE 1 The leaves don't hold on when it's time to go They don't argue with the wind, they just let go And I have watched them every year and wondered Why I make so hard what they make look easy Letting go, letting turn, letting fall VERSE 2 There's a season for the holding and the growing And a season for the releasing and the rest And the tree doesn't mourn what it is losing It just trusts that it was made for all of this Every season, every turn, every fall PRE-CHORUS So teach me how to let it turn The way the leaves do without fear Teach me how to trust the season That what is coming is as good as what was here Let it turn CHORUS Let it turn, let it turn Let the colors come and let the cold move in Let it turn, let it turn Every ending is a place to start again What I'm holding I can offer up What I'm grieving I can give to grace Let the season do the thing that seasons do Let it turn Let it all turn VERSE 3 There is something in the fall that speaks of mercy The way the whole world burns before it rests The most beautiful it gets is right before the letting go And maybe that is just true of the best things The best things, they turn golden as they go (pre-chorus) So teach me how to let it turn The way the leaves do without fear Teach me how to trust the season That what is coming is as good as what was here Let it turn (chorus) Let it turn, let it turn Let the colors come and let the cold move in Let it turn, let it turn Every ending is a place to start again What I'm holding I can offer up What I'm grieving I can give to grace Let the season do the thing that seasons do Let it turn Let it all turn BRIDGE (prayerful, quiet) I don't want to be the branch that won't release I don't want to hold so tight I miss the beauty There is grace in the going, grace in the turning There is something waiting on the other side of this Something new, something good Something I could not have seen Unless I let this go Let it go Let it turn Let it all turn gold FINAL CHORUS Let it turn, let it turn Let the colors come and let the cold move in Let it turn, let it turn Every ending is a place to start again What I'm holding I can offer up What I'm grieving I can give to grace Let the season do the thing that seasons do (tag, slow and resolving) Let it turn Let it go gold Let it all turn Let it turn
