Disappear

Another example of what it is to die-to-self

On a day like this I want to crawl beneath a rock, 
A million miles from the world, the noise, the commotion 
That never seems to stop.

And on a day like this I want to run away from the routine,
Run away from the daily grind that can suck the life 
Right out of me.
I know of only one place I can run to… 

Chorus: 
I want to hide in You,
The Way, the Life, the Truth 
So I can disappear 
And love is all there is to see 
Coming out of me 
And You become clear 
As I disappear.

I don’t want to care about earthly things, 
Be caught up in all the lies that trick my eyes.
They say it’s all about me.
I’m so tired of it being about me… 

I would rather be cast away, 
Separated from the human race
If I don’t bring You glory, 
If I don’t bring You glory,
If I don’t bring You glory.

Chorus:
I want to hide in You,
The Way, the Life, the Truth
So I can disappear
And love is all there is to see
Coming out of me
And You become clear
As I disappear.

I sent an email to Bebo Norman asking permission to use these lyrics.  I didn't receive a response, but was added to his mailing list.  I then sent another email saying since they got my first email, evidenced by my being added to the list, I would take that as I have permission.  They didn't disagree.
