[Verse 1] The sun shines and leaves blow And my hope like autumn is turning brown And I know it seems like I'm always falling down [Chorus] But it does not matter to me Although it seems like it should It's because I know I'm understood When I hear Him say: Rest in Me, little David and dry all your tears You can lay down your armor and have no fear
'Cause I'm always here when you're tired of running And I'm all the strength that you need [Verse 2] It's uphill both ways Tomorrow I swear, I won't act this way And I know it seems like that is what I always say [Chorus] [Outro] You know I want to be like Jesus But it seems so very far away When will I learn to obey, obey
