Study to be Quiet

Enough for Me

Lyrics

[VERSE 1]
We talk about love, yeah, we know the words,
But talk gets loud and the truth gets blurred.
We’re chasing drama like it’s something sweet,
But peace is calling in the quiet streets.
The church should be a home where grace is found,
But whispers rise and they shake the ground
And every heart that’s trying to walk in light
Gets tangled up in another needless fight.

[PRE-CHORUS]
We were called to live a life that’s calm and kind,
But the noise keeps pulling at the restless mind.

[CHORUS]
So I’m learning just to study to be quiet,
To lay it down instead of amplifying riots.
I’m not here for glory, not here for the fight
I want peace, I want love, I want hearts made right.
Yeah, we’re called to something better
And it’s time we all try it…
Study to be quiet.

[VERSE 2]
Are you posting tales just to fan the flame,
Craving all the clicks and the rush of fame?
Do you hold the spotlight like a crown,
While brothers stumble and others drown?
‘Cause Christ said, “Blessed are the peacemakers,”
Not the gossipers or the trouble-chasers.
And unity is worth the sacrifice
A gentle word can make a colder heart think twice.

[PRE-CHORUS]
Pride wants noise, wants to be seen
It loves the chaos more than what peace means.

[CHORUS]
So I’m learning just to study to be quiet,
To lay it down instead of amplifying riots.
I’m not here for glory, not here for the fight
I want peace, I want love, I want hearts made right.
Yeah, we’re called to something better
And it’s time we all try it…
Study to be quiet.

[BRIDGE]
Oh, we should chase reconciliation,
Not build walls between God’s creation.
Truth with grace - not truth with spite
What’s the point of winning if we lose the light?

[CHORUS (Bigger)]
So I’m learning just to study to be quiet,
To let His love be the answer when I can’t deny it.
I won’t chase the spotlight, won’t stir up the storm
Peace is the path where His people belong.
Yeah, He calls us into better
And I’m done trying to fight it…
Study to be quiet.

[OUTRO (soft)]
Grace and peace… grace and peace…
Let it grow in us.
Study to be quiet.
