This song captures the gritty, stubborn decision to trust God’s character and promises even when the headlines are terrifying and your feelings are screaming at you to panic.

Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I stood firm when the heavy shadows fell
When the floor shook, I knew my Anchor well
Faced the giant, held my breath, and closed my eyes
And watched Your glory split the stormy skies
But normal mornings bring a different kind of war
The quiet friction hiding just behind the door
The missed appointments and the minor, heavy strains
Where I forget that You are sovereign in the plains
[Pre-Chorus]
My heart is telling me to fear
But I will remind it You are near
I look to the One who rules the night...
[Chorus]
You held the storm, now hold the day
Take my anxiety away
In the heavy crisis or in the dust
Step by step, it’s a choice to trust
[Verse 2]
If You didn’t spare Your holy Son
If the greatest rescue has already won
Why do I worry over numbers on a screen?
Or all the broken pieces in the routine?
You hold the sparrows, and You count the falling hair
There’s not a moment that escapes Your care
[Pre-Chorus]
My heart is telling me to fear
But I will remind it You are near
I look to the One who rules the night...
[Chorus]
You held the storm, now hold the day
Take my anxiety away
In the heavy crisis or in the dust
Step by step, it’s a choice to trust
[Bridge]
Be still, my soul, and tell the heart to hear
The God of ages is the One who’s standing near
His wisdom’s deeper than the paths I try to trace
His love is wider than the doubts that I embrace
Every hour, every second, every mundane mile
Is working glory through the ordinary trial!
[Pre-Chorus]
My heart is telling me to fear
But I will remind it You are near
I look to the One who rules the night...
[Chorus]
You held the storm, now hold the day
Take my anxiety away
In the heavy crisis or in the dust
Step by step, it’s a choice to trust
[Outro]
No grand display, just a simple design
To trust in Your understanding, and give up mine
Step by step...
In the ordinary day.
