I never knew your peace
and look at me now
I didn't know life would cease
and you never told me how
this place is so real
all I can do is cry
pain is all I feel
I didn't know your savior died
You saw yourself as good
I see you as greedy
you lived as you should
but you didn't speak to the needy
you've squandered your wealth
now I'm down to lunatic raves
your Bible was on the shelf
along with the hope of He who saves
I remember talks late at night
and conversations on the phone
I didn't have a guiding light
you left me on my own
the pain is so intense
this didn't have to be my fate
but I will speak in your defense
your new life sure looks great
Grinding teeth and painful cries
welcome to my world
when were you going to try
to tell me of your Lord?
What's it like when
the ones you loved
hate your very being?
What's it like knowing
it's your pain I'm feeling?

**NEW
Rhyme in C major
Every second that goes by
and eery breath that is taken
we can never deny
that we won't be shaken
one day closer to forever
oh Lord I'm coming hom
you taught me to say never
and not to let my heart roam
Everyday that will pass
with every sight that I see
we'll have to act fast
while we still hold the key
how will they hear
if we don't use our voice
how can we cheer
if they make the wrong choice
can I bring them to You
if I don't believe in me?
can I show them the truth
if I myself can't see?
one day closer to you
oh Lord strengthen me

BLIND MAN AND THE CHRISTIAN -written by justin adams and also james bradley
Blind
Man:
Everyday is the same as the last
No color in my world
I remember what is was like in the past
But now it is all black
I could look back on what has happened
And curse every living thing
For why was I the one that went blind
While everyone else can see
I went to an art gallery today
Had them try to explain the art me
But its just not the same
To stand infront of a picture that i cant see
And have everyone say how beautiful they all are
While I see black
But to me now I wouldn't want it any other way
For i can
And will
See one day
Christian:
A tear drop falls
the moment is lost
destiny calls at the highest cost
a cry in the night
a desperate plee
walk in the light
make it all you see
I cry for you
in all your pain
I pray for you
to see again
you may be blind
in the physical world
but your sight you'll find
when you walk with the lord
no one needs sight
to know the power of him,
in all his might
everyone's sight is dim.
Blind Man:
But darkness is what i see
That it is what i have
For there is no joy in me
But I will give you a chance
For light is what i want to see
and to feel true love around me
For i am hollow
I have become quite ashamed
Of this affliction that i have
To not see is bitter sorrow
When beauty surrounds me
But i will not give up now
Just not yet
I will give you a chance
and see where i get
For sight might go
but your love you say stays
Christian:
Walk in God's hand
and I promise you this
next to him you'll stand
and your sight won't be missed
I guess I envy you
because you can't see
the people evil do
or the sin that's a part of me
tell me what's wrong
with this world here
that makes me long
for an end to my fear
what I want you to know
is that life goes on
your disability is your biggest foe
fight it before everything's gone
those who don't know the light
need to have a guide
you don't need physical sight
to bring them to his side.
Blind Man:
I will do as you say
For what do I have to risk?
If he’s not real
Then all I do is die
But if I am wrong
Then I must pay
But I wish to see you
No matter who you are
For it would be such bliss
Even though I am blind
I sin and have my faults
And even though I might be blind
I can still see the faults of man
I still have my fears
More then most I must say
For what can I do?
When someone needs me
For my eyes can help me
I feel my way where I go
And wish for the grave sometimes
But I fear death more than life
For what if God is real
And Heaven and Hell are to
I know that Hell would be mine
For I don’t know the God
That you speak of
Please tell me more
For I want to know him
And have the hope that you have

EVIL EYES
Dark
eyes come from the night
slowly following out of sight
waiting for the sign to bind
and strike terror into the mind
Dark eyes are watching you
waiting til their time is due
hating every breath you take
loathing every step you make
Dark eyes are coming to attack
look around and watch your back
no mercy from those eyes
no protection from your lies
prepare for the fight ahead
it'll be like nothing ever said
your life is what's at stake
and your fate you have to take
dark eyes are our doom
their time is coming soon
your evil is a seed
on that, dark eyes do feed
----------
TWO-FACED MIND
Think you know
think they care
all they show
is what they want you to hear
think you have a friend
but then you will find
they're not there in the end
that's a two-faced mind
Like you when you're near
hate you when you're not
you will never see
and they're never caught
just go with the lord
and ignore the friends you lack
go on your own accord
and you won't get stabbed in the back
don't try to be someone you're not
be happy with your own kind
friends like that can only be bought
because that's a two-faced mind
don't need them
they're in the way
identity is so dim
the group moves on today
wonder if they laugh
wonder if they cheer
now that I've taken a path
that leads away from here
guess I'll never know
since reputations no longer bind
won't ever let it show
cause that's a two-faced mind
