Jonathan Young
In One Breath
[Verse 1]
Clouds above just passing by
Bodies warmed by candle light
Strangers born and strangers die
Can you feel your insignificance?

Some great cause or some great blight
Not in creed nor in device
Drawn to something I can't find
"Wonder" is the greatest mystery

[Chorus]
And in one breath, I don a crown of thorns
And in one breath, I feel my spirit soar
And in one breath, it's all made new
And in one breath, "it can't be true"
In just one breath, the pain inside will soon subside

[Verse 2]
Flooding waters fill a home
Wash away all that we know
True love's face, I can't recall
Memories; they fade and so do I

Terrified of what's to come
Paralyzed by "not enough"
Peace received by giving up
Even still, can wellness fill my soul?
[Chorus]
And in one breath, I curse the ones I love
And in one breath, forgiven for what I've done
And in one breath, I feel betrayed
And in one breath, "I should have stayed"
In just one breath, the pain inside will soon subside

[Bridge]
And at the end of it all, will I know more than now?
Will I stop questioning "why?" and learning simply how
How to live with what I have and what's in front of me
I have relinquished control and that has set me free

In this life we lead (And at the end of it all, will I know more than now?)
There's so much to see (Will I stop questioning "why?" and learning simply how)
Friends we've yet to make (How to live with what I have and what's in front of me)
Fears we've yet to face (I have relinquished control and that has set me free)

Though our minds will fall (And at the end of it all, will I know more than now?)
Our love will tell the tale (Will I stop questioning "why?" and learning simply how)
Let salvation come (How to live with what I have and what's in front of me)
Let redemption reign (I have relinquished control and that has set me free)

[Chorus]
In one breath, I realize, I'm alive
And in one breath, somehow, there's still time
So much of life, I lay to rest
But there's still some not written yet
In one breath, just one breath
In one breath
