Rest

Lyrics

I would be blessed if you would rest here tonight.
One easy evening without leaving by the light.
I’d like to cave in to the cravings that I hide.
I would be blessed if you would rest here tonight.

I would be saved if you would make your heart a home.
I would make ready all the bedding that I own.
I’d sit real still on a window sill inside your soul.
I would be saved if you would make your heart a home.

The winter’s always bitter. Don’t confuse that with yourself.
Please discern between what’s burning you and what you fear you felt.
If it all goes fine, don’t let him find a way to say it won’t.
And if it all just goes to pieces, Jesus, please just let him know. I

would be healed if you revealed just what you need.
I would make haste to any place at any speed.
I’d like to learn why you’re so concerned with being free.
I would be healed if you revealed just what you need.

I would be honored if you pondered being mine
For a little or a lot of all I’ve got of my spare time.
I’d be no less than flustered if you could muster up that line.
I would be honored if you pondered being mine.

There’s no good course of action for the things we want the most.
Very pricey, very dicey, are two people getting close.
If it all goes well, don’t let him sell us short before we try.
And if it all just goes to pieces, Jesus, please just let them fly.

I would be hurt if you should turn me down, my dear.
I’d think myself cursed if you just burst right out of here.
I’d say I’m fine, but in my mind, I’d shed a tear.
I would be hurt if you should turn me down.

But I would be blessed if you would rest here tonight.
Or we could make it a habit, and we could have it all the time.
When our days are through we harken to the things we stayed beside.
I would be blessed if you would rest here tonight.
I would be blessed if you would rest here tonight.
If you would rest here tonight.
