Cain
05:04

From the flock came the lamb
From the field came the grain
Abel offered his gift in faith
There was something lacking there with Cain
The Lord did not regard him or his gift
And Cain came back in a furious fit
From the Lord came patience
From the Gracious One came reason
What use to me is your sugar cane
When your heart is consumed with treason?
Sin is crouching at your door, you’ve got to master it
Before it eats you alive
If you do what is right, don’t you know you’ll be accepted?
Offer worship with reverence and awe
The prayer of the upright one will never be rejected
Righteousness and justice worthy of the call
The rule of God is so annoying
A pious live is just too boring
God should just accept me the way I am
This talk of faith, I’m sick of it
My brother’s such a hypocrite
I’ll kill that goody-goody perfect little lamb
From the ground came cries of blood
From the murder came a curse
The ground will never give it’s yield
You’ll wander restlessly upon the earth
Outside of the presence of the Lord
In that cold, lawless land
If you do what is right, don’t you know you’ll be accepted?
Offer worship with reverence and awe
The prayer of the upright one will never be rejected
Righteousness and justice worthy of the call

I'm getting back all of the things I deserve for the things I did
Selfish and wasteful, I blew it all, and I'm sitting eating with the pigs
So I'll turn back to my father
I'm not worthy to be called your son
I'm coming to my senses
I'm coming home
I'm getting back all of the things I deserve
For all the people I've caused pain
Thief and a mocker, I scorned it all
Left me twisting as I hang
So I'm turning now to Jesus
Forgive me please
When you come into your kingdom
Remember me
Turn, repent
Humble yourself before him
Confess, believe
Trust him with all your heart
I'm getting back all of the things I deserve
For all the things I've done
Selfish and wasteful, I blew it all
And everything's gone wrong
So I'm turning to my father
I'm not worthy to be called your son
I'm coming to my senses
I'm coming home
I'm turning to you, Jesus
Forgive me please
Could you find a place for me, Lord?
I believe
Have mercy on this sinner
You called a son
Would you use me for your glory?
I'm coming home
I'm turning now to Jesus
Remember me, please remember me
Would you use me for your glory
Lord, I believe
Have mercy on me, Jesus
I'm not worthy
Would you find a place for me, Lord?
Remember me
Yes, I believe

Cotton Poly Blend

Here we are again, knees to the floor
Honey, we’ve been here several times before
That locked-up feeling, man in a cage
Do you think I really have what it takes to re-engage
I don’t know
Here I am again, busting at the seams
Behind the wheel wondering what everything even means
I need some faith eyes, need some release
Cuz I cannot fit into the world no matter how I squeeze
You tend to stretch me when I shrink
Through the tension open up and let me breathe
Your gentle softness, my truest friend
Like a cotton poly blend
You act so leisurely when I’m uptight
You’ve got the faith I need to carry on and fight
You rub my shoulders, loosen my tie
And now I’m rolling up my sleeves
You give me all the reasons why
You tend to stretch me when I shrink
Through the tension open up and let me breathe
Your gentle softness, my truest friend
Like a cotton poly blend
If I were scared that our thoughts would not align
I wouldn’t share with you the trappings of my mind
Out of my depth with tightened chest
And falling out of step, I’m falling out of step
You tend to stretch me when I shrink
Through the tension open up and let me breathe
Your gentle softness, my truest friend
Like a cotton poly blend

There's a Ram
04:38
|

There's a ram on the blind side of the mountain
It is hidden from the slope that you must climb
It ascends by mysterious appointment
Ever moving toward the fullness of God's time
There's a ram, hallelujah!
There's a ram in God's time
God is faithful do not fear to climb up that mountain
There's a ram climbing up the other side
Abraham found the ram when he was tested
As he reached the altar where his faith was tried
You will see at the summit of God's purpose
His provision climbing up the other side
There's a ram, hallelujah!
There's a ram in God's time
God is faithful do not fear to climb up that mountain
There's a ram climbing up the other side
God may wait until your Isaac is surrendered
He may wait until the knife is in your hand
God is faithful! Do not fear to climb the mountain
When you see the ram your heart will understand
There's a ram, hallelujah!
There's a ram in God's time
God is faithful do not fear to climb up that mountain
There's a ram climbing up the other side
