Across The Sky Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Through the twisted maze of my reality
You never gave up when my hope would fade
You showed me signs, so many times
As the days went by I sensed Your touch
A steady stream that slowly turned into a flood
With all the evidence I'll ever need
There's no question of the way You prove Your love
[Chorus]
Over and over I was turned back around
Whenever I wandered somehow You would find me
You've taken me into Your heart to my home
And closed the distance with Your persistence
Like an island I have landed on many times
Your love has been the only place I could survive
When I'm all alone I hear Your voice
Constantly, You are there for me
[Chorus]
I always felt like there was someone guiding me
Through the twisted maze of my reality

In moments of solitude, I hear You speak
Constantly, You are there for me
You are always by my side, no matter what
