Before I Die | Good Day To You! | Just the Wind |
Rambling lines rhyme in
space changing patterns, changing place until all we hear in our own mind is our own vision, our own lie
"But I only dwell in time you see,
"Well, have you yet begun to choose
"I only dwell in time you see,
"Then you must die before you die
"That you can take your girlish figure,
"For this is truth, and Jesus meant it, |
Jamin pushed his barefoot heels into his horse's side;
Bright blue feather
He met a jolly beggar who
So Jamin looked
And finding four
thinking, "I would rather
Then Jamin went
"Mother", he said,
"I know not what",
but God knows
"Good woman", said the youth,
please take them
So off the peasant pushed
and seeing a tumbled cart,
"Kind sir", the good youth
Please tell me where
Jamin followed all
and the man,
"I see in you a man of strength
take now these four and twenty pence, |
When you are walking along the way you hear a voice behind you say "This is the way, walk in it".
You turn your head,
It's just the wind,
It's just the wind; It's just the wind.
So you keep walking
There is a way
A voice cries behind you
Yes, you are walking
You turn your head,
It's just the wind,
It's just the wind;
It's just the wind,
It's just the wind; It's just the wind. |
Men Faint with Fear | New Hope Haven |
Men faint with fear in the midst of the land; the Day of the LORD is surely at hand.
Morality no longer
"Chastity," "prudence,"
We whore after sex;
We fail to repent
We call evil good
"I can remake the laws
"I can make untold prisons,
"I seduce all your youth
We think we're so holy,
We say we are Christian,
The power of the holy
So man faints with fear |
A haven in the wilderness I will give you in its time A place of peace, serenity, and justice most sublime
A haven where the springs flow
There's new
hope in the air
No longer do we say |
Not of this World | Precision | Start with Me |
My Kingdom is not of this world and my soldiers fight not in its war
for politics is the art of deception,
My Kingdom is not of this world
and is always consumed with its mammon
My Kingdom is not of this world
but I have left an example
that you are to love one another
and you are to lay down your lives
the seed that I planted in chaos,
of a glory beyond all your reason
Yes the Kingdom of God is within you
while the world about you is shadow, |
Precision like an engine that the master mechanic makes
Invention
Tension
Perfection |
As lovely as a babe in arms, you are radiant as the virgin bride, you are Patient since the dawn of time, so far Molding us to your will ... you are
You're holy; that's who you are
As lovely as a babe in arms, you are
You're holy; that's who you are When I
hear the wind blow through the trees
You're holy; that's who you are
Start with me ... my name is Jesus |
The Hidden Word | The Image of Grace |
Your word I have hid in my heart that I might not sin against you. Though old it was late I did start; your word I have hid in my heart. And though the enemy tries always to thwart, in his mazes of ways all untrue, your word I have hid in my heart that I might not sin against you. (From Psalm 119:11) |
Suddenly that day arrives, appointed in time the prophecy fulfilled of the seer's last sign that rights all the wrongs of failing mankind and moves that tall mountain we all tried to climb
That day will soon come though the road has
been long,
That day we'll awaken from death's final sting
For on that day we'll see as we're seen
Then we'll be fit to rule in His place |
