Chasing the Wind - Wolves At The Gate

But look at me now, I’m reaching much higher

I’m trying so hard, but quickly I tire

When will it be enough?

So often I see Your beauty surrounding me

But find my way out

What’s wrong with my heart?

This friction of bound and free

That fills light with doubt

When will it be enough to know just grace and stop chasing the wind?

I tried to be wise with foolish volition

Working to earn my place

Oh how I was bold, but ignored my condition

Forgetting «all of grace»

I feel the push and the pulls as it all tears me apart

I’m tripping over my pride, what’s wrong with my heart?

I feel the push and the pulls as it all tears me apart

I’m tripping over my pride, what’s wrong with my heart?

When will it be enough to know just grace and stop chasing the wind?

Oh how much I’ve sinned!

So often I see the darkness that’s found in me

But clinch my eyes shut

My guilt will agree I drown in the deepest sea

Yet how could this be?

I’ve been such a liar

Who’s got nothing to give and none You require

How could I forget?

Your ways are much higher

I couldn’t afford mercy

Declaring to me Your love doesn’t tire

You must be everything

You’ve taken my curse and all that I’ve squandered

There’s nothing that I could bring

That despite all my flaws and how far I’ve wandered

You’ve given everything

You’re longing to show Your mercy

My weakness reveals Your beauty

You’re longing to show Your mercy

My weakness reveals Your beauty
