24 voices


So often the eyes of my skin look further than the eyes of my heart. Yes the mountains, sun, and stars contain beauty, but why do I look there to remind me of the work you've done when the true work you're accomplishing lies within my soul.

Yes, your glory can be heard in the rain and the lightning, but don't let me forget the real power is contained within the whispers of my heart.

Yes, you've blessed me with friends and the comfort of company, but when lonliness accompanies a full room remind me that the fullness of joy is only a heartbeat away in the chest of my savior.

A joke is made and a smile is drawn,
Another routine slips into the dawn
Tomorrow will come and begin again
but yesterdays mess holds tight within

Round and round on the makers wheel
Routine makes blunt the iron of how I feel
No one can accuse me of the effort I've put forth,
Because every attempts been made for the heart to be restored

Your beauty is so obvious in this world around,
You made mountains climb up, and the water crawl down
But the beauty of this cannot save me heart,
Only your touch within will make straight my crooked scars

Come and hold what I have to give
It's not much, but now I must live
I beg a voice to my heart not to my senses
Break me down, tear down the fences

My selfishness is holding me here,
but the power of your death makes alive black fear
I'm moving now, step by step with you
Though I can't see, unconditional love's proven true
