Stay

I’ve seen the flash of lightning

I’ve heard the rolling thunder

I’ve seen the crashing of the waves

And though I’ve known Your Presence

and been filled with wonder

Still there are many things that pull me away

Don’t let me go, hold me close because

I don’t want to hurt You anymore

I don’t want to waste another day

‘Cause it breaks Your heart, it breaks Your heart

When I keep walking away

You know what it means to sacrifice

But You tell me that it’s better to obey

You’ve giving me a thousand brand new starts

Jesus, give me what it takes to stay

I’ve seen Your hand of mercy through my darkest failures

And on the other side You’ve covered me with grace

And like a child lost and afraid, You come and find this runaway

And in Your loving arms You bring me home again

But what’s it gonna take to make me stay

Break my heart with what breaks Yours

Until You’re all I’m living for

Show me what it means not just to believe but to remain
