My hope is deferred, my heart is sick and sorrow has taken my sight
The vision is gone, my faith has died and each day has become like the night
I look to the north, I look to the south, I look to the east and the west
Which way do I go? I'm lost and alone, I feel like I've failed the test
My dancing has turned to mourning and my mouth just can't sing praise
With no hope for a future, I just can't go on; oh where is the Ancient Of Days?
Please show me the way, breathe in me new life and the truth that will set me free
Have I been abandoned? Am I forgotten? Have you forsaken me?
Please forgive me my Lord for believing a lie, your word is forever true
You promised you would never leave me no matter what I do
My comforter has come, my peace is restored, I am transformed by renewing my mind
I've come forth from the tomb, the grave clothes are removed and I leave all my former thoughts behind
Resurrected from despair to a higher place with my King
His glory is risen upon me and again I will dance and sing
My heart is glad, my flesh rests in hope and my glory rejoices forever more
I will fight the good fight, run the race and on eagles wings I will soar
The vision is gone, my faith has died and each day has become like the night
I look to the north, I look to the south, I look to the east and the west
Which way do I go? I'm lost and alone, I feel like I've failed the test
My dancing has turned to mourning and my mouth just can't sing praise
With no hope for a future, I just can't go on; oh where is the Ancient Of Days?
Please show me the way, breathe in me new life and the truth that will set me free
Have I been abandoned? Am I forgotten? Have you forsaken me?
Please forgive me my Lord for believing a lie, your word is forever true
You promised you would never leave me no matter what I do
My comforter has come, my peace is restored, I am transformed by renewing my mind
I've come forth from the tomb, the grave clothes are removed and I leave all my former thoughts behind
Resurrected from despair to a higher place with my King
His glory is risen upon me and again I will dance and sing
My heart is glad, my flesh rests in hope and my glory rejoices forever more
I will fight the good fight, run the race and on eagles wings I will soar
