So I'm at this wheel
It's 3 a.m.
Waiting for the caffeine to come around
Life rears its ugly head again
They say, "Your radio's cool, and retail's way down"
And I'd like to say I'm faithful to the task at hand
Speaking Gospel to a handful and others with their list of demands

It's cold this year, and I'm late on my dues
It's cold in here
Ah, but that's nothing new
My heart's electric with Your love again
So it's on to Bethlehem

You might surmise that I ran there, but I really only crept
Lead me to the place where love runs wild and then it dogs your every step
You know how fickle my heart is and prone to wander, my Lord
Yeah, we talk, but it's at arm's length
Always got one eye on the door

God wraps Himself up in human skin for those who want to touch
And God let them drive the nails in for those of us who know way too much
And You come bearing all our burdens and take Your lovers for a ride
We stayed holed up in our cages fashioned by our own design

So tell me, what is your secret?
What's on your blister soul?
What is that one little secret?
You know, the one that has taken its toll
'Cos Daddy's banging on your gate again
Yeah, He won't leave you alone
Got a whole lot of dry, warm rooms in the finest of homes
