Story Behind the Song
I wrote this song at a time when I was feeling completely overloaded by my world and the things that were happening to the people I love. I have such a hard time letting go of my worries when it comes to people I care about, but what I (and all of us) have to understand is that God wants to take the worry away; He is in control, and His Will will be done. When the weight on your shoulders feels too heavy, there is comfort in knowing He will carry you -- you just have to be willing to let Him pick you up.
Lyrics
*verse 1*
i watch him sit quietly alone there
my soul ripped to shreds, broken with despair
he had sixty years to make that choice
to sing Your song -- to hear Your voice
but still here he sits, his reality gone
where are You now? where are You now?
sometimes it feels like i'm miles away
those are the times that i know
*refrain*
i'm faithless -- give me faith
i'm sinful -- (please) show me grace
show me the love (i know) i don't deserve
speak to me now words i've never heard --
carry my world
*verse 2*
You lifted the veil but i don't want to see
the pain and the loss, the futility surrounding me
she chases tornadoes trying not to get sucked in
she's young, and she's weak -- she falls again
she runs to me for help when i know she needs You
how can i pick her up again? how can i bear that burden?
sometimes the pain and the anger are too thick
i don't want to find You but i know
*refrain*
*bridge*
there is no fear in a handful of dust
there is no fear in a handful of dust
there is no fear in a handful of dust
no fear no fear no fear
no fear no fear no fear
You give me hope, You give me faith
You give me strength, You give me grace
You answer me, i see Your face
love i can feel, life i can taste
spread Your love around this place
spread Your love around this place
carry my world
carry my world
carry my world
carry my world
