1. In The Shadow
In the shadow
Power no foe can withstand
Angels lifting up as the Lord commands
Under His wings shall be found refuge and fortress
Not to fear the terror that stalks in the darkness
In accessible, secret
Place of the Most High
Observe the wicked
Punishment, justify
Dwelling in Christ
(No) Evil shall befall
With long life
Salvation enthrall
Spiritual concerns, consent of humanity
In His spirit and purpose, liberating entry
Particular gloom effected, closed hesitation
Not enchanted by superstitions impressions
Not to fear in the darkness
In the shadow, refuge and fortress
[-Psalm 91]
2. Not Beneath
To provide Christ the entrance
Forsaking the empty way of life
Sure of the Spirit's fulfillment
And absence of strife
God's child of the incorruptible seed, in which the world abides
Firmly rooted, established in faith, overflowing praise arises
Existing in Christ's presence
Reaching the depths of compassion
Center of self, overtaken discipline, motivated ambitions
Confidence in His power, wisdom
And goodness within reach
More than a conqueror, established to the end
Above, not beneath
Reconciled by God
Ministry of reconciliation
Redeemed from the oppressor, escape the corruption
Confidence in His power, wisdom
And goodness within reach
More than a conqueror, established to the end
Above, not beneath
Participationg in the diving nature
Continuing to grow
In wisdon and stature
Confidence in His power, wisdom and goodness
Within reach, more than a conqueror
Established to the end
Above, not beneath
[-Deuteronomy 28:13, Corinthians 1:3, 2:5]
3. Sorrow Banished
According to His promise
New Earth, Heaven descends
God with humanity now
Encampment means
Death vanquished, sorrow banished
Overcome to inherit
Reside in God's splendour
Glory, honour, brought in
Nothing impure to enter
Death vanquished, sorrow banished
Lord God Almighty
(The) Lamb is the temple
Divine descension, Divine exclusion
Death vanquished, sorrow banished
[-Revelations 21]
4. Unseen
Faith has blessed, faith has saved
Faith has healed, faith has justified
Being sure of what is hoped for
Certain of what is unseen
Faith overcomes, faith is sincere
Faith as a shield
Faith as rightousness
Being sure of what is hoped for
Certain of what is unseen
Faith in the Father, faith is the Son
Faith in the Spirit
Faith should be revealed
[-2 Corinthians 4:18, Hebrew 11]
5. Inhabit
Praise the Lord, God Almighty
The praise of Christ enters our hearts
Holy nation never to part
Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain
To receive power, wealth, wisdom, strength, honour, glory, and praise
Inhabit our praise o'Lord
Encircle us with Your presence
Praise the Lord, God Almighty
Who is Who was
He's taken great power
And has begun to reign
Inhabit our praise o'Lord
Encircle us with Your presence
6. Breathing Murder
Breathing murder upon the early church
Destruction, the new faith to hurt
Fueled by zeal, a twisted perception
Creating disorder, a morbid obsession
Profession of faith to persecute
>From heaven a voice, journey refute
Falling to the ground
To arise without sight
Holy Spirit fill, falling scales from smite
Conspiracy to kill, voice of conversion
Speaking freely, a bold proclamation
[-Acts 8.9, Galations 1:11-24]
7. Mind Distant
False imagination
Spiritual bondage
Weakness
Thoughts to Christ, not obedient
Inner struggle, mind distant
Self-awaken
8. Darkened
Enduring a steady assault to maintain civilization
Violent society illustrates the industrialized nation
Godless (act of)
Environment (predation)
Commited by the dark side of the human condition
Defending attempt, separation
Spiritual awakening, regression
Removal of morality, ways of the Godless harken
Foolish hearts have become darkened
Emotional experiment, intellectual dishonesty
Viewing existent that sustains
Values entrenched in tradition shall remain
[Romans 1:21-23]
9. Indwelling
Divided structure cannot regain
Lack on insight, spiritual strain
Disrupting thoughts, strife is forbidden
Ignorant faith divisions will weaken
Christ wisdom maturity
Messengers assemble unit
Acknowledge the spirits indwelling
Loss of purpose, false profession
Unbelief of different foundations
Divided structre not ro remain
Christ wisdom maturity
Messengers assemble unit
Acknowledge the spirits indwelling
Enduring truth, exposure of reason
Bring the lost out of suffering
Oneness with God, social peace
Divine knowledge to increase
[-Luke 11:17, 1 Corinthians 1:10, 3:16-17]
10. Departure
Altered state of mind induced by terror
Depression, placed out of consciousness
Most profound betrayal
Most painful revelation
Dissociated memories
Provoke trapped anguish
Related sensation produce fear decades later
Most profound betrayal
Most painful revelation
Cease the entanglement from future abuse
Embark on a search, walk in forgiveness
[-Luke 11:4, John 20:23]
