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’
