You found me by the way side
And pushed me out to sea
Now I'm pulling in the fish
But there's just no room for me

I have to choose

I'm jostling through the crowd
Inches from your robe
I want to just stay hidden
But I want to know you

I have to choose

You have opened your heart
To all these scars all these hours
In the shadows teaching me to shine.
You opened my heart
To all I am all I can be
And closed it to the life I've left behind
I'm ready to shine!
Ready to shine!

You left the bright side
And came down to earth
You came by my side
And say I am worthy

I have to choose

You took up my cross
And forgave their wrong
Now I'm at a loss
If by them you meant me all along

I have to choose

You have opened your heart
To all these scars all these hours
In the shadows teaching me to shine.
You opened my heart
To all I am all I can be
And closed it to the life I've left behind
I'm ready to shine!
Ready to shine!

You found me by the way side
And pushed me out to sea
