So you think you're wise to the ways of the world  Watching the madness with a cynical eye  Speaking your judgement with a trembling chin  And quietly closing the shade  You cannot hold back all the years of your pain  Do you wish you could leap from this runaway train  You've spoken His name called Him time and again  But your doubt always kept Him away    Minutes to hours and hours to days  I seems just as black as the night  There's only so much of this life you can take  With no hope of a rescue in sight  You feel you've lost salvation  I wish you knew the truth  That He's always waited right here by your side    He's the Light at the end of the tunnel  He's the Beacon that guides your way  You can't count on tomorrow to come  You need His love today!  His eyes have always been with you  You've never left His sight  Return to your Shepard  Let Him lead you out of the night    Why do you spend your life running away  Have you given Him reason to doubt  Why do you hide from the Light of the world  When you know He's the only way out  If you question the joy of surrender  You need look no further than me  Will you ever hear Him knocking on your door    You're not the type to be easily led  You've been around for so long so it's said  And though you have judged by the fact you have seen  The conlcusion you draw is a lie  The world keeps on turning around and around  Day becomes night becomes day  Sooner or later your house will come down  And your passion will whither away  But for the clock keeps ticking away  And you've never a guarantee  Until you open up and let Him in    Chorus    ...Return to your Shepard  It's gonna be alright    Chorus
