Verse 1 A tear slipped slowly down her cheek in the stillness of the night. She’d carried every worry till her chest was drawn up tight. It seemed that no one knew her fears, or heard her silent plea. The room was still around her, as lonely as could be. Chorus 1 If only someone knew her heart, someone who could help her bear every fear about tomorrow, every burden, every care. If only there were loving hands to hold her fears so tight, someone to stay beside her through the stillness of the night. Verse 2 Beyond the glass, the stars were burning, spread across a sky so grand. Worlds she couldn’t count were turning, each one held within God’s hands. Yet the One who held the planets, who sustained the endless skies, saw the tear upon her cheek and red the fears within her eyes. Chorus 2 He said, Give Me what you’re carrying. what You were never meant to bear every fear about tomorrow, every burden, every care. What is heavy in your hands is not too much for Mine. I am holding worlds together. Let Me hold your heart tonight. Verse 3 A little sparrow greeted morning, singing out its humble song. God had kept it through the darkness, watched it through the night so long. The same One who watched the sparrow saw her rise to face the day, knew the courage no one noticed, knew the words she couldn’t say. Chorus 2 He said, Give Me what you’re carrying. what You were never meant to bear every fear about tomorrow, every burden, every care. What is heavy in your hands is not too much for Mine. I am holding worlds together. Let Me hold your heart tonight. Bridge There may still be unanswered questions. There may be tears that fall. Giving Him the weight she carried didn’t mean she knew it all. But the God who wasn’t burdened by the countless worlds above was not weighed down by her worries; He could hold them all with love. Verse 4 She was learning she could trust Him with the things she couldn’t know, with the fears that kept returning, with the things she couldn’t control. And when another fear came knocking, she knew what she could do— place it in the hands that held the stars and let Him carry that one too. Final Chorus Give Me what you’re carrying. what You were never meant to bear every fear about tomorrow, every burden, every care. What is heavy in your hands is not too much for Mine. I am holding worlds together. Let Me hold your heart tonight. Outro The stars still traveled on their courses. The little sparrow sang. And the tear that felt unnoticed had fallen in His hands.
