Been drawing curved and crooked lines with each new pace I take On what once was solid ground, my footsteps hard for me to retrace We’ve got a few more precious hours left of daylight
I scan the colors of the sky to see what it took

Through dancing curved and crooked limbs peek each familiar ray Like blinking memories of the past, and just as fast they fade away We’ve got a few more fleeting hours left of daylight
I chase the shadows on the ground for a closer look But not quick enough to see the light myself
To see the light
I hoped I’d see it set

Hold me once, and take from another Lift the weight of days that I’m under Break the dusk and woes that I suffer Carry me in light of forever

Hold me, console the lonely
And lift up wholly my burdens from me these days Break through the darkness ensued
And in Your truth carry me in the light of forever

Hold me, lift the lowly
And make me holy, my burdens mold me, these days break Mercy ensued
And in Your truth You carry me in the light of forever
