Eternal Grace
A song made by Agbo Etim
(Verse 1)
You can tell me I’m the moonlight, the rhythm in your song
The only place you wanna be, where you know you belong
You can swear on the heavens, call me your perfect crush
Paint a picture of a fire that’s never gonna hush
You can say that my absence is a desert in your soul
That without me in the picture, you never can be whole
You can tell me that your spirit is a fountain running dry
And you’re lost in the static underneath a lonely sky.
(Pre-Chorus)
Yeah, the words flow like honey, sweet on your tongue
But I’m looking for the melody that’s deeper than the sung
Words are just the shadows, they flicker and they fade
I’m looking for the substance in the promise that you made.
(Chorus)
'Cause baby, it’s deeper than an expression
More than just a line or a lovers' confession
When a woman loves a man, it’s a soul-deep connection
A steady, quiet force, moving in every direction
It’s the anchor in the storm when the waves start to break
It’s the sacrifice you give, it’s the path that you take
Yeah, it’s deeper than a whisper, it’s a vow in the bone
When a woman loves a man, you are never alone.
(Verse 2)
It’s the silent understanding in the middle of the night
When you’re carrying a burden, I’m the one who holds the light
It’s not about the survival, or the cup that you fill
It’s the way I stand beside you, standing rock-solid and still
When the world starts to crumble and the pride starts to fall
I’m the one who builds the fortress, I’m the answer to the call
It’s a love that doesn't falter, doesn't need a heavy show
It’s the kind of rooted magic that only we can know.
(Bridge)
It’s the sweat on the brow, it’s the time that we spend
Not just the beginning, but the journey to the end
Not a movie on a screen, not a story that you tell
It’s a love that holds you up when you’re down in the well.
(Chorus)
'Cause baby, it’s deeper than an expression
More than just a line or a lovers' confession
When a woman loves a man, it’s a soul-deep connection
A steady, quiet force, moving in every direction
It’s the anchor in the storm when the waves start to break
It’s the sacrifice you give, it’s the path that you take
Yeah, it’s deeper than a whisper, it’s a vow in the bone
When a woman loves a man, you are never alone.
(Outro)
Yeah, it’s deeper than the words
Can you feel it in your heart?
Deeper than the promises
It’s the soul, baby
Just the soul.
