children of light

It's been 2 seasons since I've followed
and there's no reason for this sorrow
The drops outside seem so persistent.
When will these clouds subside and leave some room for air

And where's the light I found six months ago?
It's been obscured from all these gray skies in my mind.
been trying so hard to set my mind on things above
been trying so hard to learn to love

and sometimes I just gotta scream
cus the walls keep closing in and I'm stuck in between
but I feel I'm on the edge of the shadow

I'm stepping out in faith
into the light
You're breaking all these chains
binding my heart
And I'm starting to feel free again
as I begin to breathe You in
I'm stepping out in faith
into Your glorious light.

My life is fading with the hourglass
and it keeps changing as the years pass
People enter in and exit
and the draft from the open door gives me chills tonight

So come and fill me with Your warm embrace
Break down my walls so I can see the sun one last time
Still trying so hard to set my mind on things above
The world behind me and it's You I love

And I confess
that I'm a mess

And I confess (that you are the answer)
that I'm a mess (this pride is my cancer)
And I confess (And now I'm trying so hard to)
that I'm a mess (lay my burdens before You)

I'm chasing the sun and seeking light
