Light of the world

Please don't give up on me

I'm so lost right now

Reach through the dark

I feel like I've been missing

God of the stars

Can you silence the storm deep

In me right now

Relight my fire

That warm embrace has ended

You I can't keep up with you

Help me know what's true

Lies have become believable

I don't know what else I can say

So maybe it's better this way

If I just listen

Oh son of man from the clouds

If I speak can you hear right now

I knew your name before sin left you broken

I hold the keys

So tell me why's your heart full of fear

Right now

I knew you would fall

So grace keeps my arms wide open for

You I can't give up on you

Your tendencies I knew

Which makes each nail more beautiful

Don't get in your own way

There's life in each word that I say

If you just listen

Why is it so hard to believe

But there is one sure guarantee

If you just

Listen you speak but don't listen

That's why you keep missing

The beautiful things heaven has for you

Just know then

When you have come to your end

That's when new life begins

Yes it feels like it's forever

But it's sweeter on the other side of you

La la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la

La la la la

La la la la la la la la

Don't get in your own way

There's life in each word that I say

If we just

As time pierces through my procrastination

How much further I'd be

If I just considered my past affliction

Only to confess I am my own prisoner

Found guilty of the crime

That I constantly did not listen

Tomorrow's more clearer

If we would just listen

His touch feels more nearer

If we could just listen

And now I know

I wouldn't fail as much

If I would just listen

Patterns of circles

And circles for my life are over

If I listen

Tomorrow's more clearer

If we would just listen

The truth is

His touch feels more nearer

If we could just listen

Please

And now I know

I wouldn't fail as much

If I would just listen

Please

Patterns of circles

And circles for my life are over

If I listen
