Beams of Light
04:13
|
|||
Beams of light are seen at a distance tonight
By those who waited patiently for time to cease
People leave their homes and run quickly to see
The source of where their hearts will lie
When they’re swallowed up in light
So all-consuming
And overwhelming
Their bodies disappear
Their souls are unified
The darkest age has ended
Eternal love has won
Evil has been stripped away from life
And death itself is gone
Constant light drowns out all the darkness tonight
Everyone fixates on its beauty and majesty
A single voice cuts into the depths of their souls
And tells them that they are alive
And that they’ll never die
So all-consuming
And overwhelming
Their bodies reappear
Their hearts are unified
The darkest age has ended…
The darkest age has ended…

Sojourner
02:14
|
|||
Give us peace of mind
We are restless souls
We’ve traveled for years
And we thirst for blood
The desert is so bare
And we are the ones who survived
We’ve traveled for years…
We are never returning
We have nowhere else to go

Endure to the End
03:27

“I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom: preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching. For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths. As for you, always be sober-minded, endure suffering, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.
For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure has come. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will award to me on that day, and not only to me but also to all who have loved his appearing.”
(excerpt from 2 Timothy 4:1-8 ESV)

Shift Your Eyes
02:56
|
|||
Discard your distractions and shift your eyes
On the brush that paints your dreams in the sun
And your fears in the night, and your fears in the night
Take a look at all the world
And how it breathes in and out
Separate yourself from despair
Every breath you take is under His control
So don’t despair
Just cast your doubts on Him
He’ll only pour out his grace and love
And all your anxieties can be erased
So don’t despair

Martyrs
05:22
|
|||
There is nothing they can take
We possess the gift of eternal life
Whether we live or we die
We are with the Lord throughout all time
Though they try to kill us off
The message spreads, it’s a miracle
The message spreads through the blood of those who died
Whether we live or we die
We are with the Lord throughout all time
Fight the good fight
And finish the race
And keep the faith
Keep the faith
Persevere to the very end
Finish the race
And keep the faith
The blood of the martyrs is on their hands..
It’s on their hands..

Break from the Earth
04:04
|
|||
Count your losses
Bury the dead ones you loved
Pick up your cross
[Cross] the distance
Carry what’s left that you own
Collect your thoughts
Feel the crushing weight of each step
Feel the fire burning from the ground
Look up to the sky and wonder,
“How much longer? How much longer?”
How much longer will it take?
How much longer will it take to escape
From the mocking voices laughing every day?
We try to break from the earth
And ascend to the stars, ascend to the stars
Eternity seems so far and distant

I fell down in the pit again
But this time no one seemed to notice
My sight has left my eyes
And all sound has faded with time
No one is here to save my life
I’ve been left here to die
Someone please save me ‘cause I’m gonna stop breathin’
(I’ve been left here to die)
And I know I’ve taken so much for granted
But if someone just saved me I would trust in more than myself
I can’t breathe in this pit again
But this time someone seemed to notice
He reached out and grabbed my hand
And took me far from this cursed land
He came down to save my life
Now I feel so alive
Jesus Christ saved me and restored my vision
(Now I feel so alive)
And I know I’ve taken so much for granted
But Jesus Christ saved me, now I trust in more than myself
Someone saved me ‘cause I can’t stop breathin’
He’s given me sight
He’s given me sound
He’s given me light
He’s given me time
He came down

Don't Forget
01:18
|
|||
Please don’t forget
He never left
Please don’t go
Before you are told
He never left you
He’ll never leave you
He’s always here
He’s always here
Now go forth and know you’re always His
You’re always His
