Favorite Lyrics

Was looking through the site and didn't see a thread like this...feel free to merge if there is. I am really into the lyrics of songs that I listen to over and over. Here is one that I have recently aquired and have listened to many times already. Please feel free to share your fav lyrics, I will enjoy them.

Through You
by Saint

Trying to live my life for you
I don’t know if I can
To make it on my own you know
I’m only just a man
My lack of dependence keeps me
From what I’ll receive
Reach your hand down to me now
Help me to believe

(Chorus)
Take this bitter cup
Death won’t be my friend
You conquered the night
Through you I am winning

Knowing that your word is real
Knowing that you’re true
Still I find myself in chains
Can’t make it without you
Looking to your guiding light
Wanting to come in
Always there to help me out
You pick me up again

(Chorus)

Good times come and good times go
I’ll always need you
Showing me the wrongs and rights
Your love comes shinning through
Best of all you help me when
Temptations enter in
You conquered the darkest night
You made me new again

(Chorus X2)

Is that a Fundy original? Very strong words, and emotional. Well done.

Petra - Creed

I believe in God the Father - maker of heaven and earth
And in Jesus Christ His only Son
I believe in the virgin birth
I believe in the Man of Sorrows bruised for iniquities
I believe in the Lamb who was
crucified and hung between two thieves

I believe in the resurrection on the
third and glorious day
And I believe in the empty tomb and the
stone that the angel rolled away
He descended and set the captives free
And now He sits at God's right hand
and prepares a place for me [/size]

(Chorus)
This is my creed - the witness I have heard
The faith that has endured
This truth is assured
Through the darkest ages past
Though persecuted, it will last
And I will hold steadfast to this creed

I believe He sent His Spirit to comfort and to reveal
To lead us into the truth and light, to baptize and to seal
I believe that He will come back the way He went away
And receive us all unto Himself, but no man knows the day

I believe He is the Judge of all men, small and great
The resurrected souls of men receive from Him their fate
Some to death and some to life, some to their reward
Some to sing eternal praise forever to our Lord

Hi Staybrite, it was a Guy Ritter original

(it's Tourniquet's "Broken Chromosomes" just love that song.)

Love that Petra song too.

Cool songs. Great lyrics.

Rose, Mission Of One have lyrics that touched my hear deeply.

His time with Him that stopped;
its time for Him to carry out His Father’s will.
He said He’d drink this cup.
He’s told them all along that He would go;
they could not follow Him,
but He’ll be back for them my friend.
And now He sweats these drops of blood
and He prays “take this cup from Me”
but He knows there’s no other way.
His Father’s will, He said He’d take your sin,
your shame, your place upon that cross of pain and die for you.
There’s no way to repay all the pain he went hrough for you.
His reason- simply his love. Its time to see the truth-
understand there’s nothing you can do.
His reason- is simply you.
It was all for, it was all for you.
He bled and died for you.
We live by grace through faith alone with Jesus Christ
who died to set us free through change; our flesh can give.
You know that even if you were the only one He died for,
that means only your sins drove the nails.
There’s no way to repay all the pain He went through for you.
His reason- simply His love. Its time to see the truth-
understand there’s nothing you can do. His reason- is simply you.
It was all for, it was all for you. He bled and died for you.
It was all for, it was all for you. He bled and He died for you.
No time to hesitate my friend. No time to second guess His love.
There’s nothing else that you can do. He already gave it all for you.
All for you. All for you. All for you. All for you. Simply you.


-Jonah33

This is one of my favorite Theocracy songs, and the lyrics have meant a lot to me...

At the center of my heart there sits a throne
That the rightful occupant's not always
free to call His own
For how can I give the King
His place of worth above all else
When I spend my time striving
to place the crown upon myself?

Battle cry, to engage
for the war, set the stage
and armies march and kings arise
for the choice, the time has come
mine or thy will be done?
and the pain reflects in holy eyes
for the will to obey
for the night to the day
and the seasons change and rulers die
not of flesh, not of men
wage the war deep within
on and on uit rages undenied

I TAKE MY CROWN AND CAST IT DOWN
CASTLES BURNING
CASTLES BURNING
LEARN TO GROW, GROW TO BE
A FLESH AND BLOOD THEOCRACY
TO TAKE THE LOSS AND BEAR THE CROSS
RAISE THE KINGDOM
RAISE THE KINGDOM
BURN AWAY ALL IVE BEEN
TO RESURRECT THEOCRACY WITHIN

and the would-be rulers of my heart
that I place upon the throne
each lead the kingdom of my life to ruin
to bring every though into submission
to tear the idols down
is to break the chains, to rearrange,
to give the king his crown

I TAKE MY CROWN AND CAST IT DOWN
CASTLES BURNING
CASTLES BURNING
LEARN TO GROW, GROW TO BE
A FLESH AND BLOOD THEOCRACY
TO TAKE THE LOSS AND BEAR THE CROSS
RAISE THE KINGDOM
RAISE THE KINGDOM
BURN AWAY ALL IVE BEEN
TO RESURRECT THEOCRACY WITHIN

Rather, use me to be your hands down here
a mirror to reflect your glory into hurting eyes
and let me see the world with vision clear
and not through selfishness and lies
for if I am consumed with my own cares
what right have I to speak the words
Thy Kingdom Come?
And if I am consumed with my own will,
what right to pray Thy Will Be Done?

