Once again to strive, to beat it out
Over and over again.
So worn, worked over
With the intention to kill.
To watch him die and smile
At his destiny
His pain,
My deliverance.
My cleanliness a gift of freedom.
My walk purified.
My peace given by God.
What else is there
After slipping away.
When every thing is silent
And nothing else is around?
Alone.
Looking deep inside.
Hearing the echo of my soul,
No one can know.
In these times of silence,
These times of seperation,
I find there is a void that rises up,
A peace that bridges my tears,
A comfort that no one else can offer.
So why do people run away?
Why do the look elsewhere and base
Their self on opinions
When the truth is so evident that this
God of love is so constant?
Destruction and storms.
My Jesus stands to help.

Put your coal to my trembling lips.
Voice fills void with your breath.
Crescent tears from the relief You bring.
Undone in You. I love You.
Broken teeth of my frustration.
Your glory it surrounds me.
Sing praises to God, sing praises.
Blanket my mind with Your wisdom and insight.
Hand molds the mud of my heart.
Joy of Your strength
Overwhelms my praise.
Quickened in You.
I praise you.
Vibrant peace envelopes my lack.
Your glory it surrounds me.
Sing praises to God.
Sing praises.

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.

I will lift you up.
I will praise your awesome name,
Praise your name for what it's worth
And nothing less.
Perfect in all things,
Most high God.
Commend to praise.
To adore.
To glory.
In something so still.

Lies, depreciation of self.
Moral demise.
The corporate machine of america.
"In God We Trust"
Statement of political banter.
Plastic words for a plastic nation.
Bred to live the american dream.
Elderly parents in institutions.
Billions of dollars for the promotion of
Cutting edge abortionary practices.
Prayer in school
Has been replaced with condoms.
The value of quality family time
Has regressed
To television's filth and sexual innuendo.

Repressed.
Our forefathers established this nation,
Under the grace of God.
In all his provisions.
Why we are so richly blessed.
Our Father,
Deliver us

We are a new creation, the old has gone, the new has come.
Reconcilde us to Himself, through christ jesus.
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.
Inhale, exhale this over and over again.
Looking for tomorrow forgetting about today.
Dying, dying.
Through prayer and sacrifice into all the earth,
with love and understanding.
Now I look to importance, standing here steadfast,
to renew the? or your? spirit within me.
Do not cast me from Your presence,
or take your holy spirit from me.

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?
Looking forward, for a standard to uphold.
An answer to the questions.
The wavering of beliefs lead to destruction.
Nothing remains constant to its origin.
But the unchanging 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 foudation of the beginning?
It has always been and will always be.
Forever.
It has been proven. it shall remain.
This faith has stood the test.
It persists through 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 it will endure in me...

No eyes have seen.
No ears have heard.
No mind has perceived
What God has prepared for those that love Him.
Multitudes behold His glory
And give praises for what He has done.
In the time of need the children cry for help.
Many searching for a void to be filled,
While in stride they fall to their face in
Tears or laughter
After the release of His abundance.
Has His unfailing love vanished forever?
Has His promise failed for all time?
Has God forgotten to be merciful?
Has the anger withheld His compassion?
Jesus, my Lord and Savior,
Though my mind wonders of what i
Have not seen, heard, or conceived,
I will turn my focus to You.

I won't allow it.
I won't let it happen.
This weakness will be strengthened.
Take away this battle.
Let Your fire burn within.
Purify.
Purify.
Don't release Your hand from me.
I must surrender, must lay it down.
Now 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,
No more will i break this bond, no more will i remain the same
Let Your fire burn within.
Purify.
Purify.
Don't release Your hand from me.
I must surrender, must lay it down, dont release Your hand from me.
My God has ever loved himself in me.
I am convinced.
I must stay.

There is no other way
To explain for what he has done.
He came to me in such a holy way,
Such a way that i would die for it.
It is more than just a belief,
He lives in my heart.
How else can i explain it to you...
Jesus Christ.
