Mountain Goats Romans 10:9
Wake up sixty minutes after my head hits the pillow, I
can't live like this
And in the shower I am a sailor standing ready, waiting
for the shift list
Everything looks burned up, I'm too scared to look
around
Don't feel like going on, but come on, make a joyful
sound
If you will believe in your heart
And confess with your lips
Surely you will be saved one day
Try to think of ways to fix myself but everything ends
in a cul-de-sac
The beast broke from the barn while we were sleeping,
face it, face it, he's not coming back
Don't see what the point is in even trying to fight
Look for the bigger picture when I close my eyes real
tight
If you will believe in your heart
And confess with your lips
Surely you will be saved one day
Look for the sign of Daniel
Consider the clues
Wait as long as I have to for good news
Wake and rise and face the day and try to stop the day
from staring back at me
Busy hours for joyful hearts and later maybe head out
to the pharmacy
Won't take the medication but it's good to have around
A kind and loving God won't let my small ship run
aground
If you will believe in your heart
And confess with your lips
Surely you will be saved one day
