FORGET WHAT'S BEHIND
(Lyrics and Video)
I have travelled many nights
Through a forest dark and deep
In my mind waging war
My enemies surrounding me,
My heart has taken turns
Down paths it should not go
Crouching down under the trees
My wearied eyes searching around,
But all that changes
When I see Your fire burnin’
And I run like wild into the night, toward You
And forget what’s behind, oo
Forget what’s behind, oo
Forget what’s behind, oh
Forget what’s behind!
As I come upon the fire
You built for You and I
I taste the bread You made to share
The water drawn from the Well,
I see Your eyes of wisdom
Hear Your voice of constant warmth
Under the night sky I find
My heart drawing to You,
And everything changes
When I feel Your fire burnin’
And I sing like wild into the night, toward You
And forget what’s behind, oo
Forget what’s behind, oo
Forget what’s behind, oh
Forget what’s behind!
Your voice, Christ Jesus, speaks the better word
Your heart, Christ Jesus, beats the better song
Your fire, Christ Jesus, burns the night away
It burns what’s behind
