Guardian - What Does It Take? lyrics

rate me

I stood, you stayed in your chair

You didn't get it, you even looked put out

But I had no doubt

You'd see the change and someday do the same

That was quite a while ago

The days are getting shorter

They're expecting record lows

If you could hear me pray tonight

Would you be angry or surprised

To hear your name announced

Followed by a pause or even tears

Like I've done for all these years

The days are getting shorter

I suspect it's gonna snow

What does it take to make you see

The love inside of me?

What does it take to make you see

The truth that I believe?

What does it take to make you see

The pain it's causing me?

Why can't you see?

The days are getting shorter

But I won't surrender hope

What does it take to make you see

The love I have in me

What does it take to make you see

The truth that I believe

Is there stone I've left unturned?

Is there some way I've not explored?

What does it take to shake your world?

To turn you to my Lord?
