Shadow Of Jesus

What happened to the heart that I gave you
What are you hiding in your chest these days
You wanted somebody to save you
I wanted someone who could not be saved
Living in the shadow of Jesus
It's so hard to bear your cross every day
Was it easy for you, Christ,
It's murdering me
Now I'm down on my knees with a reason to pray
You tell me experience has changed you
From where I'm looking that's not hard to see
You wanted out and how could I blame you
When I'm not looking are you blaming me
Living in the shadow of Jesus
It's so hard to bear your cross every day
Was it easy for you, Christ,
It's murdering me
Now I'm down on my knees with a reason to pray
We've shifted into meaningless chatter
This kind of talking could go on for days
We've been through the heart of the matter
Don't make no difference at the end of the day
Living in the shadow of Jesus
It's so hard to bear your cross every day
Was it easy for you, Christ,
It's murdering me
Now I'm down on my knees with a reason to pray
