Lyrics
No Returning
Daring to walk into a world beyond my own
to a life and a distant place my prayers had only known
Intending to just step in
a simple sacrifice
But they took my heart in with no return
Seeing how they survive
Chorus
Can't leave them behind now
Can't leave them behind
There's no returning
From their faces
traced in my mind
I'll go back somehow
but He's whispering now
See the eyes of the souls I've placed in your way
There's no returning
No returning from this journey
Verse 2
Knowing the ones I'll pass today are fragile too
Trying to hide their pain just to make it through
Hoping to catch their eye
so they know they're not alone
and maybe dare to just stop and ask
If I can share their road
Chorus
Bridge
It's coming clearer to me now
this journey of Your grace
is lined with hearts still searching for
Your healing touch today
Your healing touch of grace
Chorus
