My Portion
R&B Christian with a slow laid-back swing, warm electric keys, finger snaps, sub bass, and gentle kick on the backbeat; verse stays intimate with sparse Rhodes and close-mic lead, pre-chorus lifts with stacked harmonies and filtered pads, chorus opens into lush choir doubles and a soulful topline; bridge strips to keys and breathy ad-libs before the final lift. Satin-smooth vocals, tasteful delay throws on key words, soft vocal runs, airy backing responses, polished and intimate mix, r&b

Lyrics
Verse 1
I saw the wicked gliding
They never seem to break
Their table's always heavy
Mine feels like it can shake
My heart got tired of asking
Why they look so blessed
But I kept my hands in silence
And pain inside my chest
Pre-Chorus
Till I walked into Your presence
And my eyes were opened wide
What looked like winning in the distance
Was a shadow dressed in pride
Chorus
You are my portion
You are my portion
I won't trade Your presence
For a moment of applause
You are my portion
You are my portion
When my heart goes drifting
You are the hand I hold
Verse 2
My feet were almost slipping
I almost let it go
But Your mercy held me steady
When my mind said, "No"
Then You showed me their end
And the truth came rushing in
All that glitter on the surface
Could not save a soul from sin
Pre-Chorus
Now I see the story clearer
You were near the whole time
When the world looked loud and shiny
You were building peace inside
Chorus
You are my portion
You are my portion
I won't trade Your presence
For a moment of applause
You are my portion
You are my portion
When my heart goes drifting
You are the hand I hold
Bridge
Whom have I in heaven?
Whom do I need below?
My flesh may fail around me
But You won't let me go
You hold my right hand
You guide me through the dark
And after all the wandering
You're still the treasure of my heart
Chorus
You are my portion
You are my portion
I won't trade Your presence
For a moment of applause
You are my portion
You are my portion
Forever near me
You are the hand I hold
