Sometimes I think
if I could hide myself away
from the world and all I see
I'd be a better person
if I could live somewhere
far away from here
ignore the things I hear
I could live this life perfectly
But it's not the outside things
that keep me from you
it's my heart
all the inside things
it's not the outside things
that keep me from your love
it's my doubt
all the inside things
I know a place
I could lay the blame
for the pain I feel inside
though I know I shouldn't do it
and I'd like to say
it's all another's fault
that I'm not living free
but it's not them
it's all in me
It's not the outside things
that keep me from you
it's my heart
all the inside things
it's not the outside things
that keep me from your love
it's my doubt
all the inside things
The outside only mirrors what's inside of me
a true reflection of the grace I truly need
Words & Music by Frances Drost
"I’m absolutely convinced that nothing—nothing living or dead, angelic or demonic, today or tomorrow, high or low, thinkable or unthinkable—absolutely nothing can get between us and God’s love because of the way that Jesus our Master has embraced us." Romans 8:39 The Message
