lyrics

Well I've been wandering
through the wilderness
searching for a place to rest my head.

But the lions prowl
and the ghosts are real
so I have lived in misery instead.

Now walking on this winding path
I stopped in hopes that someone would come along.

There was a quiet wind
and a gentle voice
said "son come and listen to my song."

He said "Don't worry Jonah,
You're gonna be just fine,
The Lord has saved your soul."
"Don't worry Daniel,
You'll sleep just fine tonight,
The Lord has saved your soul."

Now I have lived
through the longest winter,
my skin was cracked to bleed.

And I've been leaning
on the rattling tree,
I was keeping control,
keeping control.

But control is what's lead me
to an early grave.
Where I blindly professed my soul is saved.

When I'm weak
He can make me strong,
His love is all I ever need.
Yeah when we're weak
He can make us strong,
Cause His grace is all we could ever need.

He said "Don't worry Jonah,
You're gonna be just fine,
The Lord has saved your soul."
"Don't worry Daniel,
You'll sleep just fine tonight,
The Lord has saved your soul."

I don't want to leave here,
unless you'll go with me.
And I cannot go back there,
You've set my spirit free.
