King Of The World

Love ignored,
Is like love that's gone.
You think you can do without,
Are you really that strong?
You're a great big hunk of man,
Or a grown up girl.

Don't overlook the King of the world.
Left it here for all, the boy and the girl.
You know that His love is more precious than pearl.
Tell me what you want from the Lord.

Think you got it made,
You got all the cash.
Your in need of nothing.
Just hold on man.
You drop dead tonight.
Your money won't do.

Don't overlook the King of the world.
Left it here for all, the boy and the girl.
You know that His love is more precious than pearl.
Tell me what you want from the Lord.

Walk the walk,
You can talk the talk.
Can you walk the walk?
There's so little time.

Walk the walk,
You can talk the talk.
Can you walk the walk?
There's so little time
Just so little time
So little time

They've cheated and lied.
Men just don't care.
Every time you turn around,<
It's back to despair.
I got a lesson girl,
Unless you like the pain.

Don't overlook the King of the world.
Left it here for all, the boy and the girl.
You know that His love is more precious than pearl.
Tell me what you want from the Lord.

Walk the walk,
You can talk the talk.
Can you walk the walk?
There's so little time.

Walk the walk,
You can talk the talk.
Can you walk the walk?
There's so little time
Just so little time
So little time

Stand Up

Children playing in the grass
And those were the days.
Life is just so complicated
Seems to never go away.
Yes, He knows.
Yes, He knows.
Yes, God knows.

Go on and stand up, and be strong.
Life is almost over, it's not that long.
He's right there at the door, will we be at the gate?
Don't wait for another day, it's already late.
Yes, He knows.
Yes, He knows.
Yes, God knows.

Sitting home in darkness,
Staring out the door.
We all sometimes wonder,
Is this all my life is for?
Yes, He knows.
Yes, He knows.
Yes, God knows.

Go on and stand up, and be strong.
Life is almost over, it's not that long.
He's right there at the door, will we be at the gate?
Don't wait for another day, it's already late.
Yes, He knows.
Yes, He knows.
Yes, God knows.

We can live in the past.
It don't mean much to me.
There is something He wants from us.
There is more that we can be.
Yes, He knows.
Yes, He knows.
Yes, God knows.
Yes, God knows.

Every Drop Of Blood

Jesus, please don't leave me here
In a world so very cold
I look at all this life I've lead
And I feel so very old.

The time you took, the cross you bore
I understand it now
I have no chance to make it right
So forgiveness, I implore.

We put you there up on that cross
And left you in such pain.
I don't suppose it would change a thing
If we did it all again.
But with that chance to be born again
We live in spirit, too.
Did we forget, consider today.
Jesus did it all for you.

Every day I sit right here
Nothing seems to change
We've lost all strength, we have lost all love
Disconnection bells have rang.

The Lord of life has beckoned me
Who am I to run?
All I've taken from this earth
Will now return to dust.

We put you there up on that cross
And left you in such pain.
I don't suppose it would change a thing
If we did it all again.
But with that chance to be born again
We live in spirit, too.
Did we forget, consider today.

My Lord returns to me
The river flows into its sea.
He overcame where I could not
Man is not where we should be.

Listen up you destroyers,
Here is something left to say.
Turn your back at your own risk.
Weep for all you do.

Every little bit
Every little bit
Every drop of blood for you.
Covers all that we cannot
True life in what we do.

Every little bit
Every little bit
Every single lash was all for you.
He loves us all, is that love returned
'Cuz he believes in you.

Little

Coming out I wandered far, far from
the light of the shining star.
Waiting for the ends to meet,
sitting on my own judgment seat.
Never seemed to make much sense,
all the places that I had been.
My wisdom wasn't worth a cent,
till I found what God had spent.

How little did I know of you.
How little did I know the truth.
How little did I know of you.
How little did I know the truth.

How many came looking near,
only to walk away in fear.
Passing winds in dark they seek,
waiting for the sowers reap.
Destroying all that they can find,
truth is hidden from their minds.
There is no place to hide from them,
I turned and walked away.

