this glass embrace - sleepers, awake! lyrics
{verse 1]
these moments frighten me the most
is there anything more horrible than the notion of forever?
the very ground a sick and sinking ship
the prayer you left behind you
becomes a mantra on my lips
“our father, hallowed be your name…”
“yours is the kingdom and the glory…”
could there be words more pure than this?
[chorus]
and when i lie, i speak my native tongue
but i am not my own, i’m not
i am a price that has been paid
i have been ransomed, i have been saved
cut off the hand that makes me sin
remove these thoughts, don’t let me let them in
“you are a man of god, now act like it.”
[verse 2]
my very doubts fill me with doubt
can a so-called man of faith be so afraid, and yet devout?
but if christ himself can beg you from the cross
asking, “my god, why have you forsaken me?”
then all hope must not be lost for one like me
oh thomas, tell me please… what did you see?
what did you see?
[chorus]
and when i lie, i speak my native tongue
but i am not my own, i’m not
i am a price that has been paid
i have been ransomed, i have been saved
cut off the hand that makes me sin
remove these thoughts, don’t let me let them in
“you are a man of god, now act like it.”
[bridge]
but i am selfish, i am weak
i am a bruised and bitter seed
i am a poor reflection, an echo of your love
i am brightness stained by dark
i harbor hate inside my heart
then fingers crossed
i turn and ask you to forgive me
i am selfish, i am weak
i am a bruised and bitter seed
i am a poor reflection, an echo of your love
i am brightness stained by dark
i harbor hate inside my heart
then fingers crossed
i turn and ask you to forgive me
[chorus: matt lefevers and jackie lefevers]
i am selfish, i am weak
and when i lie, i speak my native tongue
i am a bruised and bitter seed
but i am not my own, i’m not
i am a poor reflection, an echo of your love
i am a price that has been paid
i have been ransomed, i have been saved
i am brightness stained by dark
cut off the hand that makes me sin
i harbor hate inside my heart
remove these thoughts, don’t let me let them in
then fingers crossed, i turn and ask you to forgive me
“you are a man of god, now act like it.”
now act like it
