RACHAEL LAMPA/TOMMY SIMS
V.1:
I TAKE THE TIME TO LOOK AROUND ME
ANOTHER DAY IN A CROWD
THESE ARE THE DAYS I FEEL WHILE EVERYONE
IS MOVING ON, I'M HOLDING ON, JUST HOLDING ON
ALL ALONE WITH EVERYONE
OBLIVIOUS IS HOW I WANT TO BE
TO THE WORLD SURROUNDING ME
CUZ YOU KNOW MY NAME AND THAT'S ENOUGH FOR ME
I'M SEEING WHAT I THINK I SEE
YOU SEEING ME - EVEN
UNDERNEATH THE HEIGHT OF THINGS
CH:
WHO AM I - COMPARATIVELY
AGAINST THE WIND - BESIDE THE SEA
THROUGH TIME AND SPACE - BETWEEN THE TREES
BENEATH THE SKY - ON MY KNEES
BEHIND THE WALLS THAT MADE ME FEEL FREE
YOU OPENED THE DOOR AND YOU FOUND ME
THOUGHT I WAS LOST - GUESS I WAS WRONG
YOU HAD IT PLANNED ALL ALONG
AND YOU MADE ROOM FOR ME
V2:
NOW I'M FOREVER IN AWE THESE DAYS
OF THE WAY YOU DEAL WITH ME
HARD TO BELIEVE THAT YOU CAN ALWAYS BE
PATIENTLY CREATING STILL A BETTER ME
ALWAYS SEEING DEEP INSIDE THE BEST IN ME
AND I'M AMAZED AT WHO I AM
CARRY ON
CARRY ON
SYNOPSIS
I started these lyrics a long time ago while I was out on tour. It's about feeling inadequate and almost unworthy of the privilege of prayer. It was the first time I stood back and gained perspective on how big the world and its problems are compared to me and my issues. At times I have felt like my prayers were not nearly as important as others' and I know that I am not alone in feeling this way. But I do know that God holds the plans for every life on this earth, so He is seeing things through a bigger scope than I could ever see. And what an awesome God, that He is concerned with my concerns. I will never doubt that God isn't listening, because He made room for me in this world and I am so in awe of Him.
