Dad's Shadow

umbra
I can’t escape Dad’s shadow
It follows me everywhere I...
Go! I wanted to be better
To straighten this crooked road
penumbra
But I can’t escape your shadow
Now my son is trapped in
mine. Flesh and heart have failed
I can't see the finish line
antumbra
So I hide myself in God
To You, darkness is day-
light. You won't leave nor forsake
You're the morning to this night
lux
Reveal what lies beneath
Mortify sin's whole not in
part. On the cross, it's done
You save my failing heart
