lyrics

The world may deny
Your choice to believe
The love of the one who rather choose to bleed
The world may deny
Your choice to believe
The love of the one who rather choose to bleed
Than loosing one of the flock
Crying out for a savior
Than loosing one of the flock
Crying out
Crying out for mercy
But This world is not listening to understand it will listen to reply

And you can kill yourself – but that doesn ’t mean you have to stop living
I had an old self that I killed
So start believing
If they can not see the wrongs in themselves, they will never see the right in you
So stop looking for happiness in the same place you found pain

What peacefull hours I once enjoyed
How sweet their memory still
But they left an aching void
The world can never fill

Where is the blessing I knew,
when I first saw the lord
Where is the soul refreshing view
Where is the soul refreshing view
Of Jesus and his word

The dearest idol I have known
Whatever that idol be
Help me to tear it from thy throne
and to worship only you
tear it from thy throne
Help me to tear me from my throne

Return, o holy Dove, return
Sweet messenger of rest
I hate the sins that made you mourn
And drove you from my chest
So shall my walk be close with you
Calm and serene my frame
So purer light shall mark the road

That leads me to the lamb
