I took the deepest breath
Understood the Spirit’s rest
Filled with wonder
Serving a purpose
Beyond all the strife
To pray and to offer
Not for myself
But for you instead
For I know my place
And the Glory that waits
So be at peace
Believe in Jesus
Know that I took your place
In the war you do not see

The way the world teaches
Are alot like leeches
Sucking the blood of freedom
Ignoring the te deum
Until blessed salt is thrown
To all that we own

They never let me preach
So let me finally teach
It is you I beseech
Not found on the beach
But not out of reach

Found love in the darkest of places
I can see it in their faces
That thirsting and that longing
For simple smiles and even singing
For glorious praise
My cup be raised
So the ransom be paid
And love be made

I am in unfathomable pain
Such anguish over the loss
For something that hasn’t happened yet
So much pain I am numb

Pray then for deliverance
Better get off that fence
Fight for what is good and right
God is Good and Righteous

I branded myself as an outcast
The moment I said I am a prophet
Those whose ears were closed
Heard only what they wanted to hear
And heard not the earth shattering cry
For if they did they would have died
So they locked me up instead
After I wanted to prove to them
That I have power over life and death

It is dark down here
I have lost everything dear
I have nothing to fear
No matter what this year

You sing so beautifully
Your voice lifting spirits high
Your tune leads them along
Near idolatry the way they are
Fame is just people talking
But in this day and age it’s sharing for the record
And no one wants a prophet around

Your habits betray you
Ready to slay you
Right where you stand
Hanging by a strand

I watch it all slip away
Into the darkness and the fray
I hoped to have reached you
Your absence makes me blue

I am my own last resort
Sacrifices will cohort
No longer seeking you out
Only I am on my way out

The drone of your sound
Penetrates rock
Your love I found
Knock knock

You knocked me out
Now I shout
Watch out
Do not pout

As I watch this year come to an end
Cannot help but send
A message of tribulation
What comes next year is worse
Not something you want to hear

As I listen to your words
Your dream I head towards
Standing on the shores of forgiveness
I relent my anger and repent
It is God from whom I was sent

Oh how love has the freedom
In the Lord’s Kingdom
No deceit is found
Great joy is around
Praise in the Glory
The greatest Story
Emerged as victor
So now I have even more

A prayer from the heart
Is greater than a thousand from the start

Never ever could I ever
Withdraw from you forever
I love you too much to sever
Only wanted to be your lover

So it seems you misinterpret
And those things cause you to fret
When letting love wash over you
Is really a gift to you
