Close Your Eyes Lyrics

Promise once it shut you out
You ask, "What was that all about now?"
You and I, through rise and fall
We've seen the horizon through it all now

Close your eyes this time
'Cause trust is all we have tonight
But trust will be forever
Safe your dreams will be
'Cause trust will be the light tonight
So close your eyes this time
The trust will be your light tonight
So close your eyes this time

The house sits stale, it lets you roam
Inside it just don't feel like home now
I promise hope will pull you out
For that's what love is all about

And time will turn this place around
For a man you call Jesus was still a son like you
Sons will spend their days searching hard
For the things they are made of
They are made of

So close your eyes this time
And trust will be the light tonight
So close your eyes this time
And trust will be the light tonight
So close your eyes

If You Find Her

Slow Your Breath Down

Set Your Sails

Speak to Me Gently

Someday

Promise once it shut you out
You ask, "What was that all about now?"
You and I, through rise and fall
We've seen the horizon through it all now

The house sits stale, it lets you roam
Inside it just don't feel like home now
I promise hope will pull you out
For that's what love is all about

And time will turn this place around
For a man you call Jesus was still a son like you
Sons will spend their days searching hard
For the things they are made of
They are made of

So close your eyes this time
And trust will be the light tonight
So close your eyes this time
And trust will be the light tonight
So close your eyes

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This one is about trusting in God whatever we're going through, whether something bad happens and leaves us dazed (what was that all about now?), or we're in a bad situation (inside it just don't feel like home now), or we aren't sure who we are (sons will spend thier days searching hard for the things they are made of). Sometimes following Christ can feel like walking around in the dark, we cannot see the exact way to the promises God told to us so it's easy to feel abandoned. But if we close our eyes and listen to His voice, he will lead us if we trust Him.
