Lyrics

I really haven't written anything about music since the day I started this blog, so I thought I'd do something about it. One of the blogs I regularly visit - Vitamin Z - posted a list of some songs whose lyrics have impacted him. This is the first in what I hope to be a regular feature - perhaps once a week - including lyrics of songs that have impacted me.

The following lyrics are from a Steven Curtis Chapman song titled "I Am Found In You."

The sun sinks low, and here I go
Wrestling with questions that refuse an answer
This path of faith can be a place
So barren of what I understand
I can hear the voice of fear
Saying, “Let me show you another way”
So I cry out, “My Lord Jesus!
It’s in Your love for me I find all that I need”

Chorus:
So where else could I turn
And where else could I go
You have given me life
You have made me whole
You have rescued my soul
So where else could I go
For I am found in You

I may not see in front of me
But I can see for miles when I look over my shoulder
And Lord it’s clear, You’ve brought me here
So faithful every step of the way
What can I do, but follow You
For You are the Way, the Truth, the Life
And You’ve promised never to leave me
My Savior, my Friend, from beginning to end

Bridge:
Lord, without You this child would be so lost
But I’ve been found in You, now I am bound to You
By the love that You’ve shown, it will not let me go

You can listen to a clip of the song through Windows Media Player, Real Player, or iTunes.
