Awake in Grace

Can you hear me?

Is anyone listening tonight?

I'm staring at the ceiling,

looking for a sign Tracing every mistake in this fragile mind of

mine They told me youth is beautiful,

but it feels like a test Just a boy in his bedroom,

trying to find some rest I keep my head down,

searching for the light Will You guide my steps through the middle

of the night?

And the noise of the world gets so loud

I just want to make You proud

God, can You hear me when I cry?

Walking through the dark,

looking at the sky

(hear

me) Give me the strength to stand up tall

Hold onto my hand,

don't let me fall

I tried to build my kingdom on a foundation of sand Now

I'm learning how to surrender my plans to Your hand

Twenty-something years and I'm still learning who I am

Looking in the mirror,

trying to understand But every time I wander,

You draw me back again In a world of temporary,

You're my only constant friend

God, can You hear me when I cry?

Walking through the dark,

looking at the sky

(hear

me) Give me the strength to stand up tall

Hold onto my hand,

don't let me fall

Can You hear me?

(I know You hear me)

Just a young soul finding his way home
