Man In the Mirror

Clear away all the foggy steam and peer into it deeply So much of it doesn't seem to be the way it used to be For things change so slowly that many won't even realize You're not who you used to be least through these eyes All that innocence has since fled leaving you high and dry From one who was once led to one who will no longer try The best of you has retreated and given in to this place Your faith all but depleted but for the Love of God's Grace Do not turn and look away but look just a little bit deeper All the things you used to say in that being who you were Somehow that all got buried and so you just left it behind Yet you needn't be worried in such forgiveness you'll find So open up that treasure chest and again sing His Praise Give Him all of your best as well as the worst of your days One never needs to be so hollow with God so close at hand All you need do is follow, your heart will help you understand
