Bbm9
Sitting at the table in a kitchen conversation
Gbmaj7
You spilled the words you read just yesterday
Bbm9
He said "Be perfect as I am"
"How can this be done," you ask, "when every time I try to be
Gbmaj7
Someone with such a mastery, I see how weak I am"
Cb2 Bbm2
I said, "See the sweet dichotomy
Cb2 Absus
Mercy mirrored on the face of impossibility"
Db6 Bbm7 Gb6 Db
The weight of the words can crush you, they can break you
Cb2 Bbm Gb Ab
Or they can heal and they can take you to the throne of grace
Db6 Bbm7 Gb6 D6
The weight of the words will lead you like a beacon
Cb2 Bbm Gb Bbm2
When your strength is finally beaten by the weight of the words
And so the constant struggle to remind each other of the fact
That the rest is easy on the shoulders of the One who came
To pay for what we lack
Now our welcome burden is to strive with humble gratitude
For we cannot take lightly what He carried on His back
Can you feel the gravity, compelling mystery
Life for those who will believe
Refrain:
Bbm2
The rest is easy, the rest is easy, the rest is easy
His rest is easy
Are you weary
REFRAIN
Can you hear the words that lift the burden
Do you feel the gravity, compelling mystery
Life for those who will believe
repeat CHORUS and fade
