We Haven't Lost It All Yet...

Michelle, 21. I'm always somewhere between Steel City and New York City. History and English Literature major at Hofstra University. :-)

"Never before had it been so obvious that although I'd spent my entire life learning, there was a lot of stuff I still didn't know"

Be Still

Be still and know that I’m with you
Be still and know that I am here
Be still and know that I’m with you
Be still, be still, and know

When darkness comes upon you
And covers you with fear and shame
Be still and know that I’m with you
And I will say your name

If terror falls upon your bed
And sleep no longer comes
Remember all the words I said
Be still, be still, and know

And when you go through the valley
And the shadow comes down from the hill
If morning never comes to be
Be still, be still, be still

If you forget the way to go
And lose where you came from
If no one is standing beside you
Be still and know I am

Be still and know that I’m with you
Be still and know I am       -The Fray

I will sing this to my children one day. When it’s 4 am and they can’t sleep as babies. The first time they fall off their bikes and get scratched up. The first time they get made fun of at school. And when they’re older and they don’t want to speak to me, I’ll sing it to myself hoping one day they’ll understand how much I love them. And then years later on their wedding days, I hope they dance to this song with their spouse. And when they have their first child, I hope they sing it to that beautiful little baby, and finally understand everything it means.
