Shadows Ain't Grace

Sometimes the dawn comes through the pain Sometimes the sun arrives through rain [Verse 1] Growth don’t knock with gentle hands It shakes the roots, it shifts the land Breaks the walls you leaned upon Till the old you’s dead and gone Truth don’t always feel like grace Sometimes it stings you in the face Cuts the lie from flesh and bone Leaves you standin’ there alone [Chorus] It’s right in front of you You’re just not seein’ it yet What’s hidden in the shadows Ain’t gone, it just ain’t met Open your eyes, stay awake Let the hard road make you new Awareness is the key, my friend What you need’s right in front of you [Verse 2] We keep searchin’ distant skies For answers dressed in grand disguise While mercy waits beside our feet In common ground, in quiet streets You want thunder, signs, and flames But wisdom rarely calls your name It whispers soft through daily light “Son, behold what’s in your sight” [Chorus] It’s right in front of you You’re just not seein’ it yet What’s hidden in the shadows Ain’t gone, it just ain’t met Open your eyes, stay awake Let the hard road make you new Awareness is the key, my friend What you need’s right in front of you [Bridge] When the blindfold falls away Night turns into breakin’ day Not because the world has changed But because your heart was rearranged No new map, no secret door Just seeing what was there before The treasure buried plain and true Was always waiting there for you [Chorus] It’s right in front of you You’re just not seein’ it yet The truth can hurt before it heals But don’t you live with regret Open your eyes, stand your ground Let the fire pull you through Awareness is the key, my friend What you need’s right in front of you Yeah, it’s right in front of you [Outro] No farther road, no higher view Just clearer eyes to carry through What was hidden now shines through It was right in front of you...
