lyrics

Let's just skip over everything that happened till now
Cause I need to get straight to the point
I'm bruised and I'm roadworn
Losing grip on my religion
But You're still the reason for me
You're God of the in-betweens

I think I'm thinking too much
Reading all the wrong books
Cause these doubts pile high in the night
Hear the floorboards wrestle beneath my
Wrestling heart, mind, and soul, how they fight

But maybe I'm meant for these drawn-out nights
Where I doubt everything I can stand
Cause these chinks in my armor are refracting Your light
And revealing the colors within

If I can't hold fast, well it's you that does the holding
It's not me that holds you, that's reversed
So, I'll trust that when doubts start assailing the walls
That they'll hold like they have from the first

So, I'll stare down Nietzsche and take every blow
After all, didn't you do the same?
And may my failures of mind
Be a chance for the light
Of your wisdom to glory your name

May these questions be worship
Like Jacob of old
As I wrestle with You through the night
If he who wrestles with God is the one God has chosen
Then these doubts leave no doubt in my mind
