THE LITTLE THINGS THAT GIVE YOU AWAY


The night gave you a song 
A light had been turned on 
But no one says, ‘Where is God my Maker, who gives songs in the night" Job 35:10 NIV

By day the Lord directs his love, at night his song is with me — a prayer to the God of my life. Psalm 42:8 NIV

I remembered my songs in the night. Psalm 77:6 NIV
I'm not a ghost now 
I can see you 
You need to see me 
Jesus: "Look at my hands and my feet. It is I myself! Touch me and see; a ghost does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have." Luke 24:39 NIV
But this freedom it might cost you your liberty
God has called you to a free life.... don’t use this freedom as an excuse to do whatever you want to do and destroy your freedom.... (for) where will your precious freedom be then? Galatians 5:13-15 MSG
It's the little things that give you away 
The words you cannot say 
Your big mouth in the way 
I saw you on the stairs 
You didn't notice I was there
That's cause you were talking at me and not to me 
You were high above the storm 
A hurricane being born
But this freedom it might cost you your liberty

Sometimes I can't believe my existence 
See myself from a distance 
I can't get back inside 
Sometimes the air is so anxious 
All my thoughts are so reckless
And all of my innocence has died 
Sometimes I wake at four in the morning 
Where all the darkness is swarming 
And it covers me in fear 

Sometimes I’m full of anger and grieving 
So far away from believing 
That any sun will reappear 

Sometimes 
The end is not coming 
It's not coming 
The end is here 
Sometimes 

Sometimes
When the painted glass shatters 
and you’re the only thing matters
but I can see through the tears
Sometimes
The end is not coming
it’s not coming
The end is here
Sometimes
