I thought that it was you
The things you saw me do
They were true
Little did I know
You found me in your joy
And there was I, a little boy
My shadows they’re not new
My soul’s split in two
Lord, I thought that it was you
This Christmas snow that falls
Gives silence to us all, amen, amen
You know my deepest sin
You’ve seen me deep within
So fill me now like wind
And let the miracle begin
There’s a river and you know
There’s a place we used to go
That’s where I throw our ashes now
I must have walked into a cave
Among these things that you must save
And there I touched the grave
You know my deepest sin
You’ve seen me deep within
But fill me now like wind
And let the miracle begin
You know my deepest sin
You’ve seen me deep within
But fill me now like wind
And let the miracle begin
Sometimes I felt so sure
When I opened up your doors
That there’d been no one there before
You know my deepest sin
You’ve seen me deep within
But fly, fly higher from it
Just look into my eyes
You know my deepest sin
You’ve seen me deep within
But fill me now like wind
And let the miracle begin
And the secrets that you say
