In Plain Sight
We are bored with our freedom- so we strive to acquire
More things and more distractions, More activities to spark our desire.
All our things and our functions leave life lonely and void
Bored to death with our fancies we thought we enjoyed.
For all we really need is just a portion of joy and trust
Intimacy and love.
And beyond this mortal veil we can sense that we have failed
Anything like that from above.
we are hungry and we are lonely and we don't know what satisfies
We are starving in our spirits for a glimpse of God that we can recognize.
Turn your eyes to Jesus for He is in plain sight.
Let the world fade away from view tonight
Let Him be all you see and you'll be sure
To believe to follow and endure.
