Oblivious to some things more in store And when I wept I knew not what or when or why what for Is this earth so great though it will not last Through crashing walls what stands is one good thing one way one chance And glimmer shining up and through the floor Will run and hide and fade just like He said it would before And now my head is really spinning fast I lived it all for me and now it simply moved right past Seeing, revealing More is here today Distance, no wisdom I pushed true life away "Wonderful" have I missed and I ignore And "terrible" was my word and was my life I became poor Self was in my hands and then it passed I'm left with picture perfect thought of what we think we have Imagine when I found I'm no savior Imagine when I knew and saw and fell before the Lord Myself none of any good my world crashed I lived it all for me and so it simply moved right past. |
I see the wealthy guy The world in his eyes He need not contain no pain or shame "And never will," I cry And I'm a dirty word You know I'm so absurd If I write things off as meaningless So I'm never heard Stare and no care into nowhere Round and round pounds the sound inside We never give it up Well, I can never live up and the box won't shut up Ground me out without a doubt We never give it up So I didn't need a book to get the certain look now Well, I just tune it in So this is what it means to live And I am really free Cause you and me are we and how We always fit right in So this is what it means to live And now I'm turning blue Without a thing to do Cause I'm wrapped, enthralled and my brain it stalls I can't think it thru Give me a second chance I'll learn your happy dance Cause I want to be in, forget the sin You'd think I'm in a trance Have you got the ears to hear And would you draw so near Cause it's got things to say and us to change You know you needn't fear So make your senses soft And never turn it off Just step inside and join the ride Here's our real God. |
What is special now? Well, I think that I am And I see that we all revolve around me And what I have in my hands is what I deserve There's no better way to be I say, so good to see me Now I feel I've given so many, so much Well here's my hands I want more, more, more Can you see that I am tired of being small? That's how only you should be I say, it's so good to see me What is up and up for you Does hold me down Stay awhile and see that my words gleam You know my mind is tired of the same old sounds That's how you wanted it to be I say, it's so good to see me. |
You said, "I love the world" "I love what you've done for me" you let my grip go And played the piano keys Couldn't even see Boxed in by a fantasy Scared of real love You're dead by your destiny Now shuffling around Shaking like a tambourine Confused like the tide By every star you've seen You took on the world It took you by surprise Like the day you fell And tears fell from my eyes Standing so tall You said, "Yes I'll salute you King" Lost in a forest In love with the greenery Apart from the crowd Never caught looking around for a scene Like loneliness you're sinking I cried of your sin And every other thing that held you down Down so far from me Take diamonds right now But I promise eternity |
Don't delay for a minute Cause if you do I'll know you're too far into it I mean the world around us The world around To keep your head above water To be humble amidst tears and laughter Sometimes we need to hide Sometimes cry Run away Far away To Yahweh He's my hideaway Star-studded-super-step You've turned around again Well I can feel it inside In his side And I'll tell you what He sees But first I must fall down on my own knees Let me hold your hand Holding our hands I need to lower my head I don't know if I can I've been so lost I don't know if I can I really have to fall I don't know if I can I'll say it again I don't know if I can And now we're losing time No, we can't say we never got a sign The love is all around us And it surrounds us. |
She might have been a princess She might've been here with us Or ride so high and far away Is she sleeping safely? Is her sky the same way? Does she know now my own fear? She might've seen the ocean If I'd had the notion To listen closely and obey I don't know love - do I? He might have had the stars in In his eyes and within He might've been my brother now Jesus will you hold him? Showing that you love him? Careless I have been with words He should not see the weather His joy should last forever Please give him reason to go on Well is my treasure ever Any good if I'll never Have the love to give away? We might've seen the ocean I know I've had the notion But I don't know love So what's to say? |
What kind of lies have led your despise Have stung your mindsize Tried and true no gain Yes it's true that things are upset Wrapped in substance Please call His name This sort of drug has got you thinking Well I think you're sinking And it's all the same It's simple now you think you need it Well I think it's sickness Please call His name Blue now thru and thru And I see you're gone Content in a reason bent Please don't take too long Another trip, another day lost And in whose cost? What do you claim? Well I believe in truthful glances and second chances Please call His name Feelings of joy, mindless toy Could you get by, and never get high Could you restrain, would you complain Feelings of joy, life unsoiled My Lord gives a new life Don't, don't take a long time Stop it's always me and me Like the other song He shines with grace and peace So don't take too long. |
Inside my selfish thinking In the middle I'm always sinking I am so far down I can't escape But all around the trees are falling Too much sunshine comes in And so I wait another day What is brightest in my life And what will I receive (tomorrow) If I'm Spirit filled will I be so content (so content with sorrow) Crucial is my mind on Christ So much He had to (He had to die) Buildings empty, standing tall Precious people breathe and fall What will you have when all is thru? Or maybe then I save the sea For other people after me Instead I am never living now Turn my eyes and to the stars Is there life so very far? Or better is there any very near It is this so understand me Christ gave so we can be free And will I wait another day Is this love? Is this life? This world's already gone This world needs the Son But we have so many things to do? And so enough of flower power Step on ways that make us sour We cannot wait another day. |
Well I'm a happy man So will I ever speak my mind But I know that we just haven't got the time To be awake, to be ashamed, will you? This world wants to drown me with the things it's thinking of So now I don't want to see or breathe in this place that cannot love I would rather lose my life than to ever, ever lose my mind But in this world, in this land It's our thoughts that we cannot find So you see me run away And you wonder why I am scared Well, I just can't help but think about the things of which we're not aware |
I've been standing here so long I don't know where I've been I've been looking around so long I don't know what I've seen Can I chase away the bluse? And will I understand this? I been here, there, everywhere How can I get back to His side? It's alright I/ve been turning around so long I don't know which way is right We've been tripping around so wrong I know we've lost our sight Can He chase away the blues? And will we understand that? We've been here, there, everywhere We got to get back to His side. |
What is it like when it's gone? All the day and the night and the song And what seems so real Is what keeps us from the dawn Truly I know it sometimes I see the reasons and signs That this world can only turn so many times In a simple way Though I be so wrong Though I turn away I know where I belong Feelings all around in me Do this, do that, and you'll see That it's hard to find Just what we need where we seek I'll say it again that I've tried To find the right ways on this ride Where we're upside down And we still will try to hide In a simple way Though I be so wrong Though I turn away I know where I belong And the Son will shine And the reign won't fall And I know inside How He loves us all Our hands will get so that they Can't pull us up all the day We need to find that now we have to say. |
