When I heard this song from Bebo Norman on the WOW2005 CD, I cried. This song captured all the strife and anxiety that I've been throwing at the Lord's feet these past days. It's quite a simple song with simple chords and yet took all my complexities and laid it out in 3 minutes and 50 seconds.
Verse 1
On a day like this
I want to crawl beneath a rock
A million miles from the world,
the noise, the commotion
That never seems to stop
Verse 2
And on a day like this
I want to run away from the routine
Run away from the daily grind
that can suck the life
Right out of me
I know of only one place
I can run to…
Chorus:
I want to hide in You
The Way, the Life, the Truth
So I can disappear
And love is all there is to see
Coming out of me
And You become clear
As I disappear
Verse 3:
I don’t want to care about earthly things
Be caught up in all the lies
that trick my eyes
They say it’s all about me
I’m so tired of it
being about me… (Chorus)
Bridge:
I would rather be cast away
Separated from the human race
If I don’t bring You glory
If I don’t bring You glory
If I don’t bring You glory
