Lyrics

"Belong"
-------------------
I've run a race that always rages
chasing truth that always changes
running back to starting lines again
Exhaustion calls out from the running
Stealing light out from the morning
Wondering where the steps will really end?
Can there be a race where winning
starts at the beginning?


CHORUS
I wanna live out in the sunshine rising up to meet His face
In the good ground sowing growing seeds of grace
To relate more than religion
With eternal notes of song
Is to hear His voice and find that you belong


I've watched my friendships glow and fade
Like supernovas on parade
Left behind on cool and dying stars
Moments hang like rocket silence
Dreams are lost in distant violence
Even friendship wonders who we are
There can be a tie that binds us
when the words won't find us


CHORUS

BRIDGE
I'm learning that we grow in steps
But not all steps are growing
I'm seeing that we feel these facts without our knowing
This time we'll plant a step and turn around
To jump this crashing tide
Into water flowing, rising up a spirit glowing


CHORUS
