lyrics

We all reap in harvest what we sow
Whether good or bad sometimes I don’t know
But there’s some things I’ll always fail on my own
You say “child, won’t you come back home”

Some find darkness running far from You
Some find darkness in Your living room
Oh may my darkness never hold me from Your light
May Your light shine brighter on my darkest night

Sunlight burn away the shadows
Sunlight burn away the dark
This shadow man cannot go alone any longer

A good man dies for someone that he knows
A really good one dies for some unknown
But here’s a man the darkest parts of me He knows
His fate brought death to all I owe
My resurrection's what He sowed

Haughty blood coursing through my veins
In the brothers tale I would be the Cain
Even as I pen these lines my pride grows deep within
Jesus save me from my shadow sins
Oh won’t you save us from our shadow sins
