Keep Breathing

Keep Breathing
Words & Music by Scott Krippayne & Steve Siler

Sometimes it feels like the sun will never rise
Like the birds will never sing again
The night is dark, not one star in the sky
and no one you can call a friend
In so deep
It feels like you are drowning
So afraid
You can hardly catch your breath

Keep breathing
Take it in and let it out
Keep Breathing
It’s gonna be OK
Believe in
A power greater than what you are going through
When you don’t know what to do
Keep Breathing

You know the one that reaches through the hurt
A comfort for the broken heart
But in this place even prayers are painful
Life isn’t ‘sposed to be this hard
When relief is more than you can hope for
And the wounds seem deeper than your faith

CHORUS

Don’t give up
Even though you want to
Don’t give in
You’ve already come this far
It’s alright
The Lord knows what you’re needing
And he’ll meet you where you are, just

CHORUS

Keep Breathing. That’s what I need to do right now. Even though I feel like I don’t know what to do, just keep breathing. Not since I was little has music ever had such an impact on me. Thank you.
