lyrics

North of Castaic
I'm glad to have made it
I went to the Lord and asked for you by name
Holy dependence
To walk in remembrance
I wouldn't have asked if you hadn't the faith

Call when you're able
No, I'm not unstable
But it's still a war and I long for your voice
No fear of hell when
Despair has repellant
A friend with a sword and a heart full of joy

There
I'm weak
You caught me
All that I am's the blood that bought me
You saw to it that His love's not lost me
Fought for me every time you fought me

Am I ashamed?

Find righteous brothers
There's no shame in covers
The world can be cold but we don't have to freeze
So my feet were bruised till you
Helped me tie my shoes and you
Taught me to run in the Gospel of peace

Screaming on the cliffside
Barely believing on the cliffside
Inches from speeding off the cliffside
Just can't stop grieving life on this side
You aren't afraid to hear my soul cry
I'm not afraid to let you see it
And when you say we're safe in His side
You make it easy to believe it

You lift my head
When you come around
When you come around
You lift my head
When you come around
When you come around
You lift my head
When you come around
When you come around
You lift my head
When you come around
Will you come around?

Come around
