Oasis
Stephen Stanley Lyrics

Mm, na-na-na-na Mm-mm
Opening sound of the song

I spend hours in my car
I am lost and uncertain with my life

Wondering what I′m doing here
Questioning my existence and purpose

In this wasteland of my heart
Feeling lonely and empty inside

Wishing home would reappear
Longing for comfort and familiarity

And I'm holding on so far (holding on so far)
I'm struggling but trying my best to survive

Hoping that my vision′s clear (oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
Wanting to have a clear understanding of my life

Looking for that Northern star
Searching for direction and guidance

If it's real then show me where
Asking for a sign to know which path to take

Lead me there
Asking for help to reach my destination

I need You now, oh-ooh-oh-oh
Asking for divine intervention

Come find me out, oh-ooh-oh-oh
Pleading for God's presence and guidance

Shine a light in my dark places, I need You to be
Asking for comfort and light in times of darkness

My sweet oasis (my sweet oasis), my sweet oasis (hey)
Referencing to God as a comforting source of relief

Give me shelter, give me peace
Wishing for a peaceful and secure place

Silence every single fear (na-na-na-na-na)
Asking for courage and liberation from fear

And I brought it here with me
Acknowledging one's own fears and doubts

But pain is not my souvenir
Choosing not to stay in the past suffering

Oh, come near
Wishing for God's presence and attention

I know every corner of this desert
Familiarity with the struggles of life

But You know it better, you know it better
Acknowledging that God knows better

I've let my emotions keep me drifting
Admitting that emotions have taken control over oneself

Would You be my anchor? Would You be my anchor?
Asking God to be an anchor in difficult times

Won′t You shine a light in my dark places? I need You to be
Re-emphasizing the need for God's light and comfort

My sweet oasis (my sweet oasis), my sweet oasis
Continuing the theme of God as a comforting source of relief
