Paradox

(album: Canyon - 2021)

I thought if I could stand on top of the world
And see everything
I would see You so clearly
High enough for You to hear me
I thought You wanted me to reach
For heavens out of reach
I would know everything You know
But Your love's pulling me low, pulling me low, pulling me low

Now I'm in a valley, looking up
You have never felt so close
Canyons all around me, stars above
Meet me in the depths below
Where the lost is found
Where the broken is crowned
Where souls rise up from the ground
You got me in the valley looking up

I thought if I could drift away
From the deepest pain in me
I could just swim somehow
But Your love's pulling me down, pulling me down, pulling me down

Now I'm in a valley, looking up
You have never felt so close
Canyons all around me, stars above
Meet me in the depths below
Where the lost is found
Where the broken is crowned
Where souls rise up from the ground
You got me in the valley looking up

Where the misfits, they fit in
Where death brings life again
Where the lonely won't be alone
Where the orphans have a home
Where I don't have to be
Anything but what You made me
Where repentance is glorious
Our scars tell the stories
Of a current of love that's surrounding
Your love is surrounding me

Walking in a valley, looking up
You have never felt so close
Canyons all around me, stars above
Meet me in the depths below
Where the lost is found
Where the broken is crowned
Where the souls, they rise up from the ground
Got me in the valley looking up

Got me in the valley
Got me in the valley looking up
Got me in the valley looking up
