Hillary Scott and the Scott Family - Love Remains Lyrics
Beautiful Messes
Are you spinning in a ladder that keeps on telling you
That you're not good enough
And when you're looking in the mirror
Do you see someone impossible to love?
Full of fragile broken pieces
We're all rough around the edges
We ain't perfect no
We ain't even close
We got holes in our hearts
We got scars we don't show
But all that baggage we
Keep on dragging around
Anytime we start laying down
Lay it down at the foot of the cross
Give it to the one who can carry it all
Even at our worst, to him we ain't lost causes
Just beautiful messes
We're all David's we're all Mary's
We've been liars, thieves and everything between
But don't forget God used the misfits just like us
To do the most amazing things
So bring your thoughts, your flaws, your secrets
And watch him use those broken pieces
We ain't perfect no
We ain't even close
We got holes in our hearts
We got scars we don't show
But all that baggage we
Keep on dragging around
Anytime we start laying down
Lay it down at the foot of the cross
Give it to the one who can carry it all
Even at our worst, to him we ain't lost causes
Just beautiful messes
No matter where you are right now
Let thy grace come pouring down
It won't matter no
No it won't
We ain't perfect no
We ain't even close
We got holes in our hearts
We got scars we don't show
But all that baggage we
Keep on dragging around
Anytime we start laying down
Lay it down at the foot of the cross
Give it to the one who can carry it all
Even at our worst, to him we ain't lose causes
Ooh lay it down at the foot of the cross
Give it to the one who can carry it all
Even at our worst, to him we ain't lost causes
Just beautiful messes
Beautiful messes, yeah

Still
I believe that You are God alone
But sometimes I still try to take control
'Cause I get scared when I can't see the end
And all You want from me is to let go
You're parting waters
Making a way for me
You're moving mountains that I don't even see
You've answered my prayer before I even speak
All You need for me to be is still
I bring my praise before I bring my need
'Cause there's no fear You've not already seen
I rest my heart on all Your promises
'Cause I have seen and know Your faithfulness
You're parting waters
Making a way for me
You're moving mountains that I don't even see
You've answered my prayer before I even speak
All You need for me to be is still
And know that You are God
Be still
And know that You, trust that You are parting waters
Lord, You whispered my name
Oh, You answered my prayer
You're moving mountains
You're parting waters
Making a way for me
You're moving mountains that I don't even see
You've answered my prayer before I even speak
All You need for me to be is still
Be still

Sheltered In The Arms Of God
I feel the touch of hands so kind and tender
They're leading me in paths that I must trod
I'll have no fear
For Jesus walks beside me
For I'm sheltered in the arms of God
So let the storms rage high
The dark clouds rise
They don't worry me
For I'm sheltered, safe, within the arms of God
He walks with me
And naught of earth shall harm me
For I'm sheltered in the arms of God
Soon I shall hear the call from Heaven's portals
Come home my child
It's the last mile you must trod
I'll fall asleep and wake up in God's new Heaven
For I'm sheltered in the arms of God
So let the storms rage high
The dark clouds rise
They don't worry me
For I'm sheltered, safe, within the arms of God
He walks with me
And naught of earth shall harm me
For I'm sheltered in the arms of God
Sheltered, safe within the arms of God, oh
Ooh, ooh

Safe Haven
My papa was a big 'ol man
He held the world and me in the palm of his hand
He held us altogether
The family corner stone
His voice was deep just like his fate
He'd always call me, "sugar babe"
And what I wouldn't give to hear "I love you" one more time
He loved to read John 3:16
Tapped along to hymns we'd sing
He left us so much more than earthly things
Sometimes when there's no answer
Or no reason for the pain
And I just can't wrap my head around the wire of things that come my way
I still believe you hold a place for us in heaven
So even when my faith on earth is shaken
You're my safe haven
He said my home's not here, no I'm not bound
My home is built on higher ground
And where I'm going, oh goodbye don't mean a thing
There's gonna be some things I miss
But don't forget God promises we'll be together on the other side
Sometimes when there's no answer
Or no reason for the pain
And I just can't wrap my head around the wire of things that come my way
I still believe you hold a place for us in heaven
So even when my faith on earth is shaken
You're my safe haven
Ooh, ooh, oh
It's comfort for my heart that breaks
To know you're in a better place
And that I'll see your loving face again
I still believe you hold a place for us in heaven
So even when my faith on earth is shaken
You're my safe haven
You're my safe haven
My papa was a big 'ol man
He held the world and me in the palm of his hand

