Uncharted Territory Lyrics by Don Moen
I find myself in uncharted territory
Never felt so lost never felt so lonely
Where are You Lord
I’m so afraid I can feel the fear inside me
Can’t control the chaos all around me
Where are You Lord
How can I sing the Lord’s song in a foreign land
(But) How can I forget
All You’ve done for me
Everything You’ve done Lord
Just to set me free
Teach me how to pray
Teach me how to praise
Even in the darkness
Teach me how to sing Your song
(Your song gonna sing Your song)
How can I sing when my heart is broken
When every prayer is just a token
Where are You Lord
Sometimes our pain can tell a tragic story
Still I will praise You and give You glory
Where are You Lord
Help me to sing the Lord’s song in this foreign land
(But) How can I forget
All You’ve done for me
You have been so faithful
Meeting every need
Teach me how to pray
Teach me how to praise
Even in the darkness
Teach me how to sing Your song
Your song gonna sing Your song
