In Not Of - Avalon
I hide me far away from trouble
The world outside me
Grows darker by the day
So I promise to stay here
Close beside You
Surely God would want
His children safe
Then in reading
How my eyes were opened
I find that He is leading us
Out into the world
Into the middle of
Fallen saints and sinners
Where a little grace is needed most
Come take the light to darker parts
Share His truth with hardened hearts
We are not like the world
But we can love it
Come bring the hope
To hopeless men
Until the lost are found in Him
He came to save
The world so let us be
In it not of it wait a minute
If we say we love them
Why are we not in it
Why we run and hide
Entertain a stranger
Maybe entertain an angel
The danger is
If our worlds don't collide
Come take the light to darker parts
Share His truth with hardened hearts
We are not like the world
But we can love it
Come bring the hope
To hopeless men
Until the lost are found in Him
He came to save
The world so let us be
In it not of it
We've cursed the darkness far too long
We need to hold the candle high
We have to go and right the wrongs
We need to touch the world with love
Wait a minute
If we say we love them
Why are we not in it
Why are we not in it
Come take the light to darker parts
Share His truth with hardened hearts
We are not like the world
But we can love it
Come bring the hope
To hopeless men
Until the lost are found in Him
He came to save the world so let us be
Come take the light to darker parts
Share His truth with hardened hearts
We are not like the world
But we can love it
Come bring the hope to
Hopeless men
Until the lost are found in Him
He came to save the world so let us be
In it not of it
Wait a minute
If we say we love them
Why are we not in it
