Not As This World

Blinded by shining tears
I've walked out into fields just to find you
Thirsting for living water

I've struck the rock in anger just to remind you

Holy God you promised me your peace
And I'm still here holding on, please release me

CHORUS
Everything I want may not be what you want for me
Not as this world gives do you give
I'm starting to see
Release me

Five thousand miles from home
I come into my own - is this blessing?
I've found riches in my exile
I'm strongest when I'm fragile - you keep me guessing

Holy God I'm starving at your feast
Can't help feeling so unworthy - please release me

CHORUS
