(Verse 1)
O that my head were waters, Lord
And my eyes a fountain of tears
I would weep by day and weep by night
For how many have wandered from Your ways
I know, my Lord, man does not direct his own way
If only love could speak, if they could understand
The language of love — it has form, it has color
It has life, that so many fail to hold in their hands
(Chorus)
God did not make the world in black and white
He painted it in your favorite shade and light
He let you shape things out of love and gentleness
Not to walk lost in shadows, far from His face
He chose you, He formed you out of love alone
Thought of every detail before you were born
How could you forget the God who gave you breath?
How could you lose the beauty, the holiness, the faith?
(Verse 2)
How could you turn away from a God so wonderful?
So great, so majestic, so holy and true
He didn't call you to paths that lead away
But to walk close beside Him all your days
How could you trade what's genuine and pure?
To profane the One who is glorious and high?
He is so vast, so beautiful, so sublime
Still He waits for you with open arms, all the time
(Bridge)
Turn back… turn back now, while there still is time
Make your ways right, let your heart be refined
Let your will align with what is true above
And above all else — give your love its shine
(Outro)
Turn back… clear your paths, renew what you desire
And above all else… give your love its shine
Give your love its shine…
