Story Behind The Song
No matter how aware we are of our own tendencies in life, we are all still human. Even the most devout follower steps in dirt. Moving aside and letting God take over our lives needs to be a daily occurrence. I hit my knees first thing every morning and pray that I can "Step Aside" and let God rule the day! Despite this daily prayer, I often find myself drifting only a few hours later (if that) and getting caught up in the business of the day. "Step Aside" is a commitment to let God take control because He has a much better plan. He knows our every need, so we should lay down our pride and just trust Him, even when it's painful.

Lyrics
I woke up today with You
On my mind, in my soul
But I found myself by noon
Overwhelmed, out of control
But just before I lost my mind
I closed my eyes and shut off the phone
And You showed up just in time
So I - I'll step aside
Take all my days
And all my nights
Your way is true
So I will step aside - for You
All the plans I make
They come and go
But the ways of You
Fill up my soul
Your path is true
And I know just what to do
I will lay down my pride
And Step aside
Sometimes I put our love on hold
I get caught up in the day
Sometimes this world it shines like gold
And it's hard to turn away
But through the noise I hear Your song
And Your music fills my soul
You lead me back where I belong
And when troubles come my way
I'll be holding tight to Your grace
You won't let me fall away
