[Intro] (Soft atmospheric pad, a single piano note, a breath) [Verse 1] I used to think that I was on my own That every battle had to be faced alone But I was never walking through the fire by myself The whole time, I was being held Every fall I took was a lesson in disguise Every tear I cried was a river in Your eyes I don't have to earn the love that I receive I just have to open up and breathe [Pre-Chorus] I'm not strong because I hold it all together I'm strong because I know I'm not the tether Why am I so peaceful in the middle of the storm? Because I finally let go of the need to perform [Chorus] I am carried, I am held By a love that never failed I am guided, I am known By the One who made the throne I don't have to have the answers, I just have to trust the plan I am carried by a grace I'll never understand I am carried [Verse 2] I tried to be the captain of a ship I couldn't steer Tried to navigate the waters through the fog of my own fear But the more I tried to force it, the more I lost my way Now I'm learning how to let the current lead the day There's a peace that doesn't come from getting what I want It comes from knowing that I'm already enough The same force that holds the planets in their place Is the same force that's been holding me with grace [Pre-Chorus] I'm not strong because I hold it all together I'm strong because I know I'm not the tether Why am I so peaceful in the middle of the storm? Because I finally let go of the need to perform [Chorus] I am carried, I am held By a love that never failed I am guided, I am known By the One who made the throne I don't have to have the answers, I just have to trust the plan I am carried by a grace I'll never understand I am carried [Bridge] (Soft, intimate, close-mic) So I'll lay down the armor, lay down the fight I'll trust the unseen hand to guide me through the night When I'm weak, I'm strongest, when I fall, I'm free The only thing that's asked of me is just to be Just to be [Final Chorus] (Full but tender, layered harmonies) I am carried, I am held By a love that never failed I am guided, I am known By the One who made the throne I don't have to have the answers, I just have to trust the plan I am carried by a grace I'll never understand I am carried [Outro] (A final breath, a single piano note, then silence)
