The Remedy - A Song

Ayiesha Woods has some really powerful and personal lyrics. I love her music.

Tonight this song really spoke to me. I guess I can really relate to it right now, so I thought I would share. Music is an integral part of my life. It helps keep me focused, helps to calm me, helps to cause tears, helps me to release my feelings, helps me to heal, and helps me to hurt. Listening to just the right song at the right time can make the biggest difference.

The Remedy Lyrics: A little too much time on your hands So many things pressing your heart Now you're caught up in a brain storm And the winds are tearing you apart And what matters the most now Shouldn't matter at all You forgot who's holding you up And He won't let you fall Who's in control of your life And knows better than you ever will Who tells you time and again Hush and be still It's time to recognize That your answer lies in His eyes Where the river flows If you'll just Free your mind And the peace of God will follow Just give yourself a little time Don't worry 'bout tomorrow Don't you know that His joy is your strength Can you fathom it Peace beyond your understanding When you gonna grab a hold of it Cause you're life's not your own You can't do it alone There is a remedy if you will let go and just... Free your mind And the peace of God will follow Just give yourself a little time Don't worry 'bout tomorrow Don't you know just thinking about it, Ain't gonna add one hour Tell me who's in control Behind the Song: "Believe it or not, this song was written during a time when I was caught up emotionally with a young man and I was only about 19 years old! At that time I was consumed with the idea of a possible future together. Then God gave me Matthew 6:25-34 which talks about not being concerned with things that I cannot control - such as tomorrow! And taking no thought for my life because thinking of it won't add even an hour! I needed to free my mind! That song was/is a song of liberty! Thanks be to God - He knew all along that that young man was not for me those many years before!" - Ayiesha Woods