As all round me I see bleeding souls
please give me strength to never pass them idly by
and as the angry storm clouds start to roll
may they see comfort in my eyes
for just as you are full of love
the same to others you have called me to be
and by the covenant of grace above and below
within our souls: theocracy

I TAKE MY CROWN AND CAST IT DOWN
CASTLES BURNING
CASTLES BURNING
LEARN TO GROW, GROW TO BE
A FLESH AND BLOOD THEOCRACY
TO TAKE THE LOSS AND BEAR THE CROSS
RAISE THE KINGDOM
RAISE THE KINGDOM
BURN AWAY ALL IVE BEEN
TO RESURRECT THEOCRACY WITHIN

Thanks. I enjoy reading favorite lyrics of songs even if I already know the song.

The splinters on my feet
(well) as I pushed against the tree
to catch the last breath of my life

My mother stood in front
and my father's up above
and way down below there's my blood

I shed my blood for you
so you could see what you mean
I shed my blood so you could come and be with me
I shed my blood for you
so you could see what you mean
I shed my blood so you didn't have to hang on this tree
I shed my blood so you didn't have to hang on this tree

The sky is turning black
(well) and I hear the lightning crack
from a thousand miles away he feels my pain

All the stripes upon my back
(well) I can still hear the whip crack
oh, things are never going to be the same

I shed my blood for you
so you can see what you mean
I shed my blood so you can come and be with me
I shed my blood for you
so you can see what you mean
I shed my blood so you didn't have to hang on this tree

I shed my blood for you
and you can see what you mean
I shed my blood so you can come and be with me

I shed my blood for you
so you can see what you mean
I shed my blood so you didn't have to hang on this tree
I shed my blood so you can come and be with me

"Blood" by Knoteye


I know the things I did were not right
the Holy Spirit convicted my mind
and heart so strong I thought I would die
until I asked and he did not deny

Please forgive me and take control
The blood of Jesus cleansed my soul

He is the way, He is the truth and the life
You can't see the Father without the light
By way of the cross He came
and for our souls his life he gave

Come unto me and I'll take control
The blood of Jesus cleansed my soul
He cleansed my soul yeah
He cleansed my soul

Those who seek to save their life shall lose it
To lose your life for my sake
You will be saved
You will be saved yeah
You will be saved

Now these days that I wait and labor
shall not be in vain how I long for my savior
These chains I've worn no longer can bind
Glory to God His Son is alive

He said come unto me and I'll take control
The blood of Jesus cleansed my soul
He cleansed my soul yeah
He cleansed my soul

He cleansed my soul yeah
He cleansed my soul

"The Blood of Jesus" by Place of Skulls

I wanted to open this old thread. I love the lyrics of Russ Taff. A line from Farther On pops into my head all the time, and, just listened to it tonight on my mp3player.

I hear you have a soft spot
for fools and little children
and, I'm glad
cause' Iv'e been both of those

(Listening to Steve Taylor, wanted to post this)
Written Guarantee

Nothing happens when you're counting the cost
you fill the basket when the bread gets tossed
castaway upon the waterfront
step right in and take whatever you want

It's a written guarantee
when I give it up to you
you give it back to me
It's a written guarantee
when I give it up to you
you give it back to me

Full of feelings that I couldn't afford
till I up and threw my heart overboard
take it all 'cause I remember when
I lost my life so you could find it again

It's a written guarantee
when I give it up to you
you give it back to me
Who is gonna disagree
when I give it up to you
you give it back to me

Nothing happens when I'm counting the cost
you fill the basket when the bread gets tossed

Whitecross - Walk with Me

Julie, my child
Why do you run
Why have you turned away from me


You say it's hard
To live perfectly
And all you can see
Is how you fail me constantly
You fail me constantly


My blood has cleansed you
Your sins are remembered no more
So come on, and walk with me


Julie, my child
I've set you free
For I want you to be with me eternally


I love you so
I want you to know
That I'm the one who's callin' you home
Callin' you home
Callin' you home


My blood has cleansed you
Your sins are remembered no more
So come on, and walk with me




Endless Funeral - Sin Bearer


Rejected by the hearts of so many
They refused to admit His deity
No mercy accorded to the Holy
"Crucify!" It was their only plea


Yet He rose from the dead on the third day
All were in shock, disbelief and dismay
He then proved that He was God above
Resurrection from the dead, from the grave


He bored our sins, yes He bored our afflictions
Yet He was pure, the essence of perfection
He took our pain so we could be forgiven
Trust Him today to be with Him in heaven


So don't delay, don't wait up for tomorrow
Eternity doesn't need any sorrow
Give up your life to the One who can heal
Open up wide, all of this is for real!



Endless Funeral - Reconciliation


Breaking the wall
He paid the price
Giving His life
That we might live

Through His grace
We are saved
Through His wounds
We are healed
Through His death
We have life
We have peace and
We are free!


