Shadow of Your Hand
Lost in a little room
One with whitened-out windows where no one goes
Lost in an empty space
Where no one else can reach me or hear me cry
But the Shepherd never sleeps
Nor leaves off searching for His sheep
So how can I be afraid?
For You will find my heart again
You can warm my fears away
And I won't be alone
For You will bring me home again
Safe into the shadow of Your hand
I was an only one
Separate and different and so aware
That I was a lonely one
Without a friend to call me to say "Hi"
But the Shepherd knows His sheep
He alone will meet their needs
So how can I be afraid?
For You laid down your life for me
You became the living door
And I won't be alone
I can hear You calling me
Safe into the shadow of Your hand
Here, there is life for me
Life in such abundance from You
Here, there is sanctuary
And entering through you I find Your peace
For the Shepherd knows his sheep
His is the only voice they heed
So how can I be afraid?
Now that You have found my heart again
You who've warmed my fears away
And I won't be alone
Now that You have brought me home again
Safe into the shadow of Your hand
