Paul Smith (US) - Back to Who I Am lyrics

What is happening to me? As I look at my reflection A familiar stranger once again I see My pursuit of greater things Has blocked my view of heaven And what should really matter most to me Oh, the simple faith I used to have I know you long to see From my land of compromise You're calling me Back to who I am Back where we began Taking childlike steps of faith To walk with you again Looking up to find you Every chance I can When my eyes are drawn away Lead me by the hand Back to who I am Oh, how I complicate my life Pushed and pulled in all directions Being everything to everyone but You Burning energy and time Building things the world can notice And missing what You want me most to do I could sharpen my perspective I would never lose my way If I let my heart return to You each day Back to who I am Back where we began Taking childlike steps of faith To walk with you again Looking up to find you Every chance I can When my eyes are drawn away Lead me by the hand Back to who I am Oh, Lord, let my eyes see me as You do Oh, Lord, the best I am Begins and ends with You Oh, the simple faith I used to have I know you long to see From my land of compromise You're calling me Back to who I am Back where we began Taking childlike steps of faith To walk with you again Looking up to find you Every chance I can When my eyes are drawn away Lead me by the hand Back to who I am
