I stood up.  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 awhile 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 inside of me?  What does it take to make you see  The truth that I believe?  Is there a stone i've left unturned?  Is there a way i've not explored?  What does it take to shake your world?  To turn you to my lord?  Isaiah 53:12  Romans 8:28  Phillipians 4:4-7
