Walking the streets alone
City streets, dark and cold
Buildings that scrape the sky
Half-lit windows
Watching the cars go by
Blurs of red, orange, white
Thinking of all their many destinations
Desolate
In this crowded world I still feel all alone and faint
Barely here and
Desolate
In this crowded world I still feel all alone and faint
Barely breathing
Walking the streets alone
City streets, dark and cold
Buildings that scrape the sky
Half-lit windows
Watching the cars go by
Blurs of red, orange, white
Thinking of all their many destinations
Searching for Your voice in my ears
Looking for You in the sky
I still feel You when I'm praying
Closer still, my one desire
Let me hear Your precious voice and
Draw me near and coax my eyes
Raise me to Thy right hand, Father
Lift me up and make clear my life's purpose
