|
I was hollow and closed, in the morning I could not see. |
|
Your beloved goodness rained itself out on me. |
|
I raged against You like a river on a stone. |
|
But against that tidal wave, I am overthrown. |
|
Mercy, mercy, mercy. |
|
Well I was tossed in the wealthy [?] and leaning on myself. |
|
I played that religion card; I put Jesus on a shelf. |
|
Born into darkness I kept putting off the grave. |
|
Oh yeah, thinking my own goodness could get me through heaven's gates. |
|
I beg You to come and take away all my ancient fears. |
|
This bloodied history we all cling onto so dear. |
|
All around me was a blinded fantasy. the truth in the mirror of a foul vanity. |
|
You walk upon heaven, You walked upon the earth. |
|
You brought me my salvation; for me, a second birth. |
|
You took my broken cross up to cavalry. |
|
You sang my redemption song, well hang it on my tree. [?] |