The Faithful Love Of Jesus
There are arms that we can lean into
That always will receive us
And endless love of living truth
The faithful love of Jesus
I pray you know the love I've got
The love that never leaves us
The height, the depth
The wind, the breath
The faithful love of Jesus
Beneath our broken hearts and wounds
Where no one else can reach us
It finds a way to heal us through
The faithful love of Jesus
I pray you know the love I've got
The love that never leaves us
The height, the depth
The wind, the breath
The faithful love of Jesus
The light that moves
The hand that heals
The voice that speaks
The hope that's real
The light that moves
(The light that moves)
The hand that heals
(The hand that heals)
The voice that speaks
(The voice that speaks)
The hope that's real
(The hope that's real)
I pray you know the love I've got
The love that never leaves us
The height, the depth
The wind, the breath
The faithful love of Jesus
The faithful love of Jesus
The faithful love of Jesus
Love of Jesus
I hope you know
Faithful love of Jesus
I hope you know
(The light that moves)
The light that moves
(The hand that heals)
The hand that heals
(The voice that speaks)
Oh, He never
(The hope that's real)
The hope that's real
Hope you know

The River (Come On Down)
[Hillary Scott & the Scott Family:]
Are you tired of shame in secrets?
Wishing you can let them go
Do you feel you're often searching for a home?
Well there's a love that fills what's empty
There's a place you can be changed
There's a God who knows you
He's calling out your name
Come on down to the river
Come be washed in the blood
And your sins will be forgiven by the power of His love
Come be changed by the mercy
That makes all things new
Where the lost get found
Come on down, down, down to the river
To the river
[Sharon White & Cheryl White:]
It flows like the Mississippi
From the giver of endless grace
And everyone is welcome here to dive into the waves
So leave the questions far behind you
Leave your past back on the shore
And run with wild abandoned
Wait no more
[All:]
Come on down to the river
Come be washed in the blood
And your sins will be forgiven by the power of His love
Come be changed by the mercy
That makes all things new
Where the lost get found
Come on down, down, down to the river
To the river
[Hillary Scott & the Scott Family:]
Every burden, every scar
Let the waters wash away
No matter who you were before
You belong to Christ today
Yeah, you belong to Christ today
As I went down to the river to pray
Studying about that good 'ol way
And who shall wear the robe and crown
Good Lord, show me the way
Oh Sister, let's go down, let's go down, come on down
Oh Sister, let's go down, down to the river to pray
[All:]
Come on down to the river
Come be washed in the blood
And your sins will be forgiven by the power of His love
Come be changed by the mercy
That makes all things new
Where the lost get found
Come on down, down, down to the river
To the river
Come on down, come on down
To the river

Thy Will
I'm so confused
I know I heard You loud and clear
So, I followed through
Somehow I ended up here
I don't wanna think
I may never understand
That my broken heart is a part of Your plan
When I try to pray
All I've got is hurt and these four words
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
I know You're good
But this don't feel good right now
And I know You think
Of things I could never think about
It's hard to count it all joy
Distracted by the noise
Just trying to make sense
Of all Your promises
Sometimes I gotta stop
Remember that You're God
And I am not
So
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Like a child on my knees all that comes to me is
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will
I know You see me
I know You hear me, Lord
Your plans are for me
Goodness You have in store
I know You hear me
I know You see me, Lord
Your plans are for me
Goodness You have in store
So
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Like a child on my knees all that comes to me is
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
I know You see me
I know You hear me, Lord

