Leaving My Comfort Zone

I live in a small box
Holed up just like a fox
Whenever I fear
That danger is near
To it I flee
Fast as can be
   ---
It's my personal space
So don't get in my face
Just leave me alone
In my comfort zone
Here I will stay
And spend each day
   ---
If I don't want to do
What You're telling me to
Your voice I'll ignore
And walk out the door
Leaving behind
Mercy so kind
   ---
You sent Your Son to die
My sinful soul to buy
But I tried to hide
And be my own guide
It didn't work
I'm at a fork
   ---
Will I choose to follow
Through joy and through sorrow
Everything You say
Or go my own way
Show me the light
That shines so bright
   ---
In it I will walk
And with You I'll talk
Forgive me of wrong
And please make me strong
My life I'll give
To truly live
   ---
I left my comfort zone
When my defense was blown
Now that I'm free
I cannot see
How I could stay
Boxed up all day
   ---
Of course sometimes it's hard
Not to send You a card
Saying I've gone back
For courage I lack
To keep the fight
All through the night
   ---
Help me to do my best
Through every single test
Give me a new start
And show me Your heart
To reach the lost
At any cost
