The sun shines 

And leaves blow 

And my hope like autumn is turning brown 

I know it seems like I'm always falling down 

(Chorus)



Chorus:

But it does not matter to me 

Although it seems like it should 

It's because I know I'm understood when I hear Him say 

Rest in me little David 

And dry all your tears 

You can lay down your armor 

And have no fear 

Cause I'm always here 

When you're tired of running 

And I'm all the strength that you need 



It's uphill both ways 

Tomorrow I swear I won't act this way 

And I know it seems like that is what I always say 

(Chorus)



Outro:

You know I want to be like Jesus 

But it seems so very far away 

When will I learn to obey

Obey
