Lyrics
Early Sunday morning
I step outside my door,
The wind is blowing through my hair
It's been a little while
Since I last saw you, Jesus
Please show me a clue,
You're still there.
CHORUS
---------
I can feel you in my heart
I can hear you in my mind
And I can see you through my eyes
You were there all the time.
------------------------------
Sometimes when Im all alone,
....in the midst of darkness
And im blind to the light
So I reach inside my heart,
and you hold out your hand.
And I pray with all my might.
-------
CHORUS
-------
Out Walking in the street,
I feel a little lost
Its hard to keep up the pace.
Up straight ahead, shines a golden light.
Thank you Jesus, I can see your face...
