Description
It's a song about my faith, it's a prayer in troubled times. A song about finding your way in life, among people who claim more than they live out. PS. Bear with the long intro! I intended to re-mix a radio version with a short intro, but the hard drive got fried. Oh the digital age we live in! :)
Lyrics
(Verse 1) The hardest thing of all, is clinging to your call when I cannot see a thing. And I need for you to show, so in weakness I can know, that this is where you have me. But they say I'm not the first, that this path has been well versed, trodden and well mapped, there's nothing new. Oh but I don't see their tracks, and no I don't see the path that they claim to walk, so all is new. (Chorus 1) So would you be in me your bright and shining light. And reveal to me all I cannot see tonight. (Verse 2) It's when I stop that you begin, it's when I break that you come in, and live your love through me. So help me to decrease of me, so you'll release so gracefully, your power in this life. But you call me to a place that takes much more than my own strength could ever give, or ever hope to get. And I'm a weak and mortal creature, who can't even go deeper without your hands taking over mine. (Chorus 2) So would you be in me all I cannot be myself. And would you be in me so much more than just my help. And Lord please be in me when I cannot see the light. And would you be in me and bring me back to life. (Bridge {End of verse 1}) (Chorus 2)
