The First Step 
By Charles V. Hayden

Verse 1

Sometimes I feel so small within these four white walls
I wanna break free but I don’t know how
To turn it all around and find a way
Let go of the mistakes I’ve made
I wanna feel like I’m enough
Break through the darkness and receive 
Your love

Pre chorus

The blank face in the mirror is asking me how
To pierce through the pain and figure this out

Chorus

If the first step is what it takes
 I’ll take the first step closer to change
I’ll dig down deeper when I don’t feel brave
Rise above my fear, gonna  find my way
And I’ll start today if the first step is what it takes

What it takes, what it takes what it  takes
What it takes, what it takes

Verse 2

Sometimes it feels like shadows are all I see
And I don’t notice my victories
Running in place, and getting nowhere
When all the time You were right there
All I had to do was just take Your hand
Cause when I get weary You help me to stand

Pre chorus

The blank face in the mirror is asking me how
To pierce through the pain and figure this out

Chorus

If the first step is what it takes
I’ll take the first step closer to change
I’ll dig down deeper when I don’t feel brave
Rise above my fear, find my way
And I’ll start today if the first step is what it takes
What it takes, what it takes

Bridge

Sometimes I stumble like a toddler
Learning to walk
So good to know that You’re right here
To catch me when I fall


Chorus

If the first step is what it takes
 I’ll take the first step closer to change
I’ll dig down deeper when I don’t feel brave
Rise above my fear I'm gonna find my way
And I’ll start today if the first step is what it takes
