Strive to Be
Sticks and Stones
[Verse 1: Rob Michelson]
I’ve been awake for a while now
It’s way too late to be thinking ’bout
All the careless things I’ve done wrong
They see mistakes I’ve been making now
But I’ve been trying to lay ’em down
Haven’t been myself for so long
[Pre-Chorus: Rob Michelson]
It’s been a while since I came to You
I hope You love me no matter what I do
I need somebody, a God to hold on to
Through all the highs and lows
[Chorus: Rob Michelson]
They’ve been throwing sticks and stones, oh
I’ve been feeling so alone, oh
I need Your help to take control of
The way I live, like the way You did
Yeah, I know that You can give me hope, and
You love me even when I’m broken
You say You’ll never let me go, and
You light my road, and You heal my soul
When they’re throwing their sticks and stones
[Verse 2: Rob Michelson]
Got broken bones, and I’m feeling bruised
Somehow I know You can get me through
You’re the only cure for my pain
And when I’m left here all on my own
I know that You’re never gonna go
And You’re gonna make it okay
[Pre-Chorus: Rob Michelson]
It’s been a while since I came to You
I hope You love me no matter what I do
I need somebody, a God to hold on to
Through all the highs and lows
[Chorus: Rob Michelson]
They’ve been throwing sticks and stones, oh
I’ve been feeling so alone, oh
I need Your help to take control of
The way I live, like the way You did
Yeah, I know that You can give me hope, and
You love me even when I’m broken (Broken)
You say You’ll never let me go, and
You light my road, and You heal my soul
When they’re throwing their sticks and stones
[Verse 3: Rob Michelson]
You’re the only one that knows me
You can see the whole thing
And I know that You love me, too
So I’m getting on my knees to make it right with You, yeah
You’re the only one that knows me (Knows me)
You can see the whole thing (Whole thing)
And I know that You love me, too, yeah
I need You 'cause
[Chorus: Rob Michelson]
They’ve been throwing sticks and stones, oh
I’ve been feeling so alone, oh (Been feeling so alone)
I need Your help to take control of (Woah)
The way I live, like the way You did
Yeah, I know that You can give me hope, and (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
You love me even when I’m broken (Even when I'm broken)
You say You’ll never let me go, and
You light my road, and You heal my soul
When they’re throwing their sticks and stones
[Outro: Rob Michelson]
Woah, woah (Throwing their sticks and)
Woah, woah (Throwing their sticks and stones, yeah)
Woah, woah, woah
Throwing their sticks and stones
