Why do we bury treasure?
Why do we stow it away?
Why do we dim the lights down low
instead of letting it glow?
And we say we trust and we say we have faith
We say âWeâll never fall awayâ
And then we find ourselves in a constant rain
No shelter from the fray
But we donât have to sit ashore and watch the ocean
We have the power, we can overcome the waves
We donât have to fear and always run for cover
We have a love like no other
But we all fall short of the glory of the Lord
And if we stand on the fence, itâs not a life we can afford
No better place to be than underneath His wings
And the love we crave is the love that He brings
A far greater love than anything we can conceive
And I pray that we will be strong enough
when the walls start caving in all around us
And I pray that when the freeze sets in,
that I wonât melt down
Then the current always tries to pull us under
And then our weakness then becomes our strength
We donât have to fear and always run for cover
We have a love like no other
But we all fall short of the glory of the Lord
And if we stand on the fence, itâs not a life we can afford
No better place to be than underneath His wings
And the love we crave is the love that He brings
A far greater love than anything we can conceive
Not a cloud up in the sky, I can see so far and wide
Itâs always spring time
Thereâs lots of pretty sounds coming from the merry-go-round
Itâs pure elation
People smiling everywhere, theyâre even flying through the air
Itâs surely Heaven
But we all fall short of the glory of the Lord
And if we stand on the fence, itâs not a life we can afford
No better place to be than underneath His wings
And the love we crave is the love that He brings
A far greater love than anything we can conceive
