heavens hush
donkeys bray
children cried
mockers jeered

the road to perdition
the road to life
who would had thought
from such blood springs such life

totality
enormity
a love so big
my soul feels cut

my disbelief
my shame
oh to face the One
who called me by name

walking on
chin kept high
weariness begone!
i try my life

at the foot of the tree
i face it all
fulity of ambitions
starkness of salvation

i learn grace
i learn hope
i learn faith
i learn paradoxes

of weakness and strength
of poverty and wealth
of a battle won yet fighting still
of my dual citizenship

words fail me and yet i try
lest i forget the lessons to learn
for every tear from me you keep
for how i stand strong even when i'm weak

Jesus
My everything
