Music At Work - Steady In Your Care (New Song Lyrics)

Music At Work offers an exclusive, ongoing sneak-peek into new songs on the horizon. All song titles and lyrics are subject to change, evolve, or disappear entirely over time, but I want to share some of the beginning stages of the creative process with you in real-time. 

Here are lyrics from a new song in development with the working title “Steady In Your Care.” It’s a very Gregory Douglass-certified piano ballad that might even make Patty Griffin proud ;) 
 

Steady In Your Care 
by Gregory Douglass 

I wish I had a pair of your wings 
So I could get out of my own damn way 
And feel the momentum of this 
But I am only one man 

If love should heal it all 
And all of this hurt should reconcile 
I’ll know it was because you were there 
If hope should reappear 
And this weary dream should prove worthwhile 
I’ll know it was because you were there 
And I’m always steady in your care 

So long hard climb 
You’re just a memory in a photo frame 
Set out beside me and my burning bedside 
And you cast the water to the flames 
You call my name 
And I am never the same 

If love should heal it all 
And all of this hurt should reconcile 
I’ll know it was because you were there 
If hope should reappear 
And this weary dream should prove worthwhile 
I’ll know it was because you were there 
And I’m always steady in your care 

When I’m full of jealousy 
When there's something wrong with me 
I know you’ll be there 
Any way you can 
Any way you can  

If love should heal it all 
And all of this hurt should reconcile 
I’ll know it was because you were there 
If hope should reappear 
And this weary dream should prove worthwhile 
I’ll know it was because you were there 
And I’m always steady in your care
