Tomorrow

wake me up when the day is over
for I cannot bear the noise
put me to sleep in silent whispers
inside of God's own voice
is this the feeling of redemption
or the shoulders of despair?
and since I fear tomorrow
please come and meet me there

angel of tomorrow
say a prayer tonight
when we find ourselves alone
afraid of being known
and holding on for life

like a dream that comes to haunt you
and you've nowhere left to hide
God collect the tears like water
and turn them into wine
after all the noise is gone
like prayers left to die
i scarce can take it in
so where do I begin
to trust You in my life?

angel of tomorrow
say a prayer tonight
when I find myself alone
afraid of being known
and holding on for life

it's a paralyzing fear
cold to the touch yet so sincere

angel of tomorrow
please say a prayer tonight
when we find ourselves alone
afraid of being known
and holding on for life...

Eric Peters fan? Sweet! He's from my neck of the woods. It's been a while since I've seen Eric, but the "musician's circle" is kind of small around here and he and I know a bunch of the same people. It was cool seeing his lyrics here!
