I won't allow it.
I won't let it happen. This weakness will be strengthened. Take away this battle. Let our fire burn within. Purify. Purify. Don't release your hand from me. I must surrender, must lay it down. What's to gain from my selfishness? What will I promote, and what will be pushed back? My hope must rise, strength come forward. Linking my hand in yours. Let your chains uphold me. I won't break the bond. No more will I remain the same. My God has ever loved himself in me. I am convinced. I must stay. 02. In Loving Kindness
We are the new creation, the old has gone, the new has come.
Reconcild us to himself, through Christ Jeasus. We will be free, forever knowing what will become... of us. Thank you for the cross. Trusting in the balance has tilted me towards righteousness. Lifting my spirit once again, sinking not in my functioning. Striving to tell them the truth. Inhale, exhale this is over and over again. Looking for tomorrow forgetting about today. Striving to tell them the truth... Dying, dying, dying, dead. Through prayer and sacrifice into all the earth, with love and understanding. Now I look to importance, standing here steadfast, to renew the spirit within me. Do not cast me from your presence, or take your holy spirit from me. 03. Endure
I will endure.
It will endure in me. Until the end, forever. I will endure. If we continue in these ways, rebellion bends towards hatred. We rise up for our cause, and forsake the outsiders. Where is this love, this understanding? Who will stand? What will break down. if this uprise of self is left to reign? This age screams for a standard to uphold, and an answer for the questions. The wavering of beliefs lead to destruction. Nothing remains constant to its origin but the unchange faith of Christ. The one stable since creation. Thoughts have come, and theories have gone. Nothing has lasted through resistance. But who can deny, who can dispute the faith that's been throughout since the foundation of the beginning? It has always ben and always will be. Forever. It has been proven. It shall remain. This faith has stood the test. It persists through the conflict. Through the revolt against its ways, nothing has held true like this. No other has revealed such strength. The roots run deep within. Entangling around my rock. Never letting go of this truth. The power that has sustained me. I will endure in what I believe and what I believe wil endure in me... 04. Growing In Grace
He is God, he is God. he is God, he is God.
He is with us, he is God. he is with us, he is God. In His purpose I will stand. I've been renewed by the maker. In his purpose I will stand. I've been renewed by him alone. Been made by the maker. Been bought by the buyer. Broken by the breaker. I'am his. I'am his. In his purpose I will stand. I've been renewed by him alone. Made by the maker. Bought by the buyer. Broken by the breaker. I am his. I am his. In refuge and strength, Ever present help in trouble, without fear. As the nations uproar and the kingdoms fall. He lifts His voice-melting, He is with us. he is God. He is with us. he is God. He is with us. he is God. He is with us. he is God. Been made by the maker. Been bought by the buyer. Broken by the breaker. I'am his. I'am his. 05. Foresight
With open arms I'll be held down by the spirit of God.
I refuse to turn away. By the world and its lies. Everlasting words like water that fllows through my heart. As the wisdom runs deep within. Forseen throuh my savior. The completion has been done. With wisdom and truth inside. No reflections from the past will come, and there will be no misconception. That would turn my faith away when you are not with me. I will lift up my spirit to be with you. Life the endless maze will not be so narrow. Soon time will not have to wait. For soon I will go against what awaits me.... 06. Ps. 77
I cried out to God for help.
I cried out to God to hear me. When I was distressed, I sought the lord. At night I stretched out my hand, but saw no comfort. I remembered you God and I groaned; I mused and my spirit grew faint. You kept my eys from closing. I was too troubled to speak. I thought about the former days the years long ago. I remember my songs in the night. My heart mused and my spirit inquired.. Will the Lord reflect forever?. Will He never show his favor again. Has this unfailing love vanished forever. Has his promise failed for all time. Has God forgotten to be merciful. Has the anger withheld his compassion. Then I thought, to this I will appeal-the years of the right hand of the Most High. I will remember the deeds of the lord. Yes I remember your deedsof long ago. I will meditate on all your works, and consider all Your mighty deeds. Your ways oh God are holy. What God is so great as our God! 07. Exchange
Revelation, unknowing has been taken.
Why had I waited so long? Refrained for this love. Never open to the hope he has. How could reject this? He was calling my name. Searchin for me. I always turnd away. Not anting to believe I have a need for him. Feling this emptiness. Not knowing he could fill. Drowning in my efforts to find comfort. I searched and strived for the answer. But every step I fell and the earth crumbled underneath me. Now I found this rock.This stable place. The pain has gone away. I place my hope in no other. My heart, it cries, it toils inside me. Wantin all to have this life. Wanting all to know this love, but I'm reminded of my turning. Closing my eyes. Running the other way, but I've decided. I open my eyes to find more than I was looking for. My mind screams. Knowing this is for all, but not all I want I've found. Now I found this rock. This stable place. The pain has gone. I place in no other. 08. In These Times Of Silence
What else is there
After the slipping away When everything is silent And nothing is around, alone Looking deep inside Hearing the echo of my soul No one can know In there times of silence These times of separation I find there is a void that rises up A peace that brings my tears A comfort that no one else can offer So why do people turn away Why they look elsewhere And base there self on opinions When the truth is so evident That this God of Love is so constant When every thing is gone Destruction and storms My Jesus stands to help. 09. A Simple Reminder
Erase my thoughts
Cancel my subscription To the things of this world I open eyes of deliverance I'm color blind waiting to see Want to finally say no And walk away with a smile Time after time my call is game over But again and again this cancer spread Bleeding and spitting guilt and convictions As I lay in this pit, pit of defeat Pit of defeat Time after time my call is game over But again and again my cancer spread Bleeding and spitting guilt and convictions As I lay in this pit, pit of defeat Once again to try to beat it out Over and over again So worn To watch Him die and smile At His dismay His pain my deliverance My cleanliness a gift of freedom My walk purified My peace given by God Erase my thoughts Cancel my subscription To the things of this world I open eyes of deliverance I'm color blind. 10. All Else Failed
Why,
for what do we strive that will bring, bring us closer No human deed will show us approved For two thousand years we've chocked on our efforts Only to lay down and die Things change And things stay the same Through all these trials I cannot compose myself Till there is a time That no heaviness Fills my heart I cannot compose myself So in all this there must arise a plan A strategy to subdue the schemes For generation upon generation God retained a silence That shattered the hears of men And for a season, all else, all else failed Because I'm different There is no other name Given among men whereby They might be saved in all these years When men crawled the earth Choking on his tears No composure nor completion reigned No self-righteous cleansing Leaning on the strength of self or another man No human effort can bring holiness Or even the strength to stand There is no explanation for this reasoning The only thing in life that is constant is Jesus. |