How little did they know of you.
How little did they know the truth.

Coming out I wandered far, far from
the light of the shining star.
Waiting for the ends to meet,
sitting on my own judgment seat.
Never seemed to make much sense,
all the places that I had been.
My wisdom wasn't worth a cent,
till I found what God had spent.

How little did I know of you.
How little did they know the truth.

When we think we got it down,
we can hear the sound of the calling ground.
All our work it goes away,
like withered grass in winds away.
Destroying all that we can find,
truth is hidden from our minds.
There is no place to hide for me,
they turned and walked away.

How little did I know of you.
How little did I know the truth.
How little did I know of you.
How little did I know the truth.

The Return

Sun is dark, moon won't shine,
The gates are fully closed.
Seasons changed in earths full mouth,
This chapter has a close.
Look at all the things we built
With sweat and with our hands.
We hid our face but worshiped all,
As bosses, they demand.
Which side of the gates,
Were we on?

The Lord comes back in life,
And all the prophets, they stood right.
We had it all and cast them out.
But they stand right here in white.

All that's left is fear,
Can't turn around, our fathers were wrong
For we worshiped our careers.

Turning back, there's not much left,
The nightmare of this place.
The numbers we all took as right,
On our hands and on our face.
We thought they were all just kidding us
We had heard about those lies.
Maybe they did have a point
But now mankind is in Gods sights.
Nothing ever really sounded right.

The Lord comes back in life,
And all the prophets, they stood right.
We had it all and cast them out.
But they stand right here in white.

All that's left is fear,
Can't turn around, our fathers were wrong
For we worshiped our careers.

The day is now in night.
Choking all that's left of life.
We missed the signs
We missed the posts

The money was so right
Has left us now without our sight
Give it back, but
No place to go.

The blood is in our hands
We marched at evil mens command
Take it back, but
The gates are closed.

Sun is dark, moon won't shine,
The gates are fully closed.
Seasons changed in earths full mouth,
This chapter has a close.
Look at all the things we built
With sweat and with our hands.
We hid our face but worshipped all,
As bosses, they demand.
Which side of the gates,
Were we on?

The Lord comes back in life,
And all the prophets, they stood right.
We had it all and cast them out.
But they stand right here in white

All that's left is fear,
Can't turn around, our fathers were wrong.

The Lord comes back in life
And all the prophets they stood right
The tens of thousands standing proud
Dressed up all in white.

The earth is made in new
The bride his chosen few
Waiting there for you.
Oh, He's waiting there for you.

(Scripture - Revelations 9:2-6 KJV)

Blue Skies

Waking dream from fantasy.
Put it behind me.
Pace is set no longer high
Here beneath blue skies.

Fantasia it might have been.
Drop another start again.
Blind and yet to see.
You brought it all to me.

I can speak,
I can speak of what I've seen
And I don't mind
Falling behind these times.

Can you bring,
Can you bring your past to Him?
And is it all
Here beneath blue skies.

Hanging looks on a bedroom wall.
My insides rise and fall.
Sail is up and dark is here.
Us is what we fear.

Candlelight, an empty room.
Course is set to waning moon.
Time is right, where did it go.
It's all I've got to show.

I can speak,
I can speak of what I've seen
And I don't mind
Falling behind these times.

Can you bring,
Can you bring your past to Him?
And is it all
Here beneath blue skies?

See it.
For what it really
Is it.
Would you ever leave it,
For anyone to find?

See it.
For what it really
Is it.
Would you ever leave it,
For anyone to find?

Picture place, another time.
The ghost inside my life.
Always wants, and always dies.
Here beneath blue skies.

Fantasia it might have been.
Drop another start again.
Blind and yet to see.
It brought it all to me.

I can speak,
I can speak of what I've seen.
And I don't mind,
Falling behind these times.

Can you bring,
Can you bring your past to Him?
And is it all,
Here beneath blue skies?

See it.
For what it really
Is it
Would you ever leave it,
For another tortured soul?

I can speak,
I can speak of what I've seen.
And I don't mind,
Falling behind these times.

