Blind towards the son
Only a filthy child, hiding in the dark
content with the dirt that covers my body
You offered warmth, the shelter i need
You offered life, but i turn away
I was covered in mud
my eyes blind towards the Son.
I couldn't understand the truth of your love
my eyes blind towards the Son
Arrogant and stubborn
In one ear and right out the other
I ran so far away from home
Searching for something I thought had meaning
I ran so far away from home
Ended up broken and bleeding
I was covered in mud
my eyes blind towards the son.
I couldn't understand the truth of your love
my eyes blind towards the son
How can I find my way back home
When I'm lost and on my own
When I'm crying all alone
Come back home
You are the only way back home

Laid With Death

Laid with death
It runs through my veins
Binds me with chains
It takes a hold of me
Only you know
The secrets I hold
Hid under lock and key
Can you hear me
I am screaming
I just want to be
Free from these vices
(That I've brought on myself)
(I need you God)
I am not the man you made me to be
(Oh father I'm sorry)
I am just a man who is in great need
(Dear God forgive me)
You know all my pain
And take away shame
Forgiveness for me
You wipe the slate clean
It's something I can't see
You take a hold
Call me your own
In love you died for me
Can you hear me
I am screaming
I just want to be
Free from these vices
(That I've brought on myself)
(I need you God)
Oh how long I laid with
death and the dead
And chasing the wind
These vices I fed
Were killing me
Oh my God you still
loved and endure
Through all of this mess
Beautiful mercy

Antidote
My throat Is an open grave
A mouth full of poison
With feet quick to shed blood
I do not know the way of peace
But surely I have found the way of death
Yet death hasn't come my way
You died for me
And I can't believe that you'd do this
For somebody like me
I know you're there and I know you hear me
I'm begging, I'm crying, I'm pleading, help me God
Take this soul, and break this heart of stone
You took, the cup of wrath and drank down every drop for me
A person who wanted nothing, nothing to do with you.
What love is this?
And I can't believe that you'd do this, for somebody like me
I can't believe that you'd do this, that you would die for me
Create in me, something clean
Create in me, something new
And I can't believe that you'd do this, for somebody like me
I can't believe that you'd do this, that for somebody like me
What love is this

Emerald Eyes
Twenty two years long
Another day and she was gone
The situation's wrong
This pain of loss goes on and on
It's so sad, the way it had to happen
To drift along without a fear of death
A life without peace
A hope that has deceased
I hate to say it but there's no "Rest In Peace"
But tomorrow's come, her time has passed
Who could know which day is their last
Twenty two years long
Another day and she was gone
The situation's wrong
This pain of loss goes on and on
Twenty two years pass
Time's too short, it doesn't last
It's just a passing by
Life leaves all to die
Emerald eyes, saw the world for what it was
Broken down, so unloving, full of hate
Yet none are too gone and none are too lost
Justice met mercy nailed to a cross
The death you deserve is swallowed up in love
Come to the brook of Living Water
Twenty two years long
Another day and she was gone
The situation's wrong
This pain of loss goes on and on
Twenty two years pass
Time's too short, it doesn't last
It's just a passing by
Life leaves all to die
Come to the brook of living water

Broken Mirror
God I hate feeling this way all the time
So low and empty wishing I was no longer alive
It would be so easy just to end it but I know You have better plans for me
My soul feels empty
Vacancy has left me starving
Aspirations fading
Locked inside the cage of my mind
Can't be complacent
Disappointed in what I've accomplished
Suicide seams satisfying
But I can't put my hope in dying
But I will stare at my ceiling for hours on end avoiding sleep because I’m scared of waking again. I fight back and forth in my mind struggling to understand why a vessel you decided to send reflects your joy like a cracked mirror. Oh God how long have I been here for? This dullness is taking its toll, God how can I feel whole with a handful of pills stuffed inside my soul. I feel like most moments are misused, and I’ve been drenched in issues that hold me further from you than I could ever fathom. I’ve dragged my feet and pressed on with open wrists and a flash flood pouring from my veins, or at least thats what's inside my brain. It's not a tame train of thought, but most other parts of me don’t fall in line either.
Oh spirit, so divine, (you are the only sovereign king of mine) fill the cracks in my broken mind. (I was lost, now I'm yours to find)
Oh spirit, so divine (so divine)
Fill the cracks in my broken mind
(Fill the cracks in my broken mind)
