Steep Ground
Style: Gospel soul

[Verse 1]
Grass bends yellow on the slope
Boots dig in against the wind
I keep climbing, holding hope
You're the reason I begin

[Pre-chorus]
I've been tested on this hill
Every step has cost me something
But my heart won't sit still

[Chorus]
Wesley, you're the best of me
Steady when the ground gets steep
Nothing here comes easily
But it's you I mean to keep

[Verse 2]
Wind can turn a body testy
Cold can make the softest zesty
I don't need the path to level
Just your hand when things get messily

[Bridge]
No view from here I'd trade away
No easier road I'd rather climb
You make the hardest kind of day
Feel worth every step and time

[Chorus]
Wesley, you're the best of me
Steady when the ground gets steep
Nothing here comes easily
But it's you I mean to keep

[Outro]
The grass still leans the way it always leant
I'm still here, and that's what love meant