Can you bring,
Can you bring your past to Christ?
And is it all,
Here beneath blue skies?

Driving Up

Climbing up my way up North
The sun was in full day.
Gods rolling rivers, streams and lakes
All on life's display.

Don't find much hope in city life,
Way too much decay.
Fishing rod and fishing boat,
God's country on display.

You can't tell me what went wrong.
He created what's before you,
Reign forever long.
You just can't justify this wrong.
Take a look, before it's gone.

Driving out to see the leaves,
On a cold October day.
The colors of the universe,
Why do men like gray?

He put it all before me,
Like a teacher to his mark.
Breathe it deep, the cold pure air,
Gods country on display.

You can't tell me what went wrong.
He created what's before you,
Reign forever long.
You just can't justify this wrong.
Take a look, before it's gone.

Can we take it back?
Can we repent from this mistake?
Glory's in Gods nature,
And His natures on display.

Do you really want a world,
Where money is the way?
Glory's in Gods nature,
And His natures on display.

You can't tell me what went wrong.
He created what's before you,
Reign forever long.
You just can't justify this wrong.
Take a look, before it's gone.

Give It Up For The Lord

So you got the money,
Don't know what it's for
Totally worthless, don't you know, so
Give it up for the Lord.

Think you're really stylin'
Gucci, Klein and Porsche.
Won't all fit in that grave, so
Give it up for the Lord.

Lift Him up, He is right here.
Lift Him up, while He's near.

If all you got is silly,
Then silly for the Lord.
Get up now and clap those hands, and
Give it up for the Lord.

If sinning is your passion,
Idolatries at the door.
Go get saved by wood or brick, or
Give it up for the Lord.

Lift Him up, in song.
Lift Him up, it won't take long.

If your past is the biggest issue,
What are you waiting for?
Build a great big time machine, or
Give it up for the Lord.

Is everyone out to hurt you?
Pain's all life's for.
Get a hanky and cry it off and
Give it up for the Lord.

Lift Him up, He is right here.
Lift Him up, while He's near.

Lookin' for a lifestyle
Peace and love and more
I think Mars has some vacancies, so
Give it up for the Lord.

Computers have some knowledge,
But they have some bugs.
They'll iron it out in 10,000 years, so
Give it up for the Lord.

Lift Him up, in song.
Lift Him up, it won't take long.

If brains are overflowing,
But never reach Gods door.
Then it's worth as much as paper, so
Give it up for the Lord.

I think that Jesus loves you.
That's what He came here for.
He nailed your sin to that tree, and
Gave it up for the Lord.

He, gave it up, for the Lord.

Son Of Man

Son of Man.
Prince of Peace.
One name we share, one is for our ease.
Nailed into,
Wood and blood.
All we share is rising like the flood.

There is no way that I can see.
Fire for the sons of man is all that we should be.
Holding on to all that life is for.
Angels standing in the sun.
Fire and peace from the Chosen One.
The name we share, it wakes me up to run.

Son of Man.
Prince of Peace.
All that I am doesn't give me ease.
Given over,
Bound in chains.

Wake me up.
Take me home.
Emptiness, passing stares, the lies of men alone.
Nailed into,
Wood and blood.
All we share is rising in this flood.

There is no way that I can see.
Fire for the sons of man is all that we should be.
Holding on to all that life is for.
Angels standing in the sun.
Fire and peace from the Chosen One.
The name we share, it wakes me up to run.

There is no moral to all I'm trying to speak.
No easy way or path for all that we men seek.
I don't really care.
'Cuz I'm just looking for
Yes, I'm just looking for
Tell me, I'm looking for
Gods Truth
Please tell me, the Truth
Please tell me, the Truth
Please tell me, Gods Truth.

Over The Dead

Entwined like lovers, in a poster bed.
You promised me the stars,
to get inside my head.
One thing you forgot to do,
is tell me you were wrong.
The dead aren't really living,
and too many buy that song.

