When will deliverance come?
How much more must we endure?
When will this suffering end?
Or will we escape with our lives?
Where is mercy, where is justice?
Can you hear me?
Tell me we are not alone
I don't know how much longer I can go on

Father to the orphan
Friend of the forgotten
You found me on the ruins
Orphaned by the horrors of war
You became my father
To see me through it all
You're the comfort in a death camp
Grace in the presence of slaughter
A contradiction to this hell on earth
Who am I
That you would sacrifice it all?
I was dealt a cruel hand
But you needn't partake in my sorrow
You should have walked away to save yourself
You stood beside me
Fearless
A love greater than death
From this live till the next
You have been my shelter
Never once abandoned
You walked with me
My brothers
My sisters
Beyond deaths door
Into the chamber
You were the first
You had every chance to leave yet you remained
When they came bearing fear
You told us stories of joy
You chose death with the orphan over your freedom
When everything went quiet and cold,
Your embrace was all that I knew
A Greater love has no man than this
Than he who would lay down his life for me
A beautiful reflection of The Life
The Life I'm yet to see
When I awake I'll see you standing there
With the same smile you my father
Were always so glad to bear
Comfort in a death camp
Grace in the presence of slaughter
A contradiction to this hell on earth

I'll take this to my grave
Give me the gift of martyrdom
Be it in the wilderness
Or in an ivory casket
May my bitter resolve resonate through your conscious
May my legacy be of whom you couldn't silence
Alive or dead I am at peace
Alive or dead I am eternal
I find purpose at the completion of this mortal stage
Before I transcend I'll scar the earth immortalized in history's page
Death is nothing but a means of my message
Blot me from this earth and I'll reign in the next
Cut out my tongue and my voice will soar through the ages
This is where I depart the earth as a servant
I'll return as a king
Nothing in the sky above or in the earth below, will sever me from my God
So come pain, come war for I have seen, what's yet to be
I am called to royalty, and I'll take this to my grave
When I wake
I will see my saviors face
When I wake
I'll see this world fade away
When I wake
I will see my saviors face
When i wake

In All Honesty

On the edge of this life I find myself
With little but sorrow
I've done much wrong to undo
With no time left
No tomorrow
Fallen is your servant
Hypocrite is the only title
Worthy of my name
I have dragged your name through the mire of human filth
I have spread the hate of which you so clearly condemned
My tongue has sowed devastation
And bested the devil in my haenous pride
Show me the light that's within because I don't believe it's there
Why do you waste your time?
Why do you pursue who is unworthy?
I neither have the strength or resolve to go on
I'm done with this life
What was it's purpose?
Give me peace or give me rest
Am I too blind to see?
To see Your leading?
Where are You?
I've begged for a flood yet only found a fleeting vapour
How am I to thrive on dust?
After all I've done
My time is ending
I've begged for a flood yet only found a fleeting vapour
How am I to thrive on dust?
After all I've done
Am I more than what I've done?
My Captain, my King
Are You silent?
Or is Your voice falling upon deaf ears?
I know the destination
But not the road
Tell me which way to go
I hear a voice
But I can't make out the words
Is this a trial?
Is this a test?
Give me something to hold onto
Give me a foothold
Give me an anchor
Give me a harbor
Give me shelter
Give me eyes to see beyond what vision permits
Give me faith to endure
I grow bitter
In this house of desolation
Possessed of too many faults to care
My spirit grows weary
I've witnessed too many sorrows to bare
I know this war is Yours
Yet I have not the faith too see this through
God help my unbelief
I know this war is Yours
God help my unbelief

The Comforter

Before you saw your first dawn
Before the air entered your lungs
I knew who you were
I knew who you would become
With every fearful step
Each dark day
I was right beside you
Every precious tear
Your times of grief
I felt your anguish
I'll hold onto you,
When your mortal frame gives way
Peace I give to you,
When all you know is torment
When your cries reverberate through the skies,
They will never go unheard
Regret, sorrow, decay
All these things will pass away
I am with you at your nadir
Know this time with fade
Reach out ascend from the mire
Let your wounds dissolve
How precious you are
Nobel inheritor
Claim your crown
How precious you are
Nobel inheritor
Claim your crown
From this day
Providence until paradise
