Beds Of Stone

God, send a fire to our hearts, let our souls be made to start asking for your hand to move in your ways we all will prove... Your love is one thing we won't lose. God, in your spirit guide our ways, flood with justice all our days though we sleep on this cold ground we will know we're safe and sound... Your grace keeps falling down. Beds of stone to make our spirits known draw us closer to you Lord. Build a home within our hearts so cold, fan the flames in our lost souls! God, in your son you gave us life, no more needless endless strife, we will see your kingdom come, we will let your will be done... Glory like the sun. Beds of stone to make our spirits known take us further to you Lord. Build a home within our hearts so cold, fan the flames in our lost souls! Jesus draw us closer to you, let your love and mercy shine through. Remind us you were but a humble Jew. You reclaimed us for your own with you the seeds were sown! Beds of stone to make our spirits known take us further to you Lord. Build a home within our hearts so cold, fan the flames in our lost souls!

Here We Lay 04:12
Anxious breath. Under my skin I feel my worth deflate. Shaky palms, begging for alms from Him above all names. My sin an ocean. Expect a sweeping motion "you've no business here" No way to renew, what's dead is dead, can't redo. My heart grows weary with fear. But You... gave it all, took the fall for my flesh. And though... I am small, I am welcomed into rest. Thought that alone I'd have no one to stay. But you're with me, God, and Here We Lay. Yet again, there seems no end to all my wicked ways. Abandonment, my actions sent my loved ones off so gray. I can't imagine that You could start to fasten all these knots I've worn. Believe me Father, take me to Holy Waters. Comfort my heart so forlorn. Because You... gave it all, took the fall for my flesh. And though... I am small, I am welcomed into rest. Thought that alone I'd have no one to stay. But you're with me, God, and Here We Lay. The stream of life that you pour from can refresh this wayward heart, and in time I will see all the good things that we're in me from the start. The pain that I've committed has no power over me, with the grace that you have given, I'll pick up again after falling on my knees. Thought I was cursed to be always astray, But You took me in and You said I'm Saved.

n stillness I was frozen, a husk without a home My mouth with words unspoken, journeys yet unknown. I tried to hear your voice, but silence deafened me. Now I'm given choice, I'd rather take my leave. My Heart has grown, far away from Your love from the soil and the water I used to drink from If there is way to send relief, send it to me. This fog's too dense to see through, no visibility. My bated breath grows anxious, come and set me free. All others cannot help me, they speak no words of love And make the harsh suggestion, that I'm not enough. Our Hearts have grown far away from Your truth into vile corruption that tears at the roots If there is a way then grant release from the terror overtaking me. Set me ablaze, burn doubt and pain. Remember to trust, in your endless Love. Douse me with rain, loose my restraints Remind me to trust, that I Am Enough.

Another step to take, into the fray I walk with you. My spirit always fights Do you know what's right? I'm sure you do. For your ways are higher than mine. Without You, the sun wouldn't shine My hand is outstretched towards your holy design You're the flame in my heart that burns bright. A sullen state I'm always in The weight of sin wears on me And yet in spite you just forgive? You let me live and make me see. In your ways I'm called to be free. To let you shamelessly wash over me I can't understand and I'd never conceive That the God of all things made me his family. Give me courage to face every day. To walk the valleys of pain that we've made. Remind us we have a part left to play In the journey there's life to be made.

In The End 04:30
Forward unto dawn the new day calls, beckon forth our voices into song, gaze upon the ancient hand's designs, clarity of heart and peace of mind. Mountaintops and clouds above the sea, sunsets reach the deepest parts of me, see creation bursting forth with life, my soul starts to cry... In the ends of the Earth I will see your mighty works Round the bend, second birth, now I see what I am worth. Whispers of the world through wind and rain, take me back to when Your Love began. Creatures of the land, the air, and sea, All the care displayed so perfectly. Valleys low with Forests full of trees, birds that sing with such sweet Harmony, A truth that needs no words to paint the scene, cause I can plainly see... Within the waters I will find You there, Bringing glory out of all of this despair. The beauty that you always make, isn't limited by my mistakes. I thought your biggest canvas was the sky, but there's something so much greater inside.

Torrential it pours like a flood in my path, and the road washes out. Ash scatters swiftly as all that I have, has been burned to the ground. Worries abound from my mind it surrounds in a cloud so gray But every storm passes, and much greener grasses will come someday. I'm not alone. With You I have no fear. Cause All I've known, is with You it's all made clear My cornerstone, the rock I stand upon All doubts are thrown, and soon I'll see the dawn. Shattered and broken, with two bloody feet I walk the fields of glass Spirit is shaken, the will to press on starts to fade so fast Watching and waiting to see what's to come has me on the edge But tomorrow brings promise and good will be done If I ask and I pledge... I'm not alone. With You I have no fear. Cause All I've known, is with You it's all made clear My cornerstone, the rock I stand upon All doubts are thrown, and soon I'll see the dawn In my heart I know You care, in my suffering You're there. Echoes distant sing to me, that with You I'm always free. Shield strong and sword so sharp, the protector of my heart. You have died and lived again, Jesus my eternal friend. The day is long and night grows dark, with your servant please impart. How to love one like you do, to stay so good and kind and true... I'm not alone. With You I have no fear. Cause All I've known, is with You it's all made clear My cornerstone, the rock I stand upon All doubts are thrown, and soon I'll see the dawn.

So much more that I could offer to this world that always cries oh see it divide Hearts will shatter, when all are actors playing fake roles, through the lies it's how we survive. Take a chance that maybe You were made for something more. The precipice of fate can take some some faith. It's knocking at your door. We were Meant for taking love to every distant soul, to chisel at the stone and finally break out of the mold. I'm not an act, no more a liar, so set this heart on holy fire cause We were Meant for so much more. Roads less taken, souls shall be shaken, with righteous fervor in our hands we'll mend the strands. Masks will falter at the altar, chains will break with love on high and louder we cry...

To Be Here 03:51
What do I do now? My journey seems done, I have nowhere... nowhere to run. "Onwards and Upwards" It's all that they say, but I feel you asking... saying to stay. Kindness and laughter, they've seemed to fade. Out in the darkness, my soul is in wait. Give me command, and a light for my feet. Your love and your grace is what I truly need. Beds of stone here we lay, Hearts have grown for your ways. In the end, it's all clear. We were meant to be here. Distractions abound in these days of unrest. Introspection is put to the test. Keep me focused on what you have planned, always hold me in your hand.

about

An album I wrote to truly exemplify a relationship with Jesus, Beds of Stone is both energetic and inspiring, but contemplative and sorrowful.
