A Cup of Trembling Lyrics

	Why
	Why do I search for the reasons
	Never content just to be
	Something is waiting and something is near
	Not found in battle and not found in love
	Of the earthly sort
	These won’t last
	Mere shadows of glory
	God
	Here stands a man who can claim such
	What sort of madness is this
	Here in Judea- a land full of prophets
	And quoters of scriptures
	A carpenter’s son has the gall to claim
	He is God
	The keeper of glory
	I’d hoped to find glory
	But never like this
	See, I thought I could win it
	Thought I could make for myself a crown
	I would find what I sought at the point of my spear
	Yet this man, he speaks so clearly
	Heaven, Heaven, and only there
	I’ll find what I need
	I’ll find what we’ve all lost
	That kingdom called glory
	No! Maybe I just need to grow up
	Starting to sound rather mad
	Melodramatic, a hopeless romantic
	Just like the rabble, the poor and the blind
	They follow him
	They can keep him
	This won’t last
	And this isn’t glory
	I’d hoped to find glory
	But never like this
	I thought I could win it
	What I yearn for
	Somehow earn more
	I’m a soldier and a Roman
	And a champion of the law
	Yet this man, he speaks so clearly
	Heaven, Heaven, there and only there

	Why
	Why do I search for the reasons
	Never content just to be

	Of the earthly sort
	These won' t last
	Mere shadows of glory
