Song 8

Years

Description

Once I'd struggled to the summit of heaven
I saw pilgrims had founded a shrine
To seekers who had traveled before me,
And a further off mountain to climb.

The journey started early.
Arrival may seem late.
I follow where God's leading
Instead of guessing dates.

While some denied
The other side,
Years
At last have passed
And set me on my way.
How can it be
It's taken me
Years
To gain what they attained
In a day?

The Holy Spirit Glory
Waits to beacon through.
Transparency is power
When Jesus lives in you.

Instead of hero combat,
Surrender proved the key.
Instead of just an island,
I flowed into God's sea.

While some denied
The other side,
Years
At last have passed
And set me on my way.
How can it be
It's taken me
Years
To gain what they attained
In a day?

Instead of sailing out to stars
The Savior waits to break the bars
You've built to jail your soul.
Instead of fighting foreign wars
The Savior knocks upon the door
That hides the hole in your heart.

Unless a seed is planted it will spend its days alone.
My first move is to yank my vain ambitions from the throne.
The pride of life is lethal when it waxes up your wings.
The highest wisdom rises up to bow before the King.

While some denied
The other side,
Years
At last have passed
And set me on my way.
How can it be
It's taken me
Years
To gain what they attained
In a day?

Watch and pray.
