Steady (Album Version)

Every day at my searching moments
I'm reminded that you're steady
In the valley wolves button up their sheepskins
but I know that you are steady
How we need something steady
how we need something pure
How we need something steady
Rivers raging rapid angry
I'm here sitting in this raft I'm steady
Fire bombs they blow up on either side
but through it all I hear you steady
How we need something steady
how we need something pure
How we need something steady
How we need something steady
how we need something pure
How we need something steady
Death may cast a shadow
Death may cast a shadow
Death may cast a shadow
Death my cast a shadow but a shadow cannot kill
Killers run and shudder they can't murder your good will
Death my cast a shadow but a shadow cannot kill
Killers run and shudder they can't murder your good will
Death my cast a shadow but a shadow cannot kill
Killers run and shudder they can't murder God's good will

One Thing

Into a place of knowing
I hope it's where I'm going
Leaning on that deeper truth I hope
This life it's ebb and flow
I'm thirty-three I know that
I may not know anything at all
One thing that I know
no unraveling no breaking apart
I'm held in your arms
no unraveling no breaking apart
One thing that I know
I am yours
With all this inner crying
I know this world is dying
To fill that missing space inside their souls
Self-love and self reliance
Is like a bandaid
On an amputated limb
I think we need more
One thing that I know
no unraveling no breaking apart
I'm held in your arms
no unraveling no breaking apart
One thing that I know
I am yours
Through all the wars
I am yours through all the wars
Inside my mind inside my heart
Inside my mind
All the wars
Inside my mind inside my heart
Inside my mind
all the wars all the wars

I worship at the altar
Of my ego and my intellect
Then I wave my fists at God and wonder
Why it is my life's a wreck
I mock the ones who seem so silly
Loyal to a simple kind of faith
Because I've found ways to complicate it
Force it to fit into my own way
Shame shame shame
We've washed our brains
Because we fear the names of
Dead men walking of dead men walking
I'm not like all these other people
I'm so special look at me unique
I don't follow any leader
Except for all those experts on tv
I water down the truth so I can brag
About my love so deep
I don't care if you all perish
As long as you keep loving me
Shame shame shame
We've washed our brains
Because we fear the names of
Dead men walking of dead men walking
Bold look at me so bold
Speaking all the words that I've been sold
Brave look at me so brave
Speaking like a parrot in a cage
Virtuous look at all my virtue
I don't know how I do all that I do
It's easy
It's easy
It's easy
It's easy
Just close your eyes and shut your ears
And shut your mouth out of fear
Don't ever stand on what you know
Keep shallow faith don't ever grow
Make foolish men into your gods
And just pretend you're not their pawn
It's easy it's easy
But we are not all asleep
We see the dead for what they are
We've put to bed the fear inside of dead men walking
Of dead men walking
Of dead men walking

Dead Church

I want another pillow
This one's old I think I'd like a king-size bed
The foxes have their holes
But where did the Son of Man lay his head
Father can you help me out
Have you looked into my bank account lately
Oh your eyes were on the widow with two mites
Her heart was full her hands empty
Oh
The throne the throne is God's alone
Scoot over Lord I need some time for me
In one breath I bless then boast
With strings attached
I'm making sure they see
Oh no oh no
Hurry dear I'm leaving now
Take up your cross and leave the rest behind you
I'm coming Lord I promise you
Just let me grab my favorite excuse
Oh no oh no
I'm knocking at your door again
Please open up and let me come inside
Hold on on second may be an hour
On second thought come back some other time
Oh no

Mumbling Shame
03:27

It's my profession he says
And my confession these days
It seems to be fading away
All the while stating I'm grey
But I hear his heart crying
Oh sad tale of art is dying
Paul's letter now lies burning
The cry of the wise is turning
To the mumbling shame of fools
To the mumbling shame of fools
To the mumbling shame of fools
To the mumbling shame of fools
Fools
Fools
Fools
Fools
It's my profession he says
And my confession these days

If you would only open your eyes
Then you would come to realize
Your doubts have made you paralyzed
The healer he is right outside
If you would only open your eyes
Then you would come to realize
Your doubts have made you paralyzed
The healer he is right outside
The door of your heart
Leave it cracked
Swing it open
If you could hear what has been said
Written out in black and red
But your doubts have made you paralyzed
The healer he is right outside
The door of your heart
Leave it cracked
Swing it open
Your doubts have made you paralyzed
The healer he is right outside

Carpentry of Men

Build this house not on the sand
I don't want the carpentry of men
Build this house on stony land
So I will last
Build this house not on the sand
I don't want the carpentry of men
In hindsight I can see clearly
In hindsight I can see clearly
In hindsight I can see clearly
In hindsight I can see clearly
Clearly
I don't want the carpentry of men
I don't want the carpentry of men
I don't want the carpentry of men
I don't want the carpentry of men
Of men
Of men
My sins are the ocean
The devil the wind
This world is a lighthouse
With no keeper within
I cannot see
My sins are the ocean
The devil the wind
This world is a lighthouse
With no keeper within
I cannot see I cannot see
My sins are the ocean
The devil the wind
This world is a lighthouse
With no keeper within
I cannot see

I Know You Know
04:16

Wouldn't it be a good thing
To let this all go
But I know you know
We both already know
That the grip of the past
Is held on by a vice
And the vices themselves
Are tightened with a bolt
I need new eyes I need new eyes
Or I could just put down the kaleidoscope
I need this storm to stop and leave
Or I could come into the shelter of your wings
Intruding thoughts
Break the thinker down
But I know you know
We both already know
That the mind and heart
Are miles away
But a sanctified spirit
Is a start
I need new eyes I need new eyes
Or I could just put down the kaleidoscope
I need this storm to stop and leave
Or I could come into the shelter of your wings
I know you know we both already know
That there's only one way
One way through the door
I know you know we both already know
That there's only one way
One way through the door
There's only one way
One way through the door
There's only one way
One way through the door

Inheritance
04:35
|

|
How many breaths and moments wasted
While I sit here wasted on all the things
That stumble up my feet
Look how the wave it rises
Collapsing on the sand
It's crushing the castles
I've spend a lifetime
Building on my own
And when the moment passes
And the shadow is creeping by
I hold on to truth by a strand of the rope
That is anchored to my soul
I have I have an intercessor
I have an inheritance in you
You
When I'm treading in confusion
And the flame dwindles to a spark
And I run from these prisons
That are held in the corners
Of the rooms inside my heart
When every friend and partner
Has washed their hands in the dirt
And the loneliness chokes me
Provokes me
Until I remember the words he spoke
I have I have an intercessor
I have an inheritance in you
You
I'm clinging to this promise
Like a dancer to a song
I remember these days are as moments
And from death to life I've come

Echoes
03:33

Tear up your banners
And your paper crowns
You chose a party
Of jesters and clowns
And shut out the king
And spit on the ground
Where he once stood among you
Now you just hear the sound
Of
Echoes and echoes
Of manmade song
And the clanging of symbols
And rambling tongues
Echoes
Echoes
Echoes
Cast of obsession
With all earthly prize
Trade pomp for sackcloth
Be repulsed by the lies
Of
Echoes and echoes
Of manmade song
And the clanging of symbols
And rambling tongues
Echoes
Echoes
Echoes
Weep like you used to
Be compelled to heed to
Echoes and echoes of beautiful songs
Echoes and echoes of heavenly tongues
Echoes and echoes and echoes
Of your first love
Echoes and echoes and echoes
Of your first love
