IDEA: In The Golden Key by George MacDonald,
the main character comes across a field of
shadows made from objects above.
The physical world is a shadow of the spiritual.

Hold me through these shadow lands
Hold me help me understand

You are my reality
I wrestle with desire
Nothing of this world
Can quench the Spirit’s fire
You have created me to long for Heaven’s home
Father guide my steps as I approach Your throne

I stumble through this life
How I long to be with You
Beyond these shadow lands
Where Your light shines pure truth
Scriptures clearly show that truth will be my guide
Heaven’s endless joys are on the other side

Hold me I stumble as I run
Hold me as I follow the Son

A new day with You I reach with open hands
A new day with You beyond these shadow lands
