O'kingdom The Rising Up
Screaming desolation! From what we have become!
There's no turning back for us now
The chosen one will lead, banish lies and hate and
greed
Majesty were on our knees and You are
What we need!
Oh, You can make the bones rise up!
Only you can make us fall like the dust we are!
Oh, You can make the bones rise up!
Only you can make us fall like the dust we are!
How do I stand and be a man for You?
When this life pulls me away from You?
Should have forgotten myself
And now Your time has come
Will You even see my face?
You who walked among us
Showed us Faith and Truth to save us
Make us worthy of Your name!
Oh, You can make the bones rise up!
Only you can make us fall like the dust we are!
How do I stand and be a man for You?
When this life pulls me away from You?
With my sin in open hands
How can I be taken in this circumstance?
With my sin in open hands
How can I be taken in this circumstance?
[Thomas a' Kempis excerpt/quote from The Imitation of
Christ: (Spoken)]
Lord, to what a pass have we come? We grieve over a
worldly loss; we labor and hustle to gain some small
profit, forgetting the harm to our souls and seldom
recalling it. We attend to matters of little or no
value and neglect those of the greatest importance. For
when a man devotes all his energies to material
affairs, he rapidly becomes immersed in them, unless he
quickly recovers his senses.
How do I stand and be a man for You?
When this life pulls me away from You?
