"Some have the gift of faith, some the gift of doubt.”

LYRICS

CHORUS:
Just as you are and who you are and all you are - Be true. 	          You be you.

VERSE:
Be yourself, everybody else is taken. Even if it feels like fakin’ - you’ll get through.
Run your own race, don’t look over your shoulder. Someone always looks faster and bolder  -
 It’s not true. You be you.

CHORUS:
Just as you are and who you are and all you are - Be true. 	          You be you.

BRIDGE:
You were made in the image of God.
Don’t mean you won’t feel like a fraud.
That’s just part of the deal.
We all know how you feel!

VERSE:

Blessed are those who believe who haven’t seen. 
Some have the gift of faith, some the gift of doubt. 
And if that’s you…                 let it out.
 		
Chorus:
Just as you are and who you are and all you are - Be true. 	          You be you.

Just as you are

Stefan Lanfer writes indie folk singer-songwriter songs with the soul of a storyteller and the heart of a seeker. With a vibe somewhere between Ben Folds and Cat Stevens, his music blends lyrical introspection, spiritual resonance, and quiet power. This song library is for fans who want to feel something and collaborators looking for material ripe with possibilities and ready for their magic. 

SoundCloud is Stefan's songwriting sandbox, with work tapes and rehearsal tapes, multiple versions, works in progress, different drafts tracing the evolutions, and ideas from listeners always welcome to help these songs figure out and become what they want to be before they launch into the wider streaming world.
