A skeleton of a man
a shell of a person
but I'm not this person.
I find myself less than
I find myself human
but I can't find the rest of me.
The light is growing dim
motivation turned its course
headed for a different land.
- Chorus -
And so I sit
I sit waiting
waiting for you to save me
waiting for you to set me free.
Yes I sit
I sit waiting
waiting for you to save me
waiting for you to set me free (from me).
Nothingness won't help me
And you won't hurt me
but I want to run.
So here is my compromise
I'll stay here in the sand
will life come to this man?
Like the ongoing waves of the ocean
I grow tired of pressing on,
never to get but where I am.
(to Chorus)
yes I'll sit
I'll sit waiting
waiting for you to save me
waiting for you to set me free . . .
from me.

Trusting You

Can I be real here?
I don't think I can keep pressing on
I'm laying it all out there
but my best will just be short again
'cuz I don't have the strength to do this alone
I need You now my King
- Chorus -
Trusting You, trusting You, my God
Trusting You, trusting You, always.
I know that You are so near
Can I just hold You close?
You're with me so I won't fear
I know You are my help now
'cuz I don't have the strength to do this alone
I need You now my King
(to Chorus)
And I won't be afraid of what the future brings
I will look ahead and know
that the King of Glory is the One who leads me
(to Chorus)
Trusting You, always.

Struck by decline - I feel the slip, don't see the climb
Looking to the skies
You've eased my mind - about the dark so many times
but now I'm searching for a light
Are my eyes broken, to fix my heart?
-Chorus-
You never let me break - or fall into a mess you couldn't fix
it is effortless for you
Don't know how I'll pull through - but my burden to you is weightless
it is effortlessly moved
so I cling to you, my provider - my provider
If I am led - by waiting wishes, I'll regret
you waiting too
try to forget - what I don't have, and instead
sow what I do
You can do more with my little - than I could with much
(to chorus)
now my eyes are broken, to fix my heart
you can do more with my little - than I could with much
If you say you'll fill up - these empty jars
I fully trust you will
(to chorus)

Turn your eyes upon Jesus
Look full in His wonderful face
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim
in the light of His glory and grace
Turn your eyes upon Jesus
Look full in His wonderful face
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim
in the light of His glory and grace
His glory
His glory
He is glory
