Hard edged and lyrical with an old fashioned acid rock tone...mindful of Pink Floyd but also very different.

As Christians, we've all been there - that place where we chose one more day outside God's will rather than submit. The folly of it, and the struggle to return to Him.

When I'm feeling
As though I've been forsaken
It's a measure of the distance
Down a road that I have taken
My foolish ways confound me
And my steps have led me far away from You.

My thoughts are reeling
And my lonely heart is breakin'
I'm sure it's just an awful dream
From which I can't awaken
Rich rags of this world surround me
Willfully I've gone astray from You

(Chorus)
From You.
I've tossed the good things from my life
Pushed you far away
Your absence cuts me like a knife
From you came my deliverance
Salvation I can only get from You

When I'm feelin'
Ain't no reasons left to live
Like I'm living life on empty
Ain't got nothing left to give
My own lies deceive me
My eyes blind to the light that comes from You

With all my dirty dealin
And the follies of my pride
I forget I only need to turn
To find You at my side
But one more day to have my way
My own heart keeps me set apart from You

(chorus)

You said You'd never leave
And You've never let me down
And if I'd just believe
You'd help me turn my life around
Every time I've asked You've answered
How could I forget these gifts from You

I'm turning toward You now
Though it's hard to bend this knee
Have mercy on this stubborn heart
Reach out and set me free
Wash away these selfish stains
Save me from my turn away from You

From You
Came all the good things in my life
Fill me with Your grace
Make me a living sacrifice
From You came my deliverance
Salvation I could only get from You
Every breath I take comes from You
