#study of grace

You're drifting far, far away I can see you fade, fade away Back to the crowds Those ordinary people in my life

Sometimes you'd climb back up One step then another But when people that matter more show up You'd fall back to the crowd

You're just part of the others now. No longer special No longer remarkable In my life

But don't disappear altogether Because you're the same great person That you always were

Limot ko na ang alaala ng panahong lumipas Sa unang pagkasilay sa 'yong mga likha Hangga't di nawawala ang aking gunita Kakayanin kaya na maglaho na lamang?

Limot ko na ang diwa na siya kong kasayahan Sa unang pagkasilay sa 'yong kagandahan Hangga't di naglalaho ang siya kong alaala Kakayanin kaya na mapawi na lamang?

I go to places here and there I would have gone far and wide But there is an anchor upon my feet That always tells me which way is home   You have gone places here and there You have gone far and wide But you've always stayed your heart with us You've always known which way is home   I would have us go places here and there I would have us go far and wide But you are weary in heart and soul May you find refuge and strength at home...   I go places here and there Your name over me far and wide You are the anchor upon my feet With you I always have a home
