Lyrics
I once stood upon the ground
And my eyes looked out
I saw others standing around
And I found I wanted to intercede for them
I saw purpose and meaning
And found I felt passion for my King
I saw God's kingdom was advancing
And found I wanted to be apart of it
But I tripped and fall backwards into a pit
In the mist of my headache I opened my eyes
And found the walls and the floor were mirrors
No matter where I looked I saw me
They reflected my every angle
And I was multiplied time and again
I could not open my eyes without seeing
my imperfections and frailty
I could not run, I could not hide
I could just watched as I wasted away
Eventually God would lift me out
And things would return to that first verse instantaneously
But recently I go to sleep on land and wake up in the pit
Other times I've been pushed,
A few times I've even run and dove in
God now seems slower to pull me out
He leaves me there for months
And my respites on land are very brief
And my eyes looked out
I saw others standing around
And I found I wanted to intercede for them
I saw purpose and meaning
And found I felt passion for my King
I saw God's kingdom was advancing
And found I wanted to be apart of it
But I tripped and fall backwards into a pit
In the mist of my headache I opened my eyes
And found the walls and the floor were mirrors
No matter where I looked I saw me
They reflected my every angle
And I was multiplied time and again
I could not open my eyes without seeing
my imperfections and frailty
I could not run, I could not hide
I could just watched as I wasted away
Eventually God would lift me out
And things would return to that first verse instantaneously
But recently I go to sleep on land and wake up in the pit
Other times I've been pushed,
A few times I've even run and dove in
God now seems slower to pull me out
He leaves me there for months
And my respites on land are very brief
