Pillar Album: For the Love of the Game Track: I Fade Away I Fade Away Lyrics As simple minded as it seems There is only one place for me to be And it's right here on my knees Seeking Your face Your embrace Something that I've never felt before Never felt before I make it so hard to believe That there is someone out there Reaching out their hand to Help me to my feet I've seen too much Forgot Your touch Now I'm holding the hand That holds the world That holds the world When I fade away When I see Your face I can feel You And I fade away from myself When I fade away When I see Your face I can feel You And I start to fade I'm still reminded of the days When I turned my back on You And told You we should go our Separate ways Well, I was wrong For far too long But now I've learned to Never walk away Never walk away You've shown me life through Different eyes But I'll never see the things You see No matter how hard that I try So I let go And lose control And grab a hold of the hand That holds the world That holds the world When I fade away from where I wanna be I can feel there's something different burning inside of me All songs written by Pillar © 2008 River Oaks Music Company / Flicker USA Publishing / Fireproof Music (BMI).

Song Description: This is a slower, more reflective track about forgetting ourselves in God's presence when we finally let go of insisting on doing things our way. "As simple minded as it seems/there is only one place for me to be/And it's right here on my knees/Seeing Your face/Your embrace/ ... I can feel You/And I fade away from myself." Rob says, "To me, this is a worship song. When I fade, God takes over. This song illustrates James 4:8: 'Draw near to God, and He'll draw near to you.'" Rob also says that this song is about learning to come to God with our problems instead of trying to figure it all out in our heads. "I can over-think things. But when I stop and just let God be God, when I stop and just look at Him, I don't have to think or try to figure out everything. It's not really that deep, man. It's simple: God loves you. So this song is just about being close to God, stopping, finding some silence, finding some peace-a stand-still point in your life where you can focus on who God is, where you stop and say, 'I can see Your face.'" This track also features supporting vocals from Sarah Anthony of the band Breaking the Silence.
