Behind
Words and music by Steve Maxon
With chords

VERSE ONE:

     Behind... so far away
     As your life goes by,
     A parade of yesterdays
     Go by the way
     And when you reach their end,
     Will the memories
     Stay?

VERSE TWO:

     Behind... your hidden walls
     Is there a yearning
     Can you feel the Father's call?
     You needn't long for
     The things that pass
     For He will give you
     All
     You'll ever need
     He's faithful indeed

VERSE THREE:

     Behind... just let it go
     Drop all distractions
     And those things you had to show
     For your great effort
     Give your talents to
     The One who made them
     Flow
     And as He sets your eyes
     Move onward toward the prize
     Forgetting what lies
     Behind

GUITAR BREAK

VERSE FOUR:

     Behind... what will remain
     On your foundation
     When the things of earth all fade
     Into the grey
     Will you be purified
     Or burned up in the
     Flames?
     No earthly fame
     Can compare to His acclaim
     When on that final day

VERSE FIVE:

     Behind... us finally
     We'll leave our troubles
     All our sin and misery
     Forever blessing
     With Christ our center
     For all
     Eternity
     Now let our one prayer be
     Lifted on bended knee
     More of Him and less of me

     More of You... less of me
     More of You
     and less of me
