Lyrics:
I’m confessing my addiction to news-around-the-clock
I let my heart be led around by tragic tales of pain
There’s story after story—the suffering never stops
I need to take the longer view, and hear Your voice again
CHORUS:
Calm me down, pull me back
Help me slow my heartbeat, get that peaceful rhythm back
Help me see that centuries
Are not too long for Your promises, You’re not too slow for me
You’re not too slow for me
When she landed in the desert, the call was still so clear
