3. Body Of Christ
4. Vessel
1. Certainty Of Death
With our eyes on the world we lose sight of God- Possessions fill out thoughts with lust- Lust for this futile world, lust for these empty wants- Temporary feelings that show us- Certainty of Death- hold on to things that won't pass away and don't need sense to feel- if death were to come now wouldn't you rather your soul in your hands- things have destroyed us- God will save us- Now, think how your life is- let go of the world take grasp your faith- Now, think of the life you'll live- EMBRACE YOUR PASSING- HIS LIGHT IS BRIGHTER IN THE DARKNESS OF DEATH
2. Golgatha
Thou father, harken unto the voice of my prayer to you- Show me what I must do to save them- To die, let this cup pass from me for I am afraid- never the less your will not mine- Deliver me unto the council- There where be no resistance- Given the worse sentence- I stand here before you- As you beat me, beat unmercifully, this all must past, Splatter the blood on my face, nothing will replace my love for you- Scourge me, ripped skin from flesh and bone to show you are not alone, I do this for you- Crucify my body, split up for you, condemning flesh to forgive, washed in blood so you'll live
3. Body Of Christ
All divisions of Christ, Do you not understand- the separations between us pierce nails in his hands- While put on the cross for our transgressions, God's word is crucified by the doctrines of man- We are given the light so we may finally see- our shadows of sin bind us to our enemy- Now in the light sins are easily seen- only with the full body of Christ, without we're lost in between- Every kingdom divided against itself cannot stand- even if Satan drives out Satan he will fall to his end- Each limb needs to stand together as one with the rest- Although many, they are one body, so also is Christ- We have become one divided amongst each other, while knowing this is not God's love towards another- if we remain apart from each other we'll all be put on the cross together, God is one, He is Love, undivided in a trinity to show how we should be in the name of the Lord- Amen.
4. Vessel
In our disguise we are a vessel- Brandish our light for all to see- Our path is lit, word of God in hand- to excel we must be flowing water in the midst of sand- Souls are boiling, hands of the lost are reaching out- the smell of burning flesh everywhere- horrible screams pierce through the ears- the melted bodies fall to rise again, then dissolve back into their pits of sin- we're under attack- our message must stand strong in the center of warfare- we are the bringers of light- we have our candles raised- not covered by garments in delight of our enemy.
