I’m a little behind the times. I just found out (just found out!) that Phillip Phillips won American Idol Season 11. I had no idea. I stopped watching it when there were about 8 contestants left, and this guy I thought would not make it much further.

I was wrong.

I am glad I was wrong.

I cannot stop listening to this song.

Even Oliver dances to it.

It’s beautiful.

I feel like the Universe put that song in my life to give me comfort. I get the same message daily, and today it was from this song. Thank you Phil for winning AI. Thank you Greg Holden and Drew Pearson for writing this heart-filled song, a song which makes my heart sing, my soul leap, my brain happy, my body jump. I absolutely adore this song. When the Settle Down lyrics are sung, I feel a peace that surpasses …

Hold on, to me as we go
As we roll down this unfamiliar road
And although this wave is stringing us along
Just know you’re not alone
Cause I’m going to make this place your home

Settle down, it’ll all be clear
Don’t pay no mind to the demons
They fill you with fear
The trouble it might drag you down
If you get lost, you can always be found

Just know you’re not alone
Cause I’m going to make this place your home

Settle down, it’ll all be clear
Don’t pay no mind to the demons
They fill you with fear
The trouble it might drag you down
If you get lost, you can always be found

Just know you’re not alone
Cause I’m going to make this place your home

Performed by Phil Phillips
