Not as This World Lyrics

Blinded by shining tears
I've walked out into fields just to find You
Thirsting for living water
I've struck the rock in anger just to remind You

Holy God, You promised me Your peace
And I'm still here holding on
Please release me

Everything I want may not be what You want for me
Not as this world gives, do You give
I'm starting to see, release me

Five thousand miles from home
I come into my own, is this blessing?
I've found riches in my exile
I'm strongest when I'm fragile, You keep me guessing

Holy God, I'm starving at Your feast
I can't help feeling so unworthy
Please release me

Everything I want may not be what You want for me
Oh, oh, not as this world gives, do You give
I'm starting to see, release me

Release me, release me, release me

Holy God, I'm starving at Your feast
Oh c'mon, I'm feeling so unworthy
Please release me, oh please release me

Everything I want may not be what You want for me
Oh, oh, not as this world gives, do You give
I'm starting to see, release me
