Right Now
by Amy Ballinger
 

When life just seems to be a day away
And my words are only getting in the way;
You say my offering is sweet, but it really can't compare with laying
yourself right here at my feet

Chorus:
'cause when it's all been said before,
that's when my knees just hit the floor
When the perfect lines have all been taken
that's when you shake me up and say
I'm real, I'm here, that's all you need to know right now;
I'm Truth, I'm Light, and everything will be alright for you my dear

When I wonder who I am
and if anyone's my friend
and does anyone else feel this way anyway
When i try hard to compete
with the world and all its' many things
I find myself with chains around my tiny wings
And I try to make some sense, with some clever reference
To bring before you just to hear you sing to me...

but when it's all been said before, that's when my knees just hit the
floor
when the perfect lines have all been taken
that's when you shake me up and say...

I'm Real, don't fear
you don't need to bring me flowers right now
Don't try to impress
I'll take and give you rest for you are weak, and I am strong
and I am with you as the day is long
and you're my child, my dear
you'll find your comfort here and be alright
Right now
that's all you need to know...right now

So I close my eyes and fix them on you now
and offer up the only thing I've left somehow
I lift my hands all soaked with sin
knowing You and You alone
will hold them tight and make me whole again

And though it's all been said before
you know my knees just hit the floor
though the perfect lines have all been taken
You come and wake me up and say...
I'm real, I'm here
that's all you need to know right now
I'm Truth, I'm Light
and everything will be alright for you...
I'm real, don't fear
You don't have to bring me flowers right now
don't try to impress
I'll take and give you rest for you are weak
and I am strong
and I am with you as the day is long
and you're my child, my dear
you'll find your comfort here and be alright,
right now
that's all you need to know...
right now
