Aerial - Connected (Single Version) Lyrics

Had a mask held up to judging eyes
Displayed a life not like mine
Love came and looked behind
And You want the real me

Jesus, saviour You're all that I need
My light in the darkness, light in the darkness
Your love surrounds me it's all I can see
This freedom from what's holding me

I want to follow You
Oh, leaving the world behind
My Father's light for all to see
Oh, keep me connected to
To Your love forever

In a sea of filtered pictures
Your truth cut filtered fiction
Found Your peace in the outburst
Of sound and distraction

Jesus, saviour You're all that I need
My light in the darkness, light in the darkness
Your love surrounds me it's all I can see
This freedom from what's holding me

I want to follow You
Oh, leaving the world behind
My Father's light for all to see
Oh, keep me connected to
To Your love forever

Oh, Now through my faith in You
Swept in Your current you set my path
Oh, keeps me connected to
To Your love forever

Adrenaline when the bubble lights up
Trouble, when the lies corrupt
A broken web so full of empty empathy
Hashtag bless up!

Posting food I eat and people I meet
If it's all part of the mask I've got to ask myself - is it real?
What am I doing here?
Living for the anti-social media?

When I compare the life shared
It's unfair, I feel I'm nowhere
My value in a faceless account
To who and what do I amount to?

But this is what I'll do
Represent my true self, and Christ my identity
No more insecurity just pure authenticity
And love You showed You have for me

This is not a static affair
But a lifelong endeavour to show that I care
If all of this is the life I pursue
I've gotta be tuned up, switched on, plugged in to You, yeah!

I want to follow You
Oh, leaving the world behind
My Father's light for all to see
Oh, keep me connected to
To Your love forever

Oh, Now through my faith in You
Swept in Your current you set my path
Oh, keeps me connected to
To Your love forever
