Lyrics
What's to gain if you walk across the coals but feel no pain
Sometimes you gotta be the wick before the flame
Or broken down to be made whole
Led astray to where bones begin to dry out and decay
Because nothing ever grows where there's no rain
To satisfy a weary soul and wash away the stains
The shepherd leaves his flock in search of one
Desperate for restitution of
The wayward brother, the forgotten son
Out there on his own
There's a war that's taking place outside the realm of time and space
Somewhere in between the darkness and the light
I've been the lost
I've been the saved and lived on both sides of the fray
I've been the one
And one of the ninety-nine
I gotta say
Sometimes life will give you more than you can take
And you feel more like the chaff than the hay
Vaporized and blown away
But every day
All the broken edges of me slowly fade
And the image underneath begins to change
Sanctified under grace
It's still who I am
But it's not who I'll stay because
The shepherd left his flock in search of one
Desperate for restitution of
The wayward brother, the forgotten son
Out there on my own
There's a war that's taking place in every heart from every race
Somewhere in between the darkness and the light
I've been the lost
I've been the saved and walked on both sides of the grave
I've been the one
And one of the ninety-nine
I hear your voice
I hear your voice
Cut through the noise
Cut through the noise
Oh there is no city here for me
This land is for the dead for the dead
I'm waking up
I'm waking up
And my eyes can clearly see that I'm the one who left
From the ninety-nine
