Getting Past the Apathy

I want to say thank You
But I don’t want to use words
They seem to fade into the night
I want to say I love you
But I don’t want to use words
I want to show you with my life
Lord you’ve healed the brokenhearted
Please collect these broken dreaming wings that I’ve discarded

I know this is the wrong way
I know you have greater plans for me
Than to spend my life day to day
Wallowing in apathy
Bring me past this place

And I know on the outside my life seems so free
From anything that may erase this smile
But there is an inside to me
No one cares to see
Where there is an empty hole I hide
And I have never had a best friend
Before the day I met complacency
And I’m so afraid to let her go

I am lifting my hands to the sky
But I am looking down
Singing praises to Your Name
Beautiful words escape this frown