Over the dead, over the dead
Over the dead, over the dead

The Word is spoken, over the sea.
Reach across time, to set us free.
There's meaning in the path He tread.
There's something in the life He lead.

Taken by mere words,
then fastened to the mast.
Some will see the truth Christ bore,
some will help your plans.
It doesn't make a difference to you,
it's what bothers me the most.
Sanctioned blood by your own hand,
is your most vicious boast.

Over the dead, over the dead.
It's all that you got left right now,
so just leave us all alone.
Over the dead, over the dead.
There's power in the words of Christ,
so I'll raise my hands in hope.

Word is spoken, over the sea.
Reach across time, to set us free.
There's meaning in the path He tread.
There's something in the life He lead.

Speak to all like a gentleman,
inside black as night.
Dressed up in the finest clothes,
swallowing up the light.
CEO's speak in tongue,
think money gets it all?
I wondered aloud at this,
but the reward was just too small.

Over the dead, over the dead.
It's all that you got left right now,
so leave us all alone.
Over the dead, over the dead.
There's power in the words of Christ,
so I'll raise my hands in hope.

Word is spoken, over the sea.
Reach across time, to set us free.
There's meaning in the path He tread.
There's something in the life He lead.

Can't Hand Me That

The talk goes on all day.
Don't that tongue ever get in the way.
Mumble a few choice words.
It still doesn't make it go away.

No, you can't hand me that.
No, you can't hand me that.
Words all fall, like the drain of your brain.
No, you can't hand me that.

You say it's alright.
There's nothing over blue skies.
You ain't got a clue or idea as to why.
But if you said it, it must be right.

No, you can't hand me that.
No, you can't hand me that.
Words all fall, like the drain of your brain.
No, you can't hand me that.

Have you considered the truth?
Have you considered the end?

What will you do, what will you do then?

No, you can't hand me that.
No, you can't hand me that.
Words all fall, like the drain of your brain.
No, you can't hand me that.

Disconnect

Pouring
Down like rain as
The suns heat
Dries the tears down deep
That pour down
Tears like rain as
The words that
Sleep deep down inside my soul

Take it all
Take the pain down
Take the lies away
Take the hate inside
I see me
But there's no feeling
No love that
The world could know

Pouring
Down like rain as
The suns heat
Dries the tears down deep
That pour down
Tears like rain as
The words that
Sleep deep down inside.

My Lord
Are you listening?
Can you hear words
As they fall down to this
Ground that
I'm running from
I'm looking on
As I fall into that hole

Have it all, Lord
Make me over
There's nothing left for
Me to hide.
I feel you
I know you see me
Help me feel love
Take the hate inside.

Pouring
Down like rain as
The suns heat
Dries the tears down deep
That pour down
Tears like rain as
The words that
Sleep deep down inside me.

Pouring
Down like rain as
The suns heat
Dries the tears down deep
That pour down
Tears like rain as
The words that
Sleep deep inside
Deep inside
Deep inside this soul.

Somehow

I knew something was missing.
As I wrote out this song.
I asked the Lord to grant me grace.
Please tell me what was wrong.

My son, I know you love me,
And your blessings soon will flow.
But please tell the world I'm angry,
You've got to let them know.

Somehow - Someway
I have this overwhelming urgency,
something's not ok.
Somehow - Someday
If we face the future like the past,
we will all pass away.

The death and destruction,
You hear so much about.
I think I've finally had it,
And I'm about to call them out.

One more final warning,
won't do too much these days.
But since I really love them,
I had to find a way.

Somehow - Someway
I have this overwhelming urgency,
something's not ok.
Somehow - Someday
If we face the future like the past,
we will all pass away.

Hope in the world
Is there
Hope in this world?
Hope in the world
Is there
Hope in this world?

You can write this out my son,
On whatever you want.
Talk without repentance
Is more like dirt, than Salt.

So now the wicked,
seem to have their way.
But it, my son, has caught my eye.
I am about to make them pay.

Somehow - Someway
I have this overwhelming urgency,
something's not ok.
Somehow - Someday
If we face the future like the past,
we will all fade away.
