Behind
Words and music by Steve Maxon
Lyrics only

    D-D2-D             Cdim
     Behind... so far away
                G(fr3)
     As your life goes by,
             Gm                 D-D2-D
     A parade of yesterdays
            Cdim
     Go by the way
                            G(fr3)
     And when you reach their end,
     Gm
     Will the memories
     F#m(fr5) - Em (fr3) - F#m(fr5) - Em (fr3)
     Stay?

     D-D2-D                    Cdim
     Behind... your hidden walls
              G(fr3)
     Is there a yearning
                   Gm                    D-D2-D
     Can you feel the Father's call?
                 Cdim
     You needn't long for
            G(fr3)
     The things that pass
           Gm
     For He will give you
     F#m(fr5)
     All
               Em(fr3)    F#m(fr5)
     You'll ever need
                      Em(fr3)   F#m(fr5) - Em (fr3)
     He's faithful indeed

     D-D2-D          Cdim
     Behind... just let it go
                  G(fr3)
     Drop all distractions
                   Gm                       D-D2-D
     And the things you had to show
                   Cdim
     For your great effort
                      G(fr3)
     Give your talents to
             Gm
     The One who made them
     F#m(fr5)
     Flow
               Em(fr3)                  F#m(fr5)
     And as He sets your eyes
                    Em(fr3)                       F#m(fr5) 
     Move onward toward the prize
                 Em(fr3)
     Forgetting what lies
        D
     Behind

|D D2 D | Cdim | G(fr3) | Gm |
|F#m(fr5) | Em(fr3) |F#m(fr5) | Em(fr3) |

     D-D2-D             Cdim
     Behind... what will remain
                       G(fr3)
     On your foundation
                       Gm                     D-D2-D
     When the things of earth all fade
                 Cdim
     Into the grey
                       G(fr3)
     Will you be purified
           Gm
     Or burned up in the
     F#m(fr5)
     Flames?
           Em(fr3)           F#m(fr5)
     No earthly fame
                     Em(fr3)                  F#m(fr5)
     Can compare to His acclaim
                  Em(fr3)        F#m(fr5)  Em (fr3)
     When on that final day

     D-D2-D            Cdim
     Behind... us finally
                             G(fr3)
     We'll leave our troubles
                Gm             D-D2-D
     All our sin and misery
                  Cdim
     Forever blessing
                              G(fr3)
     With Christ our center
           Gm
     For all
             F#m(fr5)
     Eternity
                 Em(fr3)                    F#m(fr5)
     Now let our one prayer be
            Em(fr3)                    F#m(fr5)
     Lifted on bended knee
                Em(fr3)               F#m(fr5)  Em(fr3) 
     More of Him and less of me
                  F#m(fr5)  Em(fr3)                 F#m(fr5)  Em(fr3) 
     More of You...                         Less of me....
                   F#m(fr5)  Em(fr3) 
     More of You
                       D2-D
     and less of me
