YOU SHOWED ME

Oh…The sweet reverence
Touching off inside
Mmm…the pure splendor
Witnessed with these eyes

I am ever so thankful 
For your lavish gifts
Enhancing the glory
Found in the life I live

~~~*Chorus*~~~

I only saw the darkness before

I knew that light was out there

If I would just unlock the doors

When we choose to remain blind

To the wonders that God gives outside

No one can be blamed for our own faults…

But you showed me

Showed me I could have it all

~~*~~

Oh…In the beginning
Was a photograph
One single flower
So perfectly cast

I was totally captured
Could not look away
I wanted to touch it
I went outside that day

~~~*Chorus*~~~

I only saw the darkness before

I knew that light was out there

If I would just unlock the doors

When we choose to remain blind

To the wonders that God gives outside

No one can be blamed for our own faults…

But you showed me

Showed me I could have it all

~~*~~

I marveled at the grace
Each petal displayed
Wandered down a path
To a bench down by the lake

Stayed to watch the sunset
Wished you could see it too
I couldn't be more hopeful
As my life begins anew…

~~~*Chorus*~~~

I only saw the darkness before

I knew that light was out there

You helped me unlock the doors

When we choose to remain blind

To the wonders that God gives outside

No one can be blamed for our own faults…

But you showed me

Showed me I could have it all

~~*~~
