Nichole Nordeman Brave
Ooohhh.
The gate is wide,
The road is paved
In moderation.
The crowd is kind,
And quick to pull
You in.
Welcome to the middle ground,
It's safe and
Sound.
Until now,
It's where I've been.
'Cause it's been fear
That ties me down to everything.
But it's been love,
Your love,
That cuts the strings.
So long, status quo.
I think I've just let go.
You make me wanna be brave.
The way it always was
Is no longer good enough.
You make me wanna be brave.
Brave.
Brave.
I am small,
And I speak
When I'm spoken to.
But I am willing to risk it all.
Say Your name,
Just Your name,
And I'm ready to jump,
Even ready to fall.
Why did I
Take this foul compromise?
Why did I
Try to keep it
All inside?
So long, status quo.
I think I've just let go.
You make me wanna be brave.
The way it always was
Is no longer good enough.
You make me wanna be brave.
Brave.
Brave.
I've never known a fire that didn't begin
With a flame.
Every storm will start with
Just a drop of rain.
But if you believe in Me,
That changes everything.
So long,
I'm gone.
So long, status quo.
I think I've just let go.
You make me wanna be brave.
I wanna be brave.
The way it always was
Is no longer good enough.
You make me wanna be brave.
Brave.
Brave.
Brave.
