Verse 1
Oh my child, why did no one help you be set free?
Or was it the fact that they themselves were misinformed of me?
As I sent the many, few have came back; empty and drained
As they stay spiritually fat, heavy and sloth, and greed devours
Chorus
Look into my eyes
You will never lie to me
I am the omnipotent God
That you can’t even fathom in your dreams
Verse 2
My disciple and son, did I not give you proof of faith?
I grew the mountains and the trees and raised the clouds and the sea
And let you reign over them
As sin crept in the world, your kind invited it all in
Now, you suffer and die
And with all that known, I chose to have you as my own
A covenant in blood
Chorus
Look into my eyes
You will never lie to me
I am the omnipotent God
That you can’t even fathom in your dreams
Verse 3
Death’s door is always knocking
Constantly beating you
Submitting to its lasting hunger
Rotting from the inside out
Like a cancer spreading
A parasite of your blood
Chorus
The voices were always too loud
You could never find peace
This whole time peace was calling your name
Verse 4
Blind, deaf, and dumb
I am not without compassion
I scream in heart break
Mourning the loss of you
Though I know you’re home

Your work was not done
The loss of your body
Will greatly affect those you love
Love
An absence of light
Is in your corner of the world
You show as bright as any star
Clothed in the beauty of
My Son’s blood
Covering you in all righteousness
It is not your work I have judged you by
But My own
Verse 5
Perhaps you will remember this story
As all time became frozen
A tear shoots down the old church’s veil
And the dead rose from their graves
The most beautiful love and soul
Was sent to die for you
