[Verse 1]
Take a breath, don’t forget all the words that He said
You were made for this now
I hear His voice, through the noise
Knowing that I’ve got a choice
Looking out at the crowd

[Pre-Chorus]
Everyone’s got words for my reasons
I can hide or I can keep singing

[Chorus]

I know my body’s a vessel
I know my voice has the power to change
You tell me I’m too much to handle
You can’t make, you can’t tell me to
Where is the girl who was running (Ahh)
Singing and laughing through all of the rain (Ah)
You wanna turn me into something (Ahh)
You can’t make, you can’t tell me to (Ah)
Stand still
Stand still, oh
Stand still, oh
Ohh, oh, woah

[Verse 2]
He’s bringing back the years, He’s restoring me
He draws me out of fear, says He’s holding me
I’m learning who I am with Him right next to me
Yeah, He’s a friend to me
Out of the shadows, into the light
You can throw all your stones but they’ll miss every time
‘Cause I’m walking in purpose
Won’t be discouraged
I’m held as His beautiful child

[Chorus]

I know my body’s a vessel (Ahh)
I know my voice has the power to change (Ah)
You tell me I’m too much to handle (Ahh)
You can’t make, you can’t tell me to (Ah)
Where is the girl who was running (Ahh)
Singing and laughing through all of the rain (Ah)
You wanna turn me into something (Ahh)
You can’t make, you can’t tell me to (Ah)
Stand still
Stand still, no-no
Stand still, oh
Ohh, oh, woah

[Bridge]
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh (Stand still, oh)
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Stand still

[Chorus]
I know my body’s a vessel
I know my voice has the power to change
You tell me I’m too much to handle
You can’t make, you can’t tell me to
I am the girl who was running
I’m singing and laughing through all of the rain
You wanna turn me into something
You can’t make, you can’t tell me to
