(INTRO) (A soft, walking bassline enters. A brush-style drum kit provides a gentle, swaying rhythm. A light Rhodes piano plays sparkling, jazzy chords.) (HOOK) (Velvety, soft vocals) I’m breathing in the quiet, I’m exhaling the stress Finding my rhythm in a Holy Rest It’s a Sunday for my spirit, a calm for my goal Yeah, I’m living in a Sabbath Soul. (VERSE 1) The world wants my hustle, the world wants my time But I’m leaving the ladder I was trying to climb Six days of running, six days of "do" But this seventh day, Jesus, I’m just being with You The phone is on silent, the shadows are sweet I’m letting the hurry fall away from my feet. (PRE-CHORUS) (The piano melody becomes more fluid and "water-like") You’re the God of the rhythm, the God of the pause I’m stepping outside of the gravity’s laws I don’t have to earn it, I don’t have to try I’m just a child in the light of Your eye. (CHORUS) (Full Bossa Nova sway—very smooth and lounge-like) Oh, it’s a Sabbath Soul, a beautiful slow Letting Your love be the only thing I know No heavy burdens, no shadows of doubt Just learning what "peace" is all about Like a garden in the morning, perfectly whole I’m resting in my Sabbath Soul. (VERSE 2) There’s music in the stillness, there’s a song in the air I’m finding a sanctuary everywhere In the steam of the coffee, in the turn of the page You’re the peace that survives in this digital age You’re restoring the years that the locusts stole In the quiet of a Sabbath Soul. (BRIDGE) (Music strips back—just the upright bass and a soft hum) Cease... (cease) And desist... (and desist) Just be still... And know He is... (Build up slightly with soft vocal harmonies) Know He is God. (CHORUS) Oh, it’s a Sabbath Soul, a beautiful slow Letting Your love be the only thing I know No heavy burdens, no shadows of doubt Just learning what "peace" is all about Like a garden in the morning, perfectly whole I’m resting in my Sabbath Soul. (OUTRO) (Soft jazz piano improvisation fading out) Mmm, just rest. Take a breath. It is finished. (Final soft brush on the cymbal)
