A Breath or Two
by Jimmy Needham


Make me rest my head and take a breath or two
Life is busy—work, school, practice, games, spending time with family and friends. By the end of the day you collapse into bed completely exhausted, wondering where the time went. You awake the next day with another to do list and start all over again.

But we need to rest. There is a reason that one of Gods Ten Commandments was to observe the Sabbath. God knew that without a command to rest, we never would. God knows that we need time to sit quietly and relax. So take some time this week, even if it is only an hour, and rest. You might even find that by taking that time, you will get more done.

Hebrews 4:10
For all who have entered into Gods rest have rested from their labors, just as God did after creating the world.



I think its terminal this terminal I'm waiting in
Could use a change of scene it seems I've been repeating it
Another day another plane another same thing
Yesterday became tomorrow that's the strange thing
Another string another strum another rhyme another hum

I want to breathe in
I want to breathe in and out again

I'm tired of putting one foot in front of the other
I'm weary of where it leads me too
I'm tired of moving on from my father
Make me rest my head and take a breath or two

Simply stated simple minded love for you
Has simply been completely complicated
And I'm finding
This daily drudgery is finally catching up to me
Its time for this abandon to make much of you
And less of me

I want to breathe in
I want to breathe in and out again

I'm tired of putting one foot in front of the other
I'm weary of where it leads me too
I'm tired of moving on from my father
Make me rest my head and take a breath or two

O for a slower pace
Moving at the speed of sound sounds like a race to me
O to be at ease
Moving at the speed of sound gets hard on the knees

I'm tired of putting one foot in front of the other
I'm weary of where it leads me too

I'm tired of putting one foot in front of the other
I'm weary of where it leads me too
I'm tired of moving on from my father
Make me rest my head and take a breath or two

I believe that if you're a Christian, then you're not familiar with the word "Religious" or "Religion." Like to be honest, religion has nothing to do with it, it's just about being in an awesome relationship with the God who made you and loves you so much that He gave his one and only Son to die for us and set us free from sin. :)

Even when he is speaking his words flow so articulately that you just have to listen. Who raised this kid? Way to go Mom and Dad on nurturing his gifts.

Thanks for the video, Danthepilotman!

[rozepoloshirtje]

It was along time ago I'd listened this song... I was feeling down again. And I was so tired of everything in my life. And I sayed, God give me a song that fits with what I feel, so that I can explain my feelings now.. cause I can't go on like this. And there was Jimmy with a breathe ore two... thank You Lord, that You let me take a brake, a breathe or two... You won't let me do things I can't handle. I love you! -I'm gonna rest and cry in the chest of Abba now...-
