Song Lyrics
Surround
My hearts resounding
My mind is drowning
Any sound that I might hear
They all surround me
It’s so confounding
I am afflicted by this fear
Questions fail
I make requests to no avail
Hiding everything in me
In my ever darker jail
Still they attack
Exposing everything I lack
This is my identity
Failing inside the black
Shadows cast
My reflections never last
Their words always cut so deep
But my defense is unsurpassed
You are real
You know everything I feel
Receive my life in Your hands
You take my scars to heal
I fade away
You take my place
I am safe forever
In your loving embrace
You are Everything in me
You are my foundation
You are my savior
I am Your creation
