Acquiesce by Stavesacre Lyrics
Even now
Your eyes are courting sleep
I'll stay by your side
As I've always been
Sleep tonight
May your dreams reveal my love for you
Beyond what I must do
Do you know my plans for you?
To separate myself from where my treasure lies
Then naked in this cold and lonely unforgiving life
Be stripped away of all delusions of the man I'd like to be
At the moment, I am broken parts
Sure of only weaknesses with nothing left to show
No illusions left to hide behind
Burning clean has been both agony and absolute release
Can I hope to pass this test?
Is my destiny the wilderness?
The hardest part of letting go
Is trusting you with everything
In laying bare my soul
Is truly seeing who I really am
Father, what is man that You are mindful of him?
Can I pass this test?
Is my destiny this wilderness?
To stand alone
Against a life of wretchedness
Impossible to hope and so I plead your graciousness
Show me your glory
May my life reflect your presence
And never again find myself in anything less
The hardest part of letting go
Is trusting you with everything
In laying bare my soul
Is truly seeing who I really am
Father, what is man that You are mindful of him?
Your eyes are courting sleep
I'll stay by your side
As I've always been
Sleep tonight
May your dreams reveal my love for you
Beyond what I must do
Do you know my plans for you?
To separate myself from where my treasure lies
Then naked in this cold and lonely unforgiving life
Be stripped away of all delusions of the man I'd like to be
At the moment, I am broken parts
Sure of only weaknesses with nothing left to show
No illusions left to hide behind
Burning clean has been both agony and absolute release
Can I hope to pass this test?
Is my destiny the wilderness?
The hardest part of letting go
Is trusting you with everything
In laying bare my soul
Is truly seeing who I really am
Father, what is man that You are mindful of him?
Can I pass this test?
Is my destiny this wilderness?
To stand alone
Against a life of wretchedness
Impossible to hope and so I plead your graciousness
Show me your glory
May my life reflect your presence
And never again find myself in anything less
The hardest part of letting go
Is trusting you with everything
In laying bare my soul
Is truly seeing who I really am
Father, what is man that You are mindful of him?
