lyrics

Caught up in the same refrain of:
meet me in the silence of the morning.
See how downcast it makes me, dear,
to say with no good reason
I would rather stay right here.
So sing to the Most High,
when you are moved to pray no other way tonight.
And sing of this splendid sight,
a picture of the Mighty Word
whispered in light.
Measures try to steal and sell,
they’re minding all the science of living holy well.
Many roads are true and fair,
still, why does this one way seldom lead me over there?
Chasing sanctity
in a dream, in a chord.
Fade into empathy,
all the walls into doors.
