04. Lost In The Shadows

For The Sake Of The Call
by Steven Curtis Chapman



 

I wake to the sound of different voices calling my name
Two little ones who want to start another day
And one voice that's calling
Take up your cross and come follow Me

And I want to get lost
In the shadow of the cross
To answer the all surrender it all
in the shadow
I want to live this (each) day
With a humble heart
that's ready to pay
Whatever it costs to find myself lost
In the shadow of the cross

Living beneath the burden of this cross I carry
I'm finding more of Christ and losing more of me
So I'll hide in His shadow
Until I am nothing and He is everything

And I want to get lost
In the shadow of the cross
To answer the all surrender it all
in the shadow
I want to live this (each) day
With a humble heart
that's ready to pay
Whatever it costs to find myself lost
In the shadow of the cross

The voices that call to me like my little ones are sleeping
But here in the shadow there's one whisper I still hear

And I want to get lost
In the shadow of the cross
To answer the all surrender it all
in the shadow
I want to live this (each) day
With a humble heart
that's ready to pay
Whatever it costs to find myself lost
In the shadow of the cross
