The Bastardisation

How the hell did you get me on my knees
Praying to an idol that doesn’t believe
In the Lord I serve
I see an obstacle and I swerve
Out of their flight path
And it is not the God of wrath
That has sway
It is Love that will win the day
As everything unfolds
And fields of gold
Never seem to arise
Because I watch what dies
Rise
Again to break the chain
Of thinking we live only under the rain
Of a cloud that pours
Through out open doors
And even a crack is enough to let the light in
And something broke when I met him
I could feel the plummet anchor down
And now he knows who runs this town
When all the anarchy has subsided
And the Jesus you derided
Is a fortress deep and strong
I place my foot on air and I can do no wrong
As I take a leap of faith
Into the space, beyond the hate
What does it mean to be grown
I look at the chains that have flown
Away from the land we discover
It is more than lover to lover
It is consciousness recognising itself
In the cards that life has dealt
Did you see the star
Through the melted prison bar
That just seemed to go away
Because the confinement just cannot stay
Not in all this open grass
I promise that my heart will last
Far past the beating in my chest
You kiss the gate, I’ll do the rest
