Perfect Unity

How did I get here? I don't really know
I could pretend I feel free when I really don't
Been trying to find peace and don't know how to
And everything in me tells me there's no peace without You
But I'm feeling doubtful. Where do I turn for guidance?
All those voices, telling me they care are getting silent
Pain has caused me to put out my flame
I'm reminiscing of when I was changed hoping things could be the same
My heart longs to be in Your presence
Seeing Your glory, feeling You breathe like our first parents
I'm not sure how we went from hearing You talk
To the world having debates on whether You’re here or not! oh how far!

How I’ve fallen. How far I’ve gotten away from You
(How far so far away from You. How far, so far I’ve fallen.)
I’ve lost my way to You
And I want to feel You breath, I need You here with me
Want to return to perfect unity

You made us spirit, soul and flesh; naked without shame
We disobeyed You even though You warned us about the pain
But wanting to be You, we made a decision
Gave up our innocence to satisfy the cravings within us
And went from walking in the spirit to walking in the flesh
Kicked out the garden rejecting you and choosing death
Now we downplay our sin, like it’s not destructive
The result is walking an earth, evil and corrupted
Everyone aiming for glory, fighting for fame
Give it a few decades, no one remembers their name
So there's gotta be something bigger than me
We still enslaved, though You've proclaimed us forgiven and free! oh how far!

How I’ve fallen. How far I’ve gotten away from You
(How far so far away from You. How far, so far I’ve fallen.)
I’ve lost my way to You
And I want to feel You breath, I need You here with me
Want to return to perfect unity

I hear them talking bout her as nothing more than a body
Lusting after appearance
But I look at her and see someone made in Your image
We've rejected Your wisdom
So we never become men just boys with selfish ambitions
So far from Your intentions, spiritual death
We turn down Your plans for us and settle for less
And I've got to be so forward and bold in confession
Cus they’re watering down Your truth, so it won't be offensive
We’re all sinners and fallen short of Your glory
Greatest story ever told but no one’s telling this story
That as rebels, You save us and make us new and will soon
Return us to a perfect state of being with total intimacy with You
