I’ve been meaning to post this for a couple of weeks now. I’ve been listening to Bebo Norman’s Try CD and I don’t know why I never really noticed the lyrics to Disappear before, but they’re meaningful for me lately.

Disappear
by Bebo Norman

On a day like this
I want to crawl beneath a rock
A million miles from the world
The commotion that never seems to stop

And on a day like this
I want to run from the routine
Run away from the daily grind
That can suck the life right out of me

I only know of one place I can run to…

I want to hide in You
The way, the life, the truth
So I can disappear
And love is all there is to see
Coming out of me
And you become clear
As I disappear

I don’t want to care about earthly things
Be caught up in all the lies
That trick my eyes
They say it’s all about me

I’m so tired of it being about me

I want to hide in You
The way, the life, the truth
So I can disappear
And love is all there is to see
Coming out of me
And you become clear
As I disappear

I would rather be cast away
Separated from the human race
If I don’t bring you glory
If I don’t bring you glory
If I don’t bring you glory

The whole CD is great. I just ordered his newest CD and I’m looking forward to getting that soon.

[UPDATE]: I feel that I should clarify that it’s the sentiment of the chorus and the latter half that’s sticking with me more than the first two verses. I feel that for a while it’s been all about me and I know that it’s not all about me. I want to be a reflection of Him; to bring Him glory. I want to be a better reflection of His love. I want to disappear so that He’s more clear.
