VERSE 1:

Wide awake

In the dead of night 

While the world comes apart

You keep watch 

When my vision is blurry 

And my thoughts run afar


You step in 

When the wolves come prowling

And the thieves come to steal 

?Cause You don?t sleep

When my world spins in darkness

And I can?t tell what?s real 


CHORUS:

Show me Your heart

?Cause I need a Father

Show me Your love 

?Cause I need something that won?t break 


Show me Your scars

?Cause I need a Saviour

Show me Your heart

?Cause I just need a place I can run 

And fall into the arms of my Father

I just need to know there?s someone

So beautiful to me


VERSE 2:

You don?t hide

From my heavy mess 

When I hide the worst parts

You don?t run

From the thick of the fight

No You never lose heart 


You don?t quit 

When I throw the towel in 

Or lose patience when I fall 

?Cause You just give 

And You?ll never give up

Till I?m every bit Yours


BRIDGE 1:

Oh what?s impossible

To a heart that trusts in You 

I?ll sing Your praise 

Like it?s all I got

And my life depends on You 


Oh what?s impossible

To this love I have in You 

I?ll sing Your praise 

Like it?s all I got 

And my all belongs to You 


BRIDGE 2:

You?ve been faithful 

So I will trust You

Even when the way is dark 

You?ll hold true

When the rest fades away

So I?ll sing Your praise

Yeah I?ll sing Your praise 


BRIDGE 3:

Oh what?s impossible

To a heart that trusts in You 

I?ll sing Your praise 

Like it?s all I got

And my life depends on You 


Oh what?s impossible

To this love I have in You 

I?ll sing Your praise 

Till it?s all I got

And my all belongs to You
