Crossroads 03:55
When time and tide has failed you And the oceans have all run dry I pray return to the shore For the treasure in the sand Closed off hearts and clouded minds are The result when we seek for things of this world We've become slaves to our possessions We need regeneration Strength for today Hope for tomorrow Strength for today And hope for tomorrow These roads once travelled lay abandoned Who will stand by His side As we weather the storms of this fallen world You can't wait at the crossroads Waiting for the winds to change is death I will not let this world take what's left of me Casting off this misery Putting faith in eternity If you abide in Me, My words abide in you Ask for whatever you wish it will be done for you Strength for today And hope for tomorrow These roads once travelled lay abandoned Who will stand by His side As we weather the storms of this fallen world You can't wait at the crossroads Waiting for the winds to change is death

In Memoriam 04:08
3 AM Roused from sleep Mournful news is what you bring I can hear it in your voice I can see it in your eyes If only you could see your sons holding their mother tight They're falling to the ground To the ground Why didn't I see this coming? I thought I knew you better than anyone Please God calm the storm inside me Is he there with You? In that house there's an empty chair Where you used to sit Laughter filled the air How could I have made things right? How could I have made you stay? Is there room in this casket for two? It ought to be me not you Is there room in this casket for two? It ought to be me not you Memories will fade But my heart will never forget Memories will fade But my heart will never forget Forget In that house there's an empty chair Where you used to sit Laughter filled the air How could I have made things right? How could I have made you stay? Is there room in this casket for two? It ought to be me not you Is there room in this casket for two? It ought to be me not you

Ineffable 03:47
Who knew love could kill my dreams? There's no going back The calm before the storm Murder on your lips Saying all these words That mean nothing to me Here I go again I've lost my self control This addiction must not break me The tremble in your voice Sharp breaths between words Who knew that love could kill my dreams? There's no going back To who I was A lesson learned Bind up my wounds Heal this broken heart These memories are now a reminder of a broken promise You reap the gain of leaving, I sow feelings of loss Who knew love could kill my dreams? There's no going back Time does not heal all wounds Some things you can never forget Time does not heal all wounds Some things you can never forget

Departure 02:42
Now is the time To die to ourselves The night is spent The day is at hand Cast off the works of darkness Put on the armor of light Desires of the flesh Keep pulling me back I must stand firm Never giving in Not for me but for You give glory Not for me but for You give glory Tearing flesh from bone Rip me in two Expose me for all that I am All of my deeds count for nothing I want to go back When I didn't live with clouded eyes I enjoyed the simple things The wind in my hair and the sun on my face Has life lost its luster? Now is the time To die to ourselves The night is spent The day is at hand Cast off the works of darkness Put on the armor of light I want to go back When I didn't live with clouded eyes I enjoyed the simple things The wind in my hair and the sun on my face Has life lost its luster?

Recollection 03:43
The clock ticks A cadence of pain and hopelessness A dam breaking I can not replace I can hear the sirens call Lured by her tempting song And I know that I've been here before Still I can't bear the thought of years lost I can hear my demons in the night When will I fade from the light When weary eyes are closed the will erodes When familiar backs are turned tragedy unfolds I know I've failed again But I hear Your voice within I turn my eyes To the hills Where do I draw my strength from I turn my eyes To the God Who I put my trust in I turn my eyes To the hills Where do I draw my strength from I turn my eyes To the God Who I put my trust in Save me now Try to flee the guilt But it's overtaking I see red words And my world is shaking A cadence of pain and hopelessness A dam breaking I can not replace I can hear the sirens call Lured by her tempting song And I know that I've been here before Still I can't bear the thought of years lost I turn my eyes To the hills Where do I draw my strength from I turn my eyes To the God Who I put my trust in I turn my eyes To the hills Where do I draw my strength from I turn my eyes To the God Who I put my trust in

Paths 03:31
Every choice that you make And every path that you take Is an echo in eternity What will you decide today? Looking back at mistakes we've made We can't let regret go to waste We have the chance to start today Or will you be led astray? As long as air still graces my lungs The wide path will not assuade me As long as blood still runs through my veins Your words will not depart from me From the first page and to the last And In between every single word You reveal Yourself to me I can't just read these truths I need to act upon them Every single day I'm learning who I'm truly meant to be Every single day I'm learning who I'm truly meant to be Every choice that you make And every path that you take Is an echo in eternity What will you decide today? Looking back at mistakes we've made We can't let regret go to waste We have the chance to start today Or will you be led astray? “No wonder we are a people as we are. To know Him. That's what everything is about, that's eternal life. And eternal life doesn't begin when you pass through the gates of glory. Eternal life begins with conversion. Eternal life is to know Him. Do you honestly think you're going to be thrilled About swinging on gates of pearl and walking down streets of gold for an eternity? There is One there who is infinite in glory. And you will spend an eternity of eternities tracking Him down, And you will never get your arms even around the foothill of His mountain. You made a decision and you think you were sincere, But there's no evidence of a supernatural recreating work of the Holy Spirit in your life. If any man, not if some men. If any man be in Christ he is a new creature. Get to the Gospel. Spend your life on your knees. Get away from men. Study the cross.” - Paul Washer

Loss 04:15
I'm drowning in this open ocean I'm dying in these hellish emotions When will I find my way back home Find my way back home Give me a sign to know that I'm not alone Not alone Cause when I close my eyes It still haunts my mind Haunts my mind I've been searching forever Giving up on it ever getting better Through it all I’ve tried to change Through it all I just feel the same So tired of this living hell So tired of this place I dwell When will I rest my eyes I just feel dead inside What is fate If all turns to grey In the end my life will fade What is fate In the end my life will fade What is fate if not pain and suffering I'm drowning in this open ocean I'm dying in these hellish emotions When will I find my way back home Find my way back home Give me a sign to know that I'm not alone Not alone Cause when I close my eyes It still haunts my mind Haunts my mind I've been searching forever Giving up on it ever getting better Through it all I’ve tried to change Through it all I just feel the same Forever the same Forever the same Forever the same Break me I’m not giving in Heal me And find strength within One foot in front of the other Keep going even when we suffer Break me I’m not giving in Heal me And find strength within One foot in front of the other Keep going even when we suffer
