Again, just a song, which has gotten some pretty good praise elsewhere...
Verse 1:
Lookin at the world I have
The blue sky
On the surface it seems so good
So why
Why do I feel like
There’s something wrong I can’t see
I know it can’t be You, God
So maybe it must be me

We all try to blend with those
Who don’t want the yellow rose
But I disagree
Cover what you need to hide
But let your self go free

Chorus:
I’m hiding from You, Lord
Keeping secrets from You
Help me to be honest, I pray
And let me shine through
To You
Let me be myself
Show my self to your world
You’re my Father
I should not be ashamed
To know You

Verse 2:
I try to show your love
Try to tell others of your light
But deep under my kindness
Is my own spiritual fight

I deny it all, please understand
We don’t want to admit
That none of us is perfect
And we should submit
…To you

Chorus

This world is being torn apart
By its chosen keepers
God, I ask of you
To use your healing words
Spread your glory through us
Keep our cold hearts warm
To show your beautiful creation
To blow your golden horn

Chorus

To know you… know you…

Verse 3:
Lord, give me the strength
To keep you in my house
You love everyone
From the lion to the mouse

We all praise You
And gather together
To say what’s on everybody’s mind
“I exist because of You”
“I am saved because of you”
“We should not be afraid
To forever love and be loved
By
You”

Chorus

Know you
...
Know you
...
(whispered) I love you, God
(sung) and I want to know you
