Where the body is the eagles will gather Lift me up and give me your strength To fly across the great divide The promised land is just over on the other side I ain't coming down Once there was a promise, now there is hope Restore the righteous thirst of my soul A river ran which touched both sides Brought healing and restored from the ground to the sky I mounted wings from the bright morning star Let the wind lift me from my feet No resistance, nothing clouding my eye No greater feeling than the freedom to fly look down in the valley below With Your word be justified I see a place where it never rains The old footprints still remain | ||
Why Won't He Break |
||
|
Indulging in the calamities Nun's faces down in the mud near the ridge Are their backs as strong as their faith? The soldiers march on a human bridge Gorge with lust until they're fat with pride Elevate through the darkness out of the mind Bruise the back with your sharp tongue Push down on his head and crush his lungs Laugh out loud 'til he goes deaf Tear at the heart within his chest His rob of flesh he won't deny Use ignorance to crush the apple of his eye Part the garments, smell the clothes The scent of death lingers in your nose The anger is ripe until the veins explode Hold him down, lay on the stone | ||

If I Told You It Was The End Of The World |
||
|
God's truth doesn't leave me dry I put it right in your face You push it away for concept Then gather what remains If I told you it was the end of the world Would you change your ways? When the sun is gone day is done You're pasted in a book of despondency Hopelessness will digest your will to live Within your mind of despair. Where do you think you're going? Spinning on this little ball If this footstool is your heaven Better hope this rock don't fall | ||
|
I Found God |
||
|
I want peace in my life But there's always a sword The child in me Has become a man of war It's not flesh and blood It's forces unseen I'm carried to higher places Than I've ever been I will not fear What man can do Survival is a painful toil Give me strength to see it through I found God I want you to know I found God Where He leads, I will follow What He pours, I will swallow When He twists, I will bend All my trust in Him My tears have been my meat Deep calls unto the deep Fill my wanting mouth With good things renewed In the Garden of Indecision I have no apprehension I am nothing without You | ||

Closer To The Center Of The Earth |
||
|
The city of the dead is full of exhibitionists Dancing in the streets in their bones The hounds have the scent and they're on the trail Chase them into the cave where darkness dwells If my sin remains I have chosen my god Choose this day who you will serve As for me and my house We will serve the Lord From high lofty window tops you see Peering through the oil and scum Praying the door is locked They see the chase below through the avenue And you think those bones look like you The dead are all around in a state of decay And you are safe in a secret place Not of things you've earned or deserve But you have been called out of this world They're walking closer to the center of the earth All along they think they're exploring the universe They'll never prove that God doesn't exist 'Cause God took away all their evidence | ||

Tomorrow Makes No Sense |
||
|
I didn't choose this face Or this shell of skin I'm trapped in You're not worthy to loose my shoes You don't know where they've been I am my own enemy I will lie to myself I will talk to God But He won't talk to me I want no sin, I want no fear No sting of conscience, no care of death I want peace, not as the world gives Tomorrow makes no sense Only Jesus sees my heart My hope is that He knows my mind He will bring me out of this If I can scratch the crust from my eyes Inflict my own wounds Torture my own soul I choose to be the beggar Break the bonds of my yoke | ||

Day By Day |
||
|
I'm sick; I've tried not to show it I pray to God that no one has noticed But I grow weaker day by day My face is pale my hair turns gray It's hard to find the joy I once knew What has crawled into my bones? Made me brittle, made me old All of my dreams are about God When I dream about God When I dream its about God Confusion is my enemy Restore my soul of faith from reasoning Jesus save me from obscurity From the hour, the moment of grief But I grow weaker day by day My face is pale my hair turns gray Hard to imagine the boy I once knew | ||

Spirit |
||
|
I don't like what I hear That you're going to be leaving That you are going away Don't leave me comfortless If you save your life You will lose it Lose your life And find it (NEVER BE ASHAMED) Send back Your spirit To speak of You A new peace the world won't find A New Hope of love in time Left us Your peace We will abide in You The world will hate us 'Cause it hated You What will we do? Once You have gone We will miss You Where will You go? Gain the whole world And lose your soul Deny yourself And never be ashamed | ||

It's Only When I'm Left Alone |
||
|
Like the virus in my veins A broken window pane Jaws are locked into place Mingled cup thrown in my face I live in a house of clay Violated and dismayed I don't want to be a dream In somebody else's sleep It is only when I'm left alone That I pervert what is sown Blood and skin beneath my nails Reflects the emptiness of hell Then I squirm in my bed Pull the sheets around my head Soaking wet in a pool of sweat Pray for me, I'm not dead Take me out with the garbage And don't you compromise 'Cause that's all we really are Until we confess the lie | ||
|
Under The Blood |
||
|
Contradiction is the word which best suits this life A life of right and wrong, where wrong is twisted into right (Romans 1:18) The heart is exploding and the mind is racing (James 4:14) And we find ourselves running out of human breath (Proverbs 10:27; Isaiah 1:5) The stale life of routine wavers and stagnates And we experiment and toil in the fertile ground The answers are seldom given to unpopular questions Justify our hearts by what we selfishly hope to achieve (Job 9:20) I will live my life Under the blood (Exodus 33:22; 12:7; 1 Peter 1:2) All signs point deliberately the other way (Ephesians 4:14; Matthew 7:13) The road is slow and misery will be our company (Ecclesiastes 8:6) For to find true peace in this life we must forsake All reason and conscience and cleave to God's faith Peace comes from above (John 14:27) I have found no other If we remove ourselves from that hope (Galatians 1:16) Can love truly prevail? | ||

God's Human Oddities |
||
|
It's obvious what the world wants To wipe away God's fingerprints in all his intellect To know divine authority exist No accountability or reason to repent Man is not thankful in their futility They imagine themselves to be wise Their foolish hearts are full of darkness They don't see the power of the cross is life God's Human Oddities Live for the flesh embraced until the end Mortify the deed of the flesh (die in the end) Why do you deny the existence of love? Say no one looks down (on you) from above To be free of God is to not be free at all It means having no one to hear you when you call | ||

Die A Little Bit Every Day |
||
|
The devil has ears but he can't hear Except what you tell him from a heart of fear And now you spit out words just to see Where they splatter upon me Die a little bit Die a little bit every day Through painful toil of absolution Swimming up from uneasy dreams On a continent adrift from its morals You find yourself a desperate man Jesus based in solidity I'm balanced to conceive When things are revealed to me I move past perplexity Locusts came early from the west To test his resolve Only difference between war and peace Is where we place our bombs | ||

Restore Me |

Restore me Preserve me Replace my carnal mind I'm a sinner with imperfections Reveal my soul Give me answers to my questions | ||
