Once you were frightened, scared half to death,
But the way you were going, well, it choked out your breath,
You decided to change - to turn was the only way,
So there's no time to turn back, just trust him today.

'Cause you'll walk the dark forest, you'll cut out the light,
You'll just be too tired to see,
You'll run out of the brightness and into the night when he call you to come back to me.

So you hold your head high as they cut you to shreds,
They tell you, you can't learn to fly 'til you get out of bed,
No need to listen to them, no need to gloat,
Now you've jumped in the deep end for him, Jesus will keep you afloat.

'Cause you'll walk the dark forest, you'll cut out the light,
You'll just be too tired to see,
You'll run out of the brightness and into the night when he call you to come back to me, oh.

'Cause you'll walk the dark forest, you'll cut out the light,
You'll just be too tired to see,
You'll run out of the brightness and into the night when he call you to come back to me.

Our Father in Heaven, may your name be praised,
It's to you, our Father, our hands we will raise,
Father, I know we've been wrong, acting our lives like a song,
Oh, but you're always there at the end of a prayer,
Just when I'm stalling, you keep on calling.

You are the light of the world, you're in the kingdom to be,
You're the creator of all of the Earth, you're calling all the people to see.

He loves you,
He wants you,
He needs you,
The Father needs you,
Oh, how he needs you,
He loves you,
He wants you,
He loves you,
The Father needs you.
