Five Smooth Stones — Selah Sound Collective ()

Verse 1 Valley air, thick with dread Whispers creep inside my head Shadow stretched, a mountain tall Making giants of us all They count the spears, the glint of steel Don't know the quiet strength I feel Just a shepherd, out of place Doubt etched on every face

Pre-Chorus But the brook sings a different tune Underneath this pale, cold moon Washing over fear's design A steady heart, a faith that's mine

Chorus This would make the best chorus) Five smooth stones, in the hollow of my hand Not by might, but where I stand Hear the silence, hold your breath Facing down the face of death Five smooth stones, a whisper and a prayer Cutting through the thickened air

Verse 2 Armor heavy, not my own This battle's fought with what I've known The open sky, the flock I lead Planting an unlikely seed They see a boy, too small to fight Don't see the fire, burning bright This giant roars, a thunderous sound But my feet are firm on hallowed ground

Pre-Chorus And the wind carries something new A quiet strength, about to break through Washing over doubt's dark stain A steady hand, a loosed refrain

Chorus Five smooth stones, in the hollow of my hand Not by might, but where I stand Hear the silence, hold your breath Facing down the face of death Five smooth stones, a whisper and a prayer Cutting through the thickened air

Bridge One small sling, a single aim More than muscle, more than name It's the beat inside, the will to rise Reflected in these hopeful eyes The world may laugh, the odds may scream But I'm living out a bigger dream

Chorus Five smooth stones, in the hollow of my hand Not by might, but where I stand Hear the silence, hold your breath Facing down the face of death Five smooth stones, a whisper and a prayer Cutting through the thickened air

Outro Stone flies true... Silence falls... Echoes in the valley walls... Giant fall... Giant fall... Just a whisper... after all.
