So you think youre wise to the ways of the world
Watching the madness with a cynical eye
Speaking your judgement with a trembling chin
And quietly closing the shade
You cannot hold back all the years of your pain
Do you wish you could leap from this runaway train
Youve spoken His name called Him time and again
But your doubt always kept Him away
Minutes to hours and hours to days
I seems just as black as the night
Theres only so much of this life you can take
With no hope of a rescue in sight
You feel youve lost salvation
I wish you knew the truth
That Hes always waited right here by your side
Hes the Light at the end of the tunnel
Hes the Beacon that guides your way
You cant count on tomorrow to come
You need His love today!
His eyes have always been with you
Youve never left His sight
Return to your Shepard
Let Him lead you out of the night
Why do you spend your life running away
Have you given Him reason to doubt
Why do you hide from the Light of the world
when you know Hes the only way out
If you question the joy of surrender
You need look no further than me
Will you ever hear Him knocking on your door
Youre not the type to be easily led
Youve been around for so long so its said
And though you have judged by the fact you have seen
The conlcusion you draw is a lie
The world keeps on turning around and around
Day becomes night becomes day
Sooner or later your house will come down
and your passion will whither away
But for the clock keeps ticking away
And youve never a guarantee
Until you open up and let Him in
