Shadows

We’re born into the longing

With hearts, bent toward possessing

All that our eyes are seeing

Our souls, they never stop wanting

Beauty never intended to be more than a reflection

Oh, Lord, light up my dark eyes

Teach me to let go

I’ve been runnin’

Chasing nothing but shadows

My heart is an ocean raging

And Your grace is all that keeps me from drowning

My mind creates deceptions

So I cling the treasure sinking

Oh, Lord, light up my dark eyes

Teach me to let go

I’ve been runnin’

Chasing nothing but shadows

Oh, Lord, please come and

Raise my dead heart, let me know

You can keep me from

Chasing after the shadows

Shadows

All that I run to, all that I cling to

Everything seems to only slip through my hands

All that I run to, all that I cling to

Everything seems to only slip through my hands

But I keep running, I keep chasing

Left holding on to only the after glow

Lord, light up my eyes, let me follow You

To the source behind all the shadows

I keep running, I keep chasing

Left holding on to only the after glow

Lord, light up my eyes, let me follow You

To the source behind all the shadows

Oh, Lord, light up my dark eyes

Teach me to let go

I’ve been runnin’

Chasing nothing but shadows

Oh, Lord, please come and

Raise my dead heart, let me know

You can keep me from

Chasing after the shadows

The shadows

Keep runnin’, keep runnin’, keep runnin’
