Edens
by Amanda Cook

Album: State of the Union

Verse 1
When I doubt what I used to believe
And I drown in my anxiety
You are here in these waters with me
As always (Always)
My despair doesn't scare You away
Nor my demons, my questions, my pain
Your compassion outlives all my shame
As always, always

Chorus
You are here
Closer than the heart in my chest
Truer than the thoughts in my head
Even in the shadow of death, I know You're with me
Here
Catching my tears in Your hands
Lifting my head when I can't
Redeeming in seconds the life I thought was wasted
You make Edens out of wastelands

Verse 2
When the others have left, You remain
Through the highs and the lows just the same
'Cause your kindness outlasts and outweighs
As always, always

Chorus
You are here
Closer than the heart in my chest
Truer than the thoughts in my head
Even in the shadow of death, I know You're with me
Here
Catching my tears in Your hands
Lifting my head when I can't
Redeeming in seconds the life I thought was wasted
You make Edens out of wastelands, oh

Bridge
And you're redeeming everything
Everything, everything
You're redeeming everything
Everything, everything
You're redeeming everything
Everything, everything
You're redeeming everything
Everything, everything, oh
You make Edens out of wastelands
You make Edens out of wastelands

Chorus
You are here
Closer than the heart in my chest
Truer than the thoughts in my head
Even in the shadow of death, I know You're with me
Right here
Catching my tears in Your hands
Lifting my head when I can't
Redeeming in seconds the years I thought I wasted
You make Edens out of wastelands
You make Edens out of wastelands
