simply a song about encouragement

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You've been carrying rain
In your folded hands
Been walking on
A road that bends

I see the weight
Behind your smile
Still you keep on
One more mile

[Pre-Chorus]
Hold on, hold on
You're closer than you know
The bend is near
And the current starts to show

[Chorus]
I know you'll make it
With a little encouragement
And you'll find your way
To the river that flows through your life

Yes I know you'll make it
With a little encouragement
Cause a person like you
Won't just lie down and cry

[Verse 2]
You've got mud on your shoes
And hope in your chest
Some days you feel
Like you failed the test

But every scar
Is a line that stays
Saying you were built
For harder days

[Pre-Chorus]
Hold on, hold on
Don't let go tonight
There's a deeper pull
And it's guiding you right

[Chorus]
I know you'll make it
With a little encouragement
And you'll find your way
To the river that flows through your life

Yes I know you'll make it
With a little encouragement
Cause a person like you
Won't just lie down and cry

[Bridge]
When the banks run high
And the sky turns gray
Keep your eyes on the water
It will lead you safe

You are not lost
You are moving through
One small step
Is all you need do

[Chorus]
I know you'll make it
With a little encouragement
And you'll find your way
To the river that flows through your life

Yes I know you'll make it
With a little encouragement
Cause a person like you
Won't just lie down and cry

Cause a person like you
Won't just lie down and cry
