Face to Face

If you let me, I will be your shelter
I will be your strength and shield
As you battle in the field alone

There are moments when I sit and look into this heart
That now you've made your home
Never really understanding all that you have done
To change this heart to flesh from stone

It's at these moments when I feel I'd rather go my way
That I hear your spirit say

Babe, won't you stay right here with me?
I know your burdens, I know all your needs
And when you feel you stand alone as you battle in the field
I will forever be your strength, forever be your shield
For the rest of your days, 'til we meet face to face

Day by day I seem to fear the fight
As I do battle with these thoughts in my head
Thinking of what it would be like
For just today to do all that I've often felt

Only one could love somebody with a heart so cold
So lost just like my own (but you keep on sayin')

Babe, won't you stay right here with me?
I know your burdens, I know all your needs
And when you feel you stand alone as you battle in the field
I will forever be your strength (I, I'll be your strength), forever be your shield (I'll be your shield)
For the rest of your days, 'til we meet face to face

Sometimes I feel you should just give up on me
'Cause I keep pushin' you to the limit
But you never ever let me go
And with that still small voice, I hear you say to me
Come home (come home), come home (come home)

Babe, won't you stay right here with me?
I know your burdens, I know all your needs
When you feel you stand alone as you battle in the field
I will forever be your strength (I, I'll be your strength), forever be your shield (I'll be your shield)
For the rest of your days, 'til we meet, we meet face to face

(If you let me, I will be your shelter)
(I will be your strength and shield)
(You can let me be there, I can be there)
('Til we're face to face)

If you let me be there, I can be there (if you let me, I will be your shelter)
I can be your strength and shield (I will be your strength and shield)
(You can let me be there, I can be there) yeah
('Til we're face to face)

If you let me I will be your shelter
I will be your strength and shield
