I Lost The World Lyrics

I was a young prince of a kingdom rich and bright

Wisdom, stature, and favor I had

But my own people they have cast me from their sight

Thrown down from heaven to a barren land

I lost the world, torn in two

And it called in question everything I knew

I lost the world but I found you

And remembered that's exactly what you do

In my abandonment I waited for your call

And rose at every sound I thought a ring

You took your time and when you take you take it all

You gave me thirst so I'd yearn for the spring

I lost the world I lost control

You emptied me so you could make me full

I lost the world and gained my soul

I was broken and you came to make me whole

They built a city with a tower to the skies

And I tried every door but all my keys were wrong

I was the lonely sheep they left for 99

It took so long to realize I don't belong, I don't belong

Down by the waters you said "let my people go"

But your people never wanted me to stay

I lost the world, I lost myself

I died and I descended into hell

I lost the world and those scales fell

You taught my soul to sing that it is well
