Unbelief

Oh all the beauty You have for me
I barely believe it
Even on the best of days
I don't know how to receive it
Sometimes I'd rather eat the crumbs that fall from Your feast
Than face the responsibility of taking my seat

So I've been stumbling down the sidewalk beside the streets of gold
And I've been racing round in circles as if Your word won't hold
I'm just existing and missing out on the best You have for me
Oh won't you help my help my unbelief

I see You dancing out on the waves
You call to me once more
But I feel so at home right here
Sitting safe on the shore
But still You speak Your truth to me and fear loses hold
Somehow this tiny seed of faith is beginning to grow

So why've I been stumbling down the sidewalk beside the streets of gold
And why've I been racing round in circles as if Your word won't hold
Why just existing and missing out on the best You have for me
Oh won't you help my help my unbelief

Now I see
That I'm the thief
I've robbed myself of the gift You gave to everyone
And now I face
What's gone to waste
Faith unrisked is a song unsung

So I won't keep stumbling down the sidewalk beside the streets of gold
And I won't keep racing round in circles as if Your word won't hold
Not just existing and missing out on the best You have for me
I know You'll help my help my unbelief
