Take This Slowly by The Gray Havens Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If I took all that I got
And spread it out on this table
It might not seem like a lot
A once glimmering joy
Slowly fading from view
All the change in my pockets, not enough
And this picture of you

[Pre-Chorus]
Still I’ve heard all that I have in the moment is hardly a sign
Of everything coming my way
I believe when I need it, it will be mine

[Chorus]
So let’s take this slowly
All I need is coming
But it’s just beyond what I can see
So if my eyes press forward in fierce alarm
Just turn my head back to see
To see how we got this far
And I’ll be alright
[Verse 2]
I’m not asking for mountains of riches
No silver or gold
Don’t need fame or fancier things I can’t take when I go
I’m just asking for grace
Grace to carry on
Grace to take joy at my place at the table
And the rock that it’s standing on

[Pre-Chorus]
Still I’ve heard all that I have in a moment is hardly a sign
Of everything coming my way
I believe when I need it, it will be mine

[Chorus]
So let’s take this slowly
All I need is coming
But it’s just beyond what I can see
So if my eyes press forward in fierce alarm
Just turn my head back to see
To see how we got this far
And I’ll be alright

[Bridge]
And even when I’m broke down
Even when what I’ve got now
Is falling faster down beneath the cracks
And I don’t know when it’s coming back around
Even then I’ll be calling out louder
Loud enough to wake ’em up believing
I believe I will see it done
I believe what I will hold
What I hold will be enough
Will be enough
[Chorus]
So let’s take this slowly
All I need is coming
But it’s just beyond what I can see
So if my eyes press forward in fierce alarm
Just turn my head back to see
To see how we got, got this far
And I’ll be alright
It’s gonna be alright
It’s gonna be alright
It’s gonna be alright
