[Verse 1]
She carries grace like something handed down from higher ground
Finds the beauty in the broken, hears the truth without a sound
She weighs every word before she speaks, but when she does it lands
Like a compass pointing somewhere only she understands
They see the calm, they don't see the tide
All those fathoms running deep inside

[PreChorus]
She's been the steady one so long she's learned to need it less
But needing rest ain't giving up, it's earning back your breath

[Chorus]
Hold on, Christine, you are more than what you carry
More than every careful choice and every cross you've married
The moon was full the night they wrote your name among the stars
Hold on, Christine, you've always been enough just as you are

[Verse 2]
She loves like quiet labor, like a garden given time
Notices the small things, reads the feeling between the lines
She's built her walls with trembling hands and mortared them with pride
Not from coldness, but from learning what it costs to let things die
Every scar became a story, every storm a kind of proof
That the deepest kind of strength is what you build beneath the roof

[PreChorus]
She's looking for her worth in what she gives and what gets done
But her worth was never earned, child — it was there before she'd won

[Chorus]
Hold on, Christine, you are more than what you carry
More than every careful choice and every cross you've married
The moon was full the night they wrote your name among the stars
Hold on, Christine, you've always been enough just as you are

[Verse 3]
There's a dreamer underneath the one who keeps the world in line
A searching soul who wanders far in the quiet of her mind
She questions what is broken, reimagines what is fair
Sees the world not as it is but as it could be if she dared
The cosmos wrote her carefully, with ink that doesn't fade
Every contradiction in her is the very way she's made

[PreChorus]
She don't need to be the answer or the remedy for all
She just needs to trust the roots that hold her steady when she falls

[Chorus]
Hold on, Christine, you are more than what you carry
More than every careful choice and every cross you've married
The moon was full the night they wrote your name among the stars
Hold on, Christine, you've always been enough just as you are

[Bridge]
You don't have to prove your presence to deserve your place here
Every tide you've weathered only made the water clear
You were built for depth, not distance, built for love that lasts
Let the girl who fought so hard to bloom finally rest at last

[Outro]
The universe has always known your name
And everything you are is worth the claim
Rest now, darling, you have always been the light
You were written in the stars and they got it right
