Album: The Advent Of A Miracle (1997)Advent Of A Miracle
You're my beloved and all together lovely
As a gift that can't be bought, as if gold could favor outweigh
Your meaning to me, the secrets of the heart made manifest
Even beauty's priced beside thee, proportioned by lot the less
Wishes fade, dreams break, promise made
Takes away your will, takes your whole heart captive
Just for one promise, sell it all for one true word
To hold on to, face the shame of it all
Safer to neglect, than open your callused heart
Piece by piece, you have lost a part of your self
You share to gain but lose at love and learn to hate yourself
More and More each day and all the days thereafter
They labor to put back together and regain what is gone forever
Wishes fade, as dreams break, promise made, tomorrow takes
The most costly mistake is to try to change the past today
The filth and the shame, they all wash away
For you Christ will clean the slate
Only love can fill the void, when the world has taken it's toll
Hand in hand, by your side, we'll walk down this path together
I'll take you to the place where promises will never break
To the advent
To the advent
To the advent of a miracle
True love is to die for and is why I cry, for you
And the pain you feel and feed can heal
If you'd just walk with me toward the light
