Revived

I have danced as a saint
Though with secret slumbered steps
Danced as the light glowed faint
Sang praises with thou tongue
And carried my heart of stone
Creeping disguised in the shadows
Near to His mighty throne
Where salvation was upon my skin
And darkness shed my true being
Weakened at my knees I wept
My soul longing for everlasting freeing
At the feet of a Savior
Who upon, I did scoff and spit
Wrath poured out in my place
I, a forgiven hypocrite.

Perception

Once upon a broken dream
Same story it would seem
Days of grey and hollow
No Future to even follow
When all seemed but a loss
Appeared before me a Cross
Hard stone melted to flesh
Strength was renewed afresh
Hope alive and came to boil
A power Sin couldn’t spoil
Life so heavy, I’m weak
Yet, blessed are the meek
Broken dream not broke
That moment I awoke
Alive and aware to my sin
N’ver to dream broken again
