Unless

( Psm. 116)

Where in the midst of despair have you gone
Never recalling the battle you’ve won
Trying and trying to hide all the pain
Countlessly hearing Him call at your name, Unless
Never again will you put up a fight
Your mind is to clouded to conquer the night
The snap of a finger will never undo
The wall you’ve constructed embedded in you, Unless

Unless there’s a part of your heart that’s been left uncold

Unless there’s a dream deep inside that’s been left untold

Accompanied by the crowd, that is leaving you crying out loud

Forever lost in the depths of sin is the treasure you hold.

Unless

Why by the blinding deceit have you turned

Only unknowingly placed to be burned

With scales on your eyes and a mask on your face

You’ll never return to His gentle embrace, Unless

Your peace and your hope and your love remain bound

The life once transformed and made clean

Is left to conform and will never be seen, Unless

Unless you, listen to that quiet voice in your ear

Unless you, set aside your ever doubt and fear

Unless you, give Him every burden, ball and chain

Unless you, open up your, open up your mind

Open up your mouth and call on His name.
