Tobymac - Face of the Earth

Face of the earth

It's been a long time coming
Since I saw your face
Since we held it down
Since we were in the chase

It was the road less traveled
The path less formed
A skinny trail
It was barely worn

But we kept on walkin'
And slippin' and talkin'
And runnin' and fallin'
And cryin' and crawlin'

We were in the trenches, on top of the world
Young refugees but we were mama's pearls
Where you been, dog?
Where you been?

I thought you fell off the face of the earth
I thought you fell, I thought you fell
I thought you fell off the face of the earth
I thought you fell, I thought you fell

It's been way too long and we've come too far
For you to drop out of my life like a falling star
Right off my radar, not a sign or a trace
You know I had love for you that's bigger than mistakes

Now Hope Road is calling, let's pack you up and move
'Cause real friends are willing to intrude
So I'ma push you in 'cause I wanna love you well
Let ghosts of your past rest

I thought you fell off the face of the earth
I thought you fell, I thought you fell
I thought you fell off the face of the earth
I thought you fell, I thought you fell
I thought you fell off the face of the earth

Open up the door
This is the first day of the rest of your life
What are you waiting for?
This is the first day of the rest of your life

I thought you fell off the face of the earth
I thought you fell, I thought you fell
I thought you fell off the face of the earth
I thought you fell, I thought you fell

Open up the door
This is the first day of the rest of your life
I thought you fell
What are you waiting for?
This is the first day of the rest of your life
I thought you fell

Open up the door
Open up the door to life
Open up the door
What are you waiting for
Open up the door to life

Behold, I stand at the door and knock
If anyone hears my voice and opens the door
I will come in
