Lyrics
I spent too much time today
I used too much time today
on things that don't mean much
On things that lack significance
The world around me groans under it's tyranny of touch
The world is burdened by its overwhelming emphasis on physical contact
Every wasted thought
Each pointless thought
and every battle left unfought
And every avoided conflict
All are testimony to my need of you
All serve as evidence of my dependence on you
I'm a stranger in this land
I feel like an outsider in this world
Won't you take me by the hand
Will you guide me through it?
I can hear that distant band
I can sense a distant musical group
But I'm still a stranger in this land
Yet, I remain a stranger in this environment
Some day's at the strangest times
At peculiar moments
I feel a sense of loss
I experience a feeling of emptiness
A bite or two of stolen fruit
A taste of forbidden pleasure
and we all suffer from the cost
Leads to consequences affecting us all
But every longing for my home
Yet, every yearning for my true home
Even when I'm not alone
Even in the company of others
Stands as testimony of the coming day
Serves as evidence of an impending day of fulfillment
All I've got to do
All I need to do
is to believe on You
Is to have faith in You
Then every struggle seems worthwhile
Then every hardship becomes meaningful
I can see the promise of Your smile
I can anticipate the fulfillment of Your promise in Your smile
