Common Yet Forbidden

Still We Remain

Common Yet Forbidden


thousands will fall
ten thousands shall pass away at my side
all worlds collapse
but still we remain

glory
to the living God
praises be to the eternal one
who upholds me with His righteous hands
destroy the evil in me
pound it to dust
pour it out as my blood in the streets
these are my enemies

multitudes
in the valley of decision
decide this day whom you shall serve
if the darkness alive
follow
if God be God
decide
in the valley of decision
the blood will flow more freely than rain
grace and redemption
or drown with the dead

i bow before
and offer all that i am
for i have nothing to give
worthy of a king

i tremble close
and sing to you a new song
of all you have done
the beautiful one
the beautiful one

thousands will fall
ten thousands shall pass away
for their hearts are cold
how hearts of stone
shall break

no hope for the future
no hope for the future
we give our lives away
hearts of stone shall break

oh my God
who formed the earth
and set the stars in the sky
we are your beloved
and so we sing to you

hallelujah
glory and praises in the highest
