Your eyes search for me for so long i've wanted to come home held back by lies of serpents and tongues of brothers turning a child into an enemy turning open arms into closed fists i could see the reflection in the tears that made their way down Your face onto the ground i kneel upon they form a river that overtakes me compassion envelops me i forgive and release forgive release forgiven released
when you shut your eyes and fell asleep dark clouds descended on the souls of the ones who held you close to their hearts and the rain that came gently met your tears they became one and seeped into the earth i watched from a distance and... my heart broke open as if to tell them... the beauty of an embrace a place to lay down the pain where blood and fire bring rest and peace i sit away in a secret place the shadow of wings i think of you and my heart breaks open
in a time of quietness i reflect on childhood memories caught wisping through my mind falling leaves create the stage words spoken were not cherished on the last day of our friendship and those words were possibly the last what were your thoughts as a dreaming child i awaken to a nightmare after a gentle nudge i find out you're gone the machines that kept you alive were careless did you ask Him to forgive you before you passed on you slipped away into the ground.. you broke the vanity... you brought the silence ... (i hope you are with Jesus.)
my strength fades away slowly with the setting sun the night brought its darkness and its storms and the floods that came reflected a dull moon violent winds raged beneath the stars that didn't shine emptied of myself i fell to the ground slowly through the destruction came a single quiet voice and the breath of His words consumed the night and brought strength i have never felt on my own and He held me up until i could walk again and promised to stay by my side forever
my sight finally returns only to see my hands covered with the innocent blood of those i stand before as an example and i hold this ember in my heart it reminds me of who I was once. ember of Your faithfulness ember of Your still small voice ember of embracing arms ember of rebirth to You my King i offer up this ember for the wind of Your Spirit to consume consumed by fire to purge their blood from my hands
turned away by a misrepresentation stained glass and white washed tombs the hearts of those who spoke to you were never homes to the God they tried to show you they spoke out of prejudice and ritualism they themselves were lost angels fold their wings and weep along with us watching you shun Christ's sacrifice
my heart is deceived by my eyes my actions in the name of beauty i'm sickened and strangled by myself that i would allow an unyielded desire to lead me astray put to shame by my lack of trust i confess my faults with tears manifestations of Your grace fill me revelations of forgiveness wounds healed by wounds the Father's mercy peace beyond understanding love from You that i don't deserve i shut my eyes i still my feelings listening with closed eyes i rest in Your guidance trusting You sensing You i listen and hear...abide in me
let me not exist for a fair desire sweet and fresh are my expectations of this inner strength that yearns passionately for the endowment of the Father i sow in tears that later i shall reap in joy each drop that i sow will be a time of breaking come Holy Spirit empower your creation through times of breaking the planting of tears as i am broken your presence grows stronger and i feel You with me upholding me through it all
a ring of haze encircles the unshrouded truth within another seal is broken as the heavens prepare to break forth in fulfillment a blanket of deception is layered on sacred writings which contain the thoughts of the One who is Almighty a sword unsheathed is drawn bringing legions of demons to their knees by the knowledge of a covenant prepared before the earth itself still so many choose to warm themselves beneath deception as the end draws near and history closes i pray the winds and the rain of that which is latter will bring clarity and understanding of Your infallible Word let the lack of knowledge be lifted off Your people
All the dreams
You can't live without
All the love that you made
You can't live without
If you look at the grief in your heart
And the dreams that you had are all gone

You better stop it now
You just can't take it hard
You better stop it now
You just can't take it so hard, right now

All the praise
You can't live without
All the highs in the days
You can't live without
Well you look to the right and the one
Whos was saying goodbye is now gone

You've gotta stop it now
You just can't take it hard
You better stop it now
You just can't take it so hard, right now

All left behind
I'm not here to find and amaze you
All left my mind
I'm not here to try and appraise you now
I didn't wanna hold you up
You know I wanna hold you
But never wanna hold you up
I didn't wanna call

All the love
You can't live without
All above
You can't live without
Well you look to the right and the one
Who was saving you love for a song
Is telling you she's gone
Right now, oh now

You'd better stop it now
You just can't take it so hard, right now
You'd better stop it now
Or she's gone
Well she's gone
