Wolves At The Gate

Tell me I'm yours Tell me I'm not alone Falling apart in this silence alone Tell me I'm yours... Tell me I'm not alone! I see the night slipping over It crawls along coming closer I feel the lies pull me under I hear your voice like it's thunder You...

“Doctor! Doctor! Check all the vitals This tragedy struck is done and it's final Don't you, don't you know it's been said? You can be alive while already dead” Once laid in darkness with no plan devised The slightest glimpse of light would burn my eyes I fee...

I'm lying barren in my own blood It's drowning me like a rushing flood A wave of crimson eclipse my eyes No sign of pity here My lips are silenced with blistering The utter silence is deafening Vultures fly above They're calling out my name The viper...

Eyes wide in this reverie but it's all still dark as night (I'm falling fast asleep) Black tides of my misery coming down upon my sight (I drown into the deep) Is there but a ghost inside these bones? Come now my darling Come now beloved, My love it cal...

Who's shut the mouths of beasts and with the sound of His voice it renders peace? Who's drowned the earth with rain and made a promise to man to never do the same? Who's crushed the walls of stone by the use of the sound of the trumpets blown? Who appoints the...

Barely alive but who'd believe it I'm living clean but my heart is defiled Barely alive but who'd believe it I bear a heart of stone Yeah! I look alive but the inside is something worse Fooling all with the right deeds and nice words I'm feeding lies a...

I know who you are, you wanted to be perfect In all that you were but you bailed, you bailed I know who you are, you wanted to be worth it In all that you were but you failed, you failed Kill all the lights, you fear what's inside Cover Your eyes, I'm tr...

I was once a dead man A stranger with no home I stood opposed to God himself And yet He pardoned me With all my heart and the fiercest will Desired not but to thieve and kill I hadn't a thought of peace, but war Surrender was not what I'd endure I was a murd...

What will you gain? What will you earn? What is your claim? From dust we come and dust we return. If I loved wealth I'd find the root of evil, if I lust for power I'd lose my soul, if I sought fame I'd be a thief of all your honor. Honor, glory and pr...

“What is true joy or hope? Where can it be found? Is it a promise of golden streets? Is it in escaping the fires of hell? No. All things are worthless in view of the surpassing value of simply knowing God and being known by Him. Oh, that I may know Him! To one...

(Oh, I wanted to see a fire ablaze in my heart A flame not full of smoke) I know Your love is a fire (Why am I so cold?) My flesh it screams: "You're a liar" (Those cries are so old) The smoke ascends, the embers dim (Just follow its trail) Help me I'...

(As I drift on the water, a voice calling to me had said: "Sail into the harbor, cast down your nets and follow Me" First of all the chosen, I saw the raising of the dead It must be my devotion for I stood alone upon that sea) So I walked on the tempest,...

A selfish man, a wretch I do stand, just as you we are the same But how is it that justice follows in Your wake and grace remains? And grace remains? Your grace remains! Still grace remains! This is justice for my wickedness with your Son descending Onto this...

(Prisoned am I to this shell of the dust It speaks of only fiction that I could never trust Captured alive in this sinful estate Vexed am I to see I do the things that I hate Rip out the framework leave no stone unturned Until my heart forgets all that my...

Though all of us have gone our own way. Though all of us have left and gone astray. Left and gone astray. The Savior restrained. The King He was chained. For a people of unclean lips With our hands blood stained. For the sake of His glory and love His...

Blistered feet, bloodied alone Walked the streets a man unknown Battered face as He adorns A mocker's robe, a crown of thorns A tree designed for His demise Cursed, maligned by guilty cries The nails and hammer they did meet Two in the hands, one in the...

I can see the end in sight as we pacify our itching ears Quickly we are trending light and absolving self of all eternal fears Until our conscious clears Hear this voice engage the fight as I pound my chest still knowing my end nears Still knowing my end nears...

Fight the good fight, (the) attempt for the brave This trek for the lost has brought more than a grave Bathed in the fire for you hope water's pure The flames will grow higher it's taste is your cure I do not fear the world's fire for it (only) burns for a mo...

Oh the depths of riches, like the water that fills the earth The knowledge of my Creator who gives me worth And though I crave to know all of the patterns of this world Is endless for it's beyond tracing out So from as far as I've seen there is a great hoard...

Oceans come to pass on the wreckage of all my drowning vessels Still these waters swallow and torment all the men that face their swells In this sea of treachery my heart holds fast to this vessel As the waves pass over me I feel this ship tremble Breaking...

For we do not have a God who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but One who has been tempted in all things as we are, yet without sin. Therefore let us draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, so that we may receive mercy and find help…” All w...

May my lying down acquaint me with my grave. From this life it will save. I know I’m prone to sin, one day I’ll be whole. These aching bones don’t hold my soul. Hold my soul. Hold my soul. These aching bones don’t hold my soul. Someday I will die. I’ll...

I saw these chains locked on my wrists Around my neck no shackles missed I'd try to shake them off and flee No where to go without a key Awoke my eyes drew the first breath New to the world but not to death This plan devised in secrecy May take my life or set...

Step out to the water and you'll see what I believe Come out to the water and you'll see of whom I sing For the seas are raging and the ocean grows I see your arms are flailing as your panic shows Look beyond the waves to the One who saves Still this sto...

(Bold sounds rise upwards Cold words thunder) (Oh, how I cried aloud Though no one heard a sound How I was locked and chained But none could see me bound) (For I spoke of peace But I dreamt of war) Secrets have a voice Screaming without breath My...

The morning is coming with a hunger to feed. I’ll do what I’ve got to get the taste that I need. Minute by minute and hour by hour. I’ll feed this pit with what I find and all I can scour. Give me a feather and I’ll trade you my friend. It’s just a singl...

Fallen, fallen! Here we stand wrapped up in our crimes. It’s all of us who are afflicted. It’s all of us convicted. All’ve fallen! All’ve fallen! The verdict call is “Guilty!” Here we stand all wrapped up in our crimes. It is all of us who must surre...

1 Cor. 6:20, 7:23; 2 Cor. 5:21 “What kind of love is this, friends? What kind of love is that is so big, so without bounds, that He would come, He would want, He would want to do so much to rescue people who wanted nothing to do with Him? Who fought Him even...

I've seen the road and it's snares I bore the load though it wears I've heard your curses and taunts and yet it won't stop me I've heard your curses and slights and still it won't stop me Slept through the coldest of nights From ever calling You “king” O...

Death awaits us all as we walk this path Though different endings, in His light or in His wrath We never know what awaits For every loved one lost I see the pain in every heart And still we all must pay the cost our sin has kept us apart So you've got th...

Five by five, five by five. “I don’t know about you, I long for a place to place my hands, so that all of my guilt would be transferred away and He would drive it far from me. I, I need that! I want that! Do you? Oh, for a place! Oh, for a refuge! He’s willi...

John 1:23, 29; Romans 10:17 Wake up! Wake up! The wolves are biting. The wolves are clawing and snatching up the sheep. For if we speak without the truth upon our lips, We're giving in and we’re falling fast asleep. Creating more prodigals. More jade...

I consider my life worth nothing to me if only I may finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me. The task of testifying to the Gospel of God's grace. Now I know that none of you whom I have gone about preaching the Kingdom will ever s...

Keeping watch while the whole world sleeps (Listen close) Feel the earth toss and turn and weep (Hear its voice) A wearied ground opens up to roar (Hear it roar) "How much longer will this pain endure?" We're waiting for a better day The shadows gone, al...