Love Remains
We are born
One fine day
Children of God
On our Way
Momma smiles
Daddy cries
A miracle
Before their eyes
They protect us
Till we're of age
Through it all
Love remains
A boy moves on
Takes a bride
And she stands faithful
By his side
Through tears and sweat
They build a home
And raise a family
Of their own
They share joy
They share pain
But through it all
Love remains
Kingdoms come and go
But they don't last
Before you know the future is the past
In spite of what's been lost
Or what's been gained
We are living proof
That love remains
I don't know
Baby what I'd do
On this earth
Without you
We all live
And we all die
But the end
Is not goodbye
The sun comes up
And the seasons change
And through it all
Love remains
An eternal
Burning flame
Hope lives on
And love remains

We March On
Sometimes the valley's deep
Sometimes the mountain's high
Sometimes we get to rest
Sometimes we have to fight
But we march on
Sometimes we're in the sun
Sometimes we're in the dark
Sometimes life is easy
Sometimes it gets so hard
But we march on
I'm walking on the upward wing with a heart of faith climbing higher and higher
Holding on to the hand that leads
It's filling me with a hope and a fire
Have you ever felt so broken?
Have you ever felt alone?
Have you ever felt forsaken?
Do you ever yearn for home?
Just march on, oh oh
I'm walking on the upward wing with a heart of faith climbing higher and higher
Holding on to the hand that leads
It's filling me with a hope and a fire, yeah
When the road is winding
You can't see four tears
Even through the questions
Even in the fear
I'm walking on the upward wing with a heart of faith climbing higher and higher
Holding on to the hand that leads
It's filling me with a hope and a fire
I'm walking on the upward wing with a heart of faith climbing higher and higher
Holding on to the hand that leads
It's filling me with a hope and a fire, yeah
We march on
(I'm walking on the upward wing) Ooh
We march on

Your Unfailing Love
When I wake from my sleep
I know your angels have been watching over me
And I give thanks to You above for Your unfailing love
And when I'm down, in my soul
In this whole world, out of control
The only thing that lifts me up is Your unfailing love
When the storms of life run my ship aground
And all my dreams go down
Then there You are to lift me up with Your unfailing love
When the storms of life run my ship aground
And all my dreams go down
Then there You are to lift me up with Your unfailing love
And I give thanks to You above for Your unfailing love

Come Thou Fount
Come thou fount of every blessing
Tune my heart to sing thy grace
Streams of mercy never ceasing
Call for songs of loudest praise
Teach me some melodious sonnet
Sung by flaming tongues above
Praise the mount I'm fixed upon it
Mount of God's redeeming love
Here I raise my Ebenezer
Hither by thy help I've come
And I hope by thy good pleasure
Safely to arrive at home
Jesus sought me when a stranger
Wandering from the fold of God
He to rescue me from danger
Interposed His precious blood
His precious blood
Oh to grace how great a debtor
Daily I'm constrained to be
Let thy goodness like a fetter
Bind my wandering heart to thee
Prone to wander, Lord I feel it
Prone to leave the God I love
Here's my heart O take and seal it
Seal it for thy courts above
Above
Here's my heart O take and seal it
Seal it for thy courts above

Aint No Grave
Well, there ain't no grave that'll hold my body down
There ain't no grave that'll hold my body down
When I hear that trumpet sound
Gotta get up out of the ground
There ain't no grave that'll hold my body down
Oh my Lord it's a winding road
It's so dead from a heavy load
Feel the weight beneath the ground
Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
Oh my Lord I can barely see
Waiting for You and Your reckoning
Angels humming, can you hear the sound?
Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
I will rise, I will rise
I will rise, I will rise
Troubles come for everyone
Death has no respect for love
Throw that stone I won't be found
Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
Lord I'm crooked from head to toe
Got dirty hands and a dirty soul
I was lost, but now I'm found
Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
I will rise, I will rise
I will rise, I will rise
Troubles come for everyone
Death has no respect for love
Throw that stone I won't be found
Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
(Oh oh oh oh)
Angels humming, can you hear the sound?
Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
I will rise, I will rise
I will rise, I will rise
Troubles come for everyone
Death has no respect for love
Throw that stone I won't be found
Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
(Oh oh oh oh)
Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
