High

Tonight I watched the sky

And saw the stars around me

Fiery constellations

It's oh so dear that

You're not silent

While the world spins on beneath me

Never do I take the time

Just watch the years go flying by

Busybodies never stopping

And just when I resign

I think that I will never see

Your face again

Is when you take me high

And let me see Your holy countenance

And free me from the sadness

Of yesterdays

You take me high

And let me find the face of innocence

I don't know how I don't know why

But You take me high

When I believe the lie

That You would never want me

I see myself through tainted eyes

And trapped inside the walls of my disguise

Looking for a new beginning

I find the heavy life oh so overbearing

I guess that's why You siad

That I should bear Your yoke upon me

And like so many times

You take me in Your arms again and then

You take me high

And let me see Your holy countenance

And free me from the sadness

Of yesterdays

You take me high

And let me find the face of innocence

I don't know how I don't know why

But You take me high

See the signs and take me high

Find a new beginning

Oh it's such a consolation

That judging from my suffering

It's only for a moment

You take me high

And let me find the face of innocence

I don't know how I don't know why

I don't know how I don't know why

I don't know how I don't know why

But You take You take You take me high
