Don't stop your crying on my account
A frightening lion, no doubt
He's not safe, no he's not safe
Are you tempted now to run away?
The King above all Kings is coming down
But He won't say the words you wish that he would
he don't do the deeds you know that He could
He won't think the thoughts you think He should
But He is good,
He is good
I know you're thirsty,
the water is free But I should warn you,
it costs everything
He's not fair, no He's not fair
When He fixes what's beyond repair
And graces everyone that don't deserve
No one knows Him whom eyes never seen
I don't know Him
but He knows me
Lay down your layers, shed off your skin
But without His incision,
you can't enter in
He cuts deep when the risk is great and the talk is cheap
But never leaves a wounded one behind
A frightening lion, no doubt
He's not safe, no he's not safe
Are you tempted now to run away?

you can't enter in

I will show you love like you’ve never loved before
I will go the distance and back for more if you just say the word
You will come alive again and call the trying times your friend
The pain that you have suffered through will never get the best of you
You will hope in something real that won’t depend on how you feel
When you call my name then I will answer
I am on your side though the wind and waves beat against your faith
You were on my mind when the world was made
Trust in me my child
Walk out on the water where you have no control
So scared to death of failure you sacrifice your soul,
please let that go
You have climbed an uphill road
You have worn a heavy load
You have cried through endless nights
and nearly given up the fight
Watched your dreams like falling stars
the heartaches made you who you are
Now looking back you see that I have always been there
Where you gonna hide? Where you gonna hide from Me?
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go that I can’t see?
I have heard you cry and it breaks my heart for I love you so
I would never lie, this is not the end
there is still a hope
I will go the distance and back for more if you just say the word
You will come alive again and call the trying times your friend
The pain that you have suffered through will never get the best of you
You will hope in something real that won’t depend on how you feel
When you call my name then I will answer
I am on your side though the wind and waves beat against your faith
You were on my mind when the world was made
Trust in me my child
Walk out on the water where you have no control
So scared to death of failure you sacrifice your soul,
please let that go
You have climbed an uphill road
You have worn a heavy load
You have cried through endless nights
and nearly given up the fight
Watched your dreams like falling stars
the heartaches made you who you are
Now looking back you see that I have always been there
Where you gonna hide? Where you gonna hide from Me?
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go that I can’t see?
I have heard you cry and it breaks my heart for I love you so
I would never lie, this is not the end
there is still a hope
You can't go backwards, you must go forward
You have not been what you could be
When you are the only one that enslaves you
Then you're the only one that can set you free
Don't run away, question the answers
Live you life like it's on fire
You can't have mountains without the valleys
You can't go high if you won't go deep
You can't do over what you've done already Expecting something new to see
All that I've found through the ups and downs
Is that I'd have it no other way
Life in the raw is both fragile and strong
It's both lovely and ugly the same
Who can attest that when they're at
their best their worst is still crouching close behind???
It's coming to peace with the darkness in me
That allows the true light to shine inside
So let it go, for we are still far from home
Though you try and try to escape
To live and to love will always be dangerous But it's better than playing it safe
We are composed of a symphony of notes
Every life is as music to His ears
I'll play my melody be it haunting, be it sweet
Unashamed of what anyone might hear
So when the load breaks your back and your will
You must still keep your heart in the game
To live and to love will always be dangerous
But would you want it any other way?
If you know me, then you know that when it comes to music-- I'm all about the lyrics.
I stumbled upon a new artist recently and her words have simply been speaking to my soul.
So i'm posting these words. In no specific order.
Simply beautiful language of the universe.
