Wind


t h e | w i n d


the wind whips through my hair

as i still stand staring there

staring through my sightless mind's blind eye

i've just been showed my life

and it cuts through my like a knife

to see the painful mess that i've made

the voice of god on high fills my mind

he says, 'you're done, now look behind... and i'll show you

a picture of your life as it might've been

my spirit shines through you like a bright beacon

you lived in a cold dark world, yet you chose to waste your time - you were so blind

the wind begins to wane

as my dream begins to fade

to leave me cold and scared, but not alone

my mind has seen a dream

and my heart has heard an echo

of what the love of god can do through me

now when my faith fails or fades

he recalls to me that day

i saw my tears roll down the rearview mirror

the voice of god on high fills my mind

he cries, 'live for real, there's still time... and i'll help you

to live as if each day were the very last

to grab ahold of love, and to hold it fast

the world is dark and cold, but in you - there is love
