Caught Up In The World Today

Caught up in the world today
I search for my escape where
I feel loved, I feel loved
Written in my heart I find
Your Word exploding through me
Like a flood, the deepest flood
I’ve spoken as angels
But I need one thing

Love, I’m surrounded by Your love
Love, I surrender to Your love

Walking on the higher way
Of certain sacrifice
You saved us all, saved us all
As I follow let me find
A passion, God, to love
My neighbour more, so much more
My faith’s moved the mountains
But I need one thing

Love is patient, love is kind
Not a monster with green eyes
Doesn’t boast and isn’t proud
Or raise itself way above the crowd
It is for hope and it is for good
Turns its cheek when
misunderstood
Always trusts, always saves
And hopes you’ll run the race
