1. Ascension
I am the lord. I am calling you.
Death isn´t finish, rise from your sleep!
Judgement day has come!
You will be delivered,
if your name is written in the book of life.
2. From Dust To Dust
I turned my thoughts to consider
wisdom, madness and folly.
The wise and the fool, who am I?
What do I gain by being wise?
Chorus:
The same fate get us all.
Death doesn´t ask for wisdom.
All come from dust,
and to dust al return.
Like the fool, the wise too must die.
With wisdom comes much sorrow,
the more knowledge the more grief.
To apply myself to wisdom,
is a chasing after wind.
I saw that wisdom is better than folly,
as light is better than darkness.
The wise man has eyes in his head,
the fool walks in darkness.
Chorus
3. True Wisdom
What ever exsists, has already been named
The more the words, the less the meaning
And how does it gain any one?
All this is tested by wisdom and said:
"I am determined to be wise!"
But wisdom was beyond me
Whatever wisdom may be
To deep for us, to hard to understand
No one controls the wind
No one choose their day of death
In time of war no one escape
Evil will not save the wicked
Who is like the wise man?
He who knows what wisdom is
To love and fear God
The Author and Creator
Ecc. 6-8
4. The Riddle
Now we look like in a mirror, in a riddle.
Then we are going to see face to face.
Ultimate knowledge, not of this world.
We just see one side of the truth.
Chorus
What is the burden the man in the mirror bears?
Why a tear in his eye?
If we could know what we could really be,
wouldn´t we break down and cry?
The wise man bends reality
to know the secred,
what would it look like on the other side.
If we could reach out, what would we see,
honestly, what is really to be?
Chorus
5. Truth Misunderstood
Chorus:
I ask what is the truth?
Sweet, little words to my ear?
I ask what is the truth?
Spreading the seeds of death?
I ask what is the truth?
Accepting their lies, twisted into truth?
V1:
No one calls for justice
No one pleads his case with integrity
They rely on empty arguments
And speak their lies
Friend deceives friend
And no one speaks the truth
They have thaught their tongues to lie
They weary themselves with sinning
Chorus
V2:
Their throats are open graves
Their tongues practice deceit
The arrogant can not stand
Declare them guilty, God!
Let God be true, and every man a liar
Cause war is in his heart
His words are drawn swords
Chorus (x2)
6. Noone
No one's eye has seen, no one's ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared
for those who love him.
But God has revealed it to us by his spirit
Blessed are those whose transgressions are forgiven.
Blessed are they Whose sins are covered.
Blessed is the man whose sin the Lord will never count against Him!
Those who were not told about him will see, and those who have not heard will understand.
God of Peace will soon crush satan under your feet.
The Grace of our Lord Jesus be with you.
Blessed are those whose transgressions are forgiven.
Blessed are they Whose sins are covered.
Blessed is the man whose sin the Lord will never count against Him!
7. The End Of The Age
8. The Voice Of Righteousness
9. The Just Shall Live By Faith
