Don't Look Away

A quiet and peaceful moonlit night
Though I'm tired, I'm sleepless
Troubled inside, my eyes open wide
Uncommon pain in common places
There in a dozen faces
All calling my name
And their hands reach for mine
And they're cryin'
(Don't look away)
See how I've been wounded
(Don't turn your face)
See my face as your own
(Don't look away)
Put your arms around me
Don't go closing your eyes
To the truth as you pray
I'm face to face with the anger inside me
The face of love is hiding
Can't give it away
I'm too hurt to say
I wish I was, I wish that I could be
The way you've always wanted
I'll give you my best
And I'll pray for the rest
I'm prayin'
(Don't look away)
See how I've been wounded
(Don't turn your face)
See my face as your own
(Don't look away)
Tenderness enfold me
I'm not closing my eyes
To the truth as I pray
Don't look away
We've nailed the hands and feet of a Savior
So blind to all that matters
But still he can see
And his voice reaches me
He's singing
(Don't look, don't look away)
No! Don't turn your face
(Don't look)
Don't look away
(Don't look away)
I'm not closing my eyes
Don't look away
See how I've been wounded
(Don't turn your face)
See my face as your own
(Don't look away)
Don't go closing your eyes
(Don't look away
Don't turn your face
Don't look away)
Put your arms around me, yeah
(Don't look away)
See how I've been wounded
(Don't turn your face)
See my face as your own
(Don't look away)
Let tenderness enfold you
Don't go closing your eyes
(Don't look away)
See how I've been wounded
(Don't turn your face)
