lyrics
Travis:
I feel like I've lost my mind.
I don't want to talk right now,
But I will make the time,
‘Cause I want to hear you out.
Teach me to
Find your light,
Come to you,
And ALIGN.
Heavenly Father, am I doing this right?
Heavenly Father, am I sharing your light?
Am I doing all you knew that I could?
Loving enough, making good?
Are we close? Are we far?
Will I come home? Where do I belong?
Matt:
Where do I belong?
My obscure thoughts digress.
I forget to let you know.
How do I let go of my stress,
And into your just arms go?
Both:
Teach me to
Find your light,
Come to you,
And ALIGN.
Heavenly Father, am I doing this right?
Heavenly Father, am I sharing your light?
Am I doing all you knew that I could?
Loving enough, making good?
Are we close? Are we far?
Will I come home?
ALIGN my heart to yours,
Turn my eyes forwards,
Tune my ears to thee,
Use my hands liberally,
Refocus my mind,
Help me to ALIGN,
To you,
In all I do.
Heavenly Father, help me do what’s right.
Heavenly Father, help me share your light.
Guide me to do all you know I can.
Show me to love, to start again.
Let us be close, even when far,
Guide me back home,
Where I belong.
