Who We Are

you can't shut it out. 
it's persistent, yet patient. 
don't ignore the sound, of the Hand that's reaching. 

you can feel there's something going on. 
you plug your ears until the voice is gone. 
and you can feel that there is something wrong but it's so right,
it loosens what held you so long.

He wants to know you.  but He can't,
cuz you just keep shutting your ears. 
He wants to know you.  but He can't,
cuz you just won't listen!

you can't shut it out. 
it's persistent; and it's inviting. 
don't hide yourself, from the Light that's reaching. 

and you can feel the warmth of the Son. 
you hide away, you've lived in the dark too long.
and you can feel that this is something strong. 
but you resist; in this black ocean you belong.

He wants to know you.  but He can't,
cuz you just keep hiding away. 
He wants to know you.  but He can't
cuz you just won't stand still!

this is who we are.  and this is His message. 
would you listen? 
this is who we are. and this is His message. 
surface!
