Caedmon's Call - Shifting Sand lyrics

Sometimes I believe all the lies So I can do the things I should despise And every day I am swayed By whatever is on my mind I hear it all depends on my faith So I'm feeling precarious The only problem I have with these mysteries Is they're so mysterious And like a consumer I've been thinking If I could just get a bit more More than my 15 minutes of faith, Then I'd be secure (Chorus) My faith is like shifting sand Changed by every wave My faith is like shifting sand So I stand on grace I've begged you for some proof For my Thomas eyes to see A slithering staff, a leperous hand And lions resting lazily A glimpse of your back-side glory And this soaked altar going ablaze But you know I've seen so much I explained it away Chorus Waters rose as my doubts reigned My sand-castle faith, it slipped away Found myself standing on your grace It'd been there all the time (Chorus repeated) Stand on grace
