Better View

Lyrics

VERSE 1

You ever feel like you’re walking in circles
Not really sure how you got back where you started
Don’t really get why things don’t seem to be clearer
Eyes are kinda blurry, might need a new prescription
Well
Maybe my heart is a mirror
Hold it up to see how I’m actually feeling
I’m just trying to get how things could be different
I ain’t even lyin’, it’s pretty hard to see it

CHORUS

But You’re giving me a better view
Like windows open
Sunlight shining through my bedroom curtains
You’re giving me a better view
I can feel it
With Your help I see a little bit clearer
So good, so good the way You see
See everything differently
It’s a better view (so much better)
It’s a better view (so much better)

VERSE 2

Sometimes it feels like we move in slow motion
Like by the time I speak, I’ve already missed the moment
Not always sure how I can even make a difference
Eyes are kinda blurry, and I don’t really see it
But
Maybe I’m made to be different
Maybe these feelings all point to something bigger
Maybe I should kinda lean back and just trust
That if I do my part You’re gonna do something with it

Behind The Music

This song was written for anyone who has trouble choosing to trust God when they face hardships. It can be scary to keep moving forward when you can’t see where you’re going. We can be confident that God sees the big picture and is trustworthy to reveal exactly what we need to see to take our next step. Walking with Him doesn’t mean we’ll see everything perfectly, but with God’s help, we will have a better view.

Even though the lyrics ask tough questions, the music of this song has a lightness to it, playing off the idea that we feel lighter when we trust God. With clean guitar sounds, this song has a laidback, chill vibe that’s perfect for when you’re hanging out with friends.
