Face To Face

This has gotta to be about the hundredth time
I'ver cross examined myself
Try to read my mind
As I put my longing heart back on the shelf
Look at all the pieces
The details take control
Consuming all my soul

Every single moment becomes a point of deep anxiety
Trying hard to love You, while holding fast to my sobriety
Just another struggle to find a way to make me more like you
Just keep on pushing through the things i have to do

Chorus:
But i am asking how to spread my wings
and fly far from these chains
and try standing in the open breeze
Face to face with mercy

Can i learn to thank You

For all the things i cannot understand

Can i learn to trust You

when You shake the convictional rock on which i stand

Can i learn to seek You

Before forming my own deep philosophy

Lord won't you help me see

i need simplicity
