I’d heard it all before but it took some time for me to realize it
That you’re the one who can’t make sense of the world no matter how you slice it
One and one makes two and two and one makes three, but not in your world…
You expect me to believe that all that lives and breathes just sprung up on its own?
You’re out of your mind!
Only the strong survive, there’s no use for you…lies
Keep the fit alive, to the rest it’s the noose for you
My neighbor has more worth than a pig or many birds, but not in your world…
You expect me to believe that he’s the same as a chimpanzee?
Climbing in the trees foraging for its food
That’s a joke and make believe
It doesn’t help that you don’t read
That the truth will set you free!
I’d heard it all before but it took some time for me to realize it
That you’re the one who can’t make sense of the world no matter how you slice it
Only the strong survive, there’s no use for you
Keep the fit alive, to the rest it’s the noose for you
You!
Can’t take any more lives, spread any more lies
You!
Your waltz is not the one to follow
Love your neighbor as yourself

Down from the mountain
your servant brought your law
Carrying the words you had spoken
that caused the radiance of his face
to shine upon them all
Afraid to gaze upon him
your servant veiled his face
until he went to meet with You again
He lay prostrate in awe
forty days and forty nights
Supplications for them all
were made upon the mountaintop
to heal them all from the mountain
Down from the mountain
your servant brought your law
Carrying the words you had spoken
You smashed the calf and made it fall
You made the people drink what was broken
The line was drawn and Moses called
Then those who’s hearts were faithful and broken
crossed the line with swords drawn
The Law was right
The Lord is right

Signs of Affliction
03:26

Yeah, If you really want to know
I had a heart full of addictions
And I don’t have to list them all
to understand the state of my affliction
in fools shoes and fixing to lose
my soul and my life in that direction
Do you really want to go
to the place of fire and brimstone?
I cried out to the risen Lord
Who took the addictions in my heart of stone
Confessed my sins to the risen Lord
He took my affliction and gave me a new heart of flesh
Yeah, If you really want to know
I had a heart full of afflictions
And I really didn’t know
or understand the depths of my addiction
I was a fool who knew the rules
but ignored the sign of my destruction, until
He gave me rest
Saved me from death
Made me new
Yeah, do you really want to know
what turned my heart from stone to a flesh one?
It was the Lord who taught me how
to understand the depths of His affection
I gave my heart to the risen Lord

Final Hymn
03:26
|

|
It feels safe until the wrath of God bursts the sky in flames
and the One who sits upon the Throne will stand on the final day
Those who mocked will have to give an answer
to the King of Glory when He comes home
Fear the day when the Lamb of God will open all the graves
When the angel with trumpet call will shout, “He’s on His way”
Those who mocked are headed for disaster
They’ll face the King of Glory when He comes home
Nowhere to run from the wrath that’s on it’s way
Nowhere to hide or escape on judgement day
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
Can’t escape or wait to talk to the Lord on some other day
Nowhere to run and hide
the wrath of God has come
the Lamb of God has come
