Truth 03:55
lyrics
buy track
Make no offense, stay chaste and true, remembers all the things to do when confrontation comes to you. Respectfully I'll disagree, and then so quietly my leave it signals how afraid I am. Conviction binds me to the core. I can't approach this way no more... The facts don't lie Your love is real No longer will I stay and kneel I'll rehabilitate my path My mouth was sewn, excuses made Threads cut out, I make new refrains Cause with You I will never be afraid. I wanna shout the truth out loud no matter how it starts to sound Your word's too powerful to keep. And though they'll stone me to the ground Invincible the truth surrounds Your word's too powerful to stay... Deep inside. With no Light. x2 Take all the pain with every breath Replace the wants and inmost dread With strength that fixes all my debts. A fickle failure it seems But oh I'd really like to dream That every moment I'll be closer to the kingdom that I see. There comes a time when info's sold The data changes new and old But You will always stay the same. Though history is on repeat Empires crumbled underneath The heart and soul will always find a way to worship and say. Silence no longer shout even stronger oh how the truth it burns, toss the ashes in urns Hard to believe even harder to see Strip away my petty thoughts keep my eyes on the cross.

Faithless 03:59
lyrics

Verse 1 I think it's time that we said goodbye. I'll try to forget the good times you lied. And in this attempt, I will try to be sincere But I know my words, fall on your deaf ears. Chorus Absolve me the sin, of being human and frail. Lay grounded and writhe, cause all I do in your eyes is "fail' I begged for your mercy but you gave me away And all of my burdens had all stewed, and stayed. Verse 2 Took all my efforts. Burned them all with your fire. Was I on borrowed time? another log for the pyre? And sadly I crawled, with my charred heart I returned Naively I pushed through, "just another step to feel earned" Ending Release me, set free the soul you trapped so long Efface my skin of your trace and purge my ears of your song. The wasted days I've spent tryin to fool myself. Let's face it, I'm faithless after you put me through hell.

Sails 03:28
lyrics

Fear was stronger than the darkest depths I knew Near me stood the ocean deep so full of gloom Bells came calling, I went falling when you spoke to me Lighthouse flickered, brighter, bigger, than anything I'd seen. You patched the holes in my sails And now I can conquer the waves. Ohhhh what's this I feel? Ohhhh can my heart start to heal? Out of darkness though we're fallen Love it binds us cause we trust in Him who created, us to be made from love. Broken, bruised, and battered were your weary eyes So much pain that underneath You try to hide Kindness ridden, You had given me a glimpse of truth Through your trials, and many miles, I'll always stick with you.

Culture 04:42
lyrics

Lost on the path a wayward child. Directionless, stuck in faith so mild. Searching for more than what he's got. The travesty we have truly wrought. "Why should he fight anymore?" Still go to Sunday church on time. Sing all the same and tired rhymes. Partake in the way they sell His word. And I don't dare question what I've heard. "Why should I fight anymore?" Cause the works of God are so much greater than they even know, we can't admit that such a life is just not good for hungry souls. At every function feel the pain and shame that always wears us down, I say this solitary christendom is forcing us out. Oh in the desert dry and cracked. She sought forgiveness for her past. No water to wash away that stain. They sent her away with guilt and pain. "Why should she fight anymore?" "Why don't we try anymore?" The truth that they've let go of Jesus is a pill we've got to take, and all wreckage left behind we've got to pick up in their wake. I promised You that I would be for justice, peace and Holy war, against the enemy that strives to undo all that we fought for. The women, children, and the men that search for meaning, strength, and love, the church here in America it seems to me they've given up. But damn it all I'd rather fight to make it right than give up now. The culture filled so called "followers", forces me out.

Scythe of The Reaper 03:39
lyrics
buy track
Walk along the country's roads, see the weeds oh how they've grown Leaving unattended the work that must be done Wheat from the Chaff, the old and young Sycthe of the reaper comes for all Can we finally accept the call? Were we meant to sow good seeds? Crawl upon our hands and knees? Or is the reality we reject too grim Family torn apart by sin Stay in the comfort we know well Don't want to put yourself through hell. Cause truth takes tolls, it's not so easy sold You've got to be bold and face that within every heart's a suffering soul. Make the time and grace will find its way to heal the hurt. But remember there are shadows still at work... Preaching to a mass of grey Have no color in your faith Wear it like a coat that that will keep you safe from harm Warding away all the alarms Comfort and culture keeps you warm So long as you will always stay conformed. Long into the night I pray Wait to see another day Hoping that my efforts of love will all shine through As a servant of God I will stay true Strong is the spirit faced with trial You'll be with me through every mile. And dark is the path we tread through when we speak, all the ears and eyes that cast aside the truth, they just see suffering. Once upon a time the man we follow walked this very road.. the Reapers Sycthe waits for me this I know. But truth be told his love has made me grow. All anxious feelings I must surely throw. This garden needs some tending and the hands to do the work. So it's time to dig in deeper to the dirt. Fix the soil, and leave no stone unturned. And Shout the truth no matter who thinks they've heard.