He was stricken
For our faults
Bore our sins
On the cross

Took it all
In His love
That we might be
Reconciled!



Jesus the King
Came to serve
God in the flesh
He loves us so

Through His grace
We are saved
Through His wounds
We are healed
Through His death
We have life
We have peace and
We are free!


He was stricken
For our faults
Bore our sins
On the cross

Took it all
In His love
That we might be
Reconciled!



Endless Funeral - The Choice

Is peace what you long for?
To come back to the shore?
There is hope for the poor
To Jesus you can moor


His hand is what you need
For He'll forever feed
And never to depart
From that place in your heart

There is a love so true
Given by God to you
But if you don't believe
How will you then receive?

Why waste another day?
For you will pass away
Will you be swept away
On that true Judgement Day?


You will return to clay
But will you walk astray?
Will you ignore the life
And walk the road of strife?


Now is the time to choose
Either to win or lose
Enter the narrow gate
Before it is too late


Come to Him as you are
Lost, restless, full of scars
He will destroy the pain
Your life is not in vain!
Maybe you are in doubt
Insecure, you want out
Let Jesus fill your heart
You're in for a new start!

Narnia - Trapped in This Age

I'm tired and frustrated
Standing at the crossroad
Which one is the right?
It's hard to choose the right way
Listening to my heart's voice
But I can't hear the words, no!

Dazed and confused
My mind is black

Chasing for fame
Chasing for fortune
Trapped in this race
Want a quick solution
Chasing for love and confirmation
Trapped in this age

When I was younger
I knew all the answers
Everything was alright
It was easy living and no responsibility
For me and my life

You see my wounded soul
Hear my silent cry
I pray to you I don't wanna die
You know my sorrow
You know my sins
I'm afraid I don't wanna die

You see my wounded soul
You hear my silent cry
I pray, I pray, I pray to you



My Silent Wake - SHADOW OF SORROW

As the last autumn leaves are falling
Blackened skies yield rain, has the sun disappeared?
Another winter descends like dying hope
Let me see through it all that you're still near

Oh Lord
Never let me lose hope

If I stumble in the shadow of sorrow
Will you lift me, will you carry me through the years?
If the weight of the world brings me down to my knees
Will I feel you dry my bitter tears?

Oh Lord
I need to see you through my tears
Never let me lose hope

Lead me through, lead me on
lead me over the gates to a new tomorrow

In the days of disillusionment
Frustration and discontent
In the hours of doubt and disbelief
Days of mourning and of grief

Oh Lord
On the edge of the depths of despair
Never let me lose hope

Hear my cries!
Desperate hands reach out to you
Washed in tears of pain
In these eyes, remain the shadows of yesterday
Will you steal them away?

Hear my cries
Desperate hands reach out to you
You who suffered pain
In my mind, I see the weight that fell on you
To bring me home again

Give me hope again

Thanks for that MSW song. Lucky for me, Bombworks had it on their site so I can play it on my show.

NP, those lyrics always hit me, as most of MWS songs do.

and onto another good song I keep listening too.

Majestic Vanguard - Emotions of a Picture

If one day remains
and the truth is to end the glory,
What picture will you paint this day
If you fall into sleep, endless pain
Wake up the sirens will scream your name

You will lose your soul
and self-control
Not even pictures can cover that pain

The scene on the screen
temptations of healing ages
The witch has now become your mate
But the light in her eye is a fake
One day she will burn and receive her fate

You must make a choice
to which cross will you bow,
only you can decide your own fate

Hail to the King
Hail the keeper of the key
Hail to the King
Hail to the King

I know a place,
with You I belong
Let the millennium come
The shine will be
a journey to see
In the morning days
I won’t be afraid

In the morning days
when the sun arises
I will see your face
and my life will never die

You travel in time
to temples of death and glory
In which temple will you pray one day
Can’t you see victory pays a price
Stop trembling and listen to my advice

I have made my choice
I will pray to the cross,
with the sign of a wounded lamb

So just listen to me
through Christ you’ll be free
Paint your picture in Gods holy hand

Endless,
When will those songs of your's be recorded?

this my favorite lyrics to a song called

No one else nows - building 429



My world is closing in
On the inside
But I’m not showing it
When all I am is crying out
I hold it in and fake a smile
Still I’m broken
I’m broken
Only one can understand
And only one can hold the hand
Of the broken
Of the broken

When no one else knows how I feel
Your love for me is proven real
When no one else cares where I’ve been
You run to me with outstretched hands
And You hold me in your arms
Again

I need no explanation of why me
I just need confirmation
Only You could understand the emptiness inside my head
I am falling
I am falling
I’m falling down upon my knees
To find the one who gives me peace
I am flying
Lord I am flying

When no one else knows how I feel
Your love for me is proven real
When no one else cares where I’ve been
You run to me with outstretched hands
And You hold me in Your arms
Again

I have come to you in search of faith
Cause I can’t see beyond this place
Oh You are God and I am man
So I’ll leave it in Your hands

Cool. I enjoy these lyrics. I recognize most of the bands, but that doesn't mean that I have ever heard them....so, I enjoy them .
