Ancient Vow
03:13
|

|
You’ve called me out of the emptiness and into Your truth -pure truth. You stepped out of a vacant tomb to display your wounds in locked rooms. When I stare up at the clouds I’m reminded that each vault will take their bow to fulfill an ancient vow. Beauty fades (as beauty fades away). Time will keep (time will surely keep). Flesh and bones (our bodies of dust and dirt). Death is reaped (from our place of appointed sleep). Who will save us from the nemesis of man? When will our Saviour bring us to the promised land? What can I offer You? I’m just a man who seeks Your glory. When can I run to You? My heart and feet feel migratory. I want to run. When I scan these murky skies, I’m reminded that the firmaments will hide from the one who brings his bride. As I sail the tossing sea, reminiscing that Your dead will be set free from the fetters of the deep. Men who build their wicked towers do so as the time draws closer to the hour when Your Kingdom comes with power.

It seems like forever since he said “soon.” He’ll be coming quickly and in the light of a blood red moon. Our hearts, they ache to dwell in truth. How we long to taste when you will make all things brand new. Now that I know what this all means. It’s my calling - my destiny. How could I go back to the unclean? No longer foul. I’m free, indeed. Blood covered bridles from the day of doom. He’ll be judging swiftly and with the Law of God in full bloom. Maybe we should love our brothers? When will we forgive each other? Can we act like guests of a proud bridegroom? Now that I know what this all means. It’s my calling - my destiny. How could I go back to the unclean? No longer foul. I’m free, indeed. Now that I know the full story. I’m reaching for divinity. This life is so transitory. No longer lost, I’ll dine with kings. How could I not spread the truth about a distant country with righteous laws of love. A land full of milk and honey. How could I not speak such things? It’s the whole gospel story. A time when men will dwell with God and bask in His eternal glory.

Moth & Rust
03:10

The world is standing still, just like clay beneath a seal. She eagerly expects the day when all will be revealed. With groans and wretchedness. The pains of her childbirth. Longing for the day when she will finally reach full term. As we sleep within her womb, our dust becomes the ground. We’ll be waiting for the Son of Man to come upon the clouds. Let us not be put to shame. God, remember those in death. Release us from captivity so we can resurrect. When you say, “Well done you good and faithful one! Come enter in to your joy and eternal rest!” When you call my name before our God above - I'll be complete. I’ll be free from moth and rust. Her chambers shall liberate every soul that’s locked inside. As we gather for a meal within the walls of his golden Bride. When the seventh trumpet sounds and the dead in Christ will rise, we will meet our spirit family as we ascend into the sky. New Covenant will bring us immortality. We will see the face of the One who made a glorious city. We will sacrifice to Him. We will eat burnt offerings. We will be His priests in an age that is free from all pain and suffering.

Fallen Man

We men know how to quarrel over things that’ll break the heart. We inflict wounds on our body of flesh with so many parts. When the factions turn into splinters, the darkness will abound. If we lowered all of our voices, could what’s left be a weeping sound? If I saw the world through the eyes of the Father above, would I reconsider the whole plan? Could I send my Son to a place that rejects what I love? The perfect reflection of all that I am - to a fallen man. Our hubris is a weakness that displaces us as a whole. We bless men with the same tongue that cursed them just days before. When will we meet the standard that the Son of Man calls us to? We’ve forgotten that we were created in the image of what’s good and true.

De Novo

The hour is upon us now. We should be waking up from this sleep. Complete salvation of God is at hand. So close, it's almost within our reach. As we participate in the truth (while exposing unfruitful deeds), the night draws closer to its end when Zion’s sons will have liberty. Awake, you sleeper! Rise up from among the dead. For Christ will give you the light that is needed to live as glorified offspring instead. Come down, Redeemer! Wake us out of our earthen beds. We’ll be gifted a life never-ending - a life that’s free from all bloodshed. How long, Sovereign Lord (immortal and true) until you judge the ones who spilt our blood before You? God will rescue us from the prince of the domain of this darkness. Transferring us into a place that is both holy and harmless. Where children run and dance and they play inside the den of the cobra. The rivers flow with life from His throne - quelling all spiritual comas. Awake, you sleeper! Rise up from among the dead, for Christ will give you the light that is needed to live as glorified offspring instead. Descend, redeem us! Allow the milk and honey to flow. Let the leaves of the trees be for healing and we’ll be made de novo.

Feeding on Fables
04:05

Have you joined the ranks of disbelief? You’re part of the picture and yet your eyes won’t see. We all feel the weight of society. We’ve been conditioned to lose our legacy. You’re a conqueror, an immortal and a priest. You are everything that you stand for in this life of malady. There’s a Kingdom that is coming with a King and it’s everything we could hope for. You’ve skimmed the pages of history. Did you find your purpose or have you lost it in the weeds? We all see the earth in calamity. Stop feeding on fables and vain philosophies. You’re a conqueror, an immortal and a priest. You are everything that you stand for in this life of malady. There’s a warrior that is coming like a thief and he’s everything this world needs. When Mount Zion rests upon our levelled plane, then the Law of God will go forth unrestrained. Every nation will come to hear it get explained. They’ll know more, they’ll want more. When Yahweh comes we'll breathe the sweetest, freshest air - in His land of fifteen hundred miles squared. Everyone will beat their swords into ploughshares. They’ll want more, they’ll live for more. God’s Kingdom will come. God’s will, will be done on the earth. This very earth. Father come down!
