A Spiritual House
02:33
|
|

|
We are not islands
Whatever brings you down
Will also have
An effect me
We are all members
Of the same body
We are joined together
Under the same Head
Like living stones
We are being built
Into a spiritual house
Let us not
Lose connection
With the head
Who is Christ
From whom the whole body
Supported and held together
By its ligaments and sinews
Grows as God causes it to grow
Whatever hardship
You are going through
Is of concern
For me, too
I am here to help you
You’re here to lift me up
We are not alone
We have each other to rely on
Like living stones
We are being built
Into a spiritual house

The Deep Waters
02:53
|
|
||
|
Save me, O God
For the waters have come up to my neck
I sink in the miry depths
Where there is no foothold
I am worn out calling for help
My throat is parched
My eyes fail
Looking for my God
Those who hate me without reason
Outnumber the hairs of my head
Many are my enemies without cause
Those who seek to destroy me
I am forced to restore
What I did not steal
You, God, know my folly
My guilt’s not hidden from you
Lord, the Lord Almighty
May those who hope in you
Not be disgraced because of me
For I endure scorn for your sake
And shame covers my face
I am a stranger to my brothers
A stranger to my own mother’s sons
For zeal for your house consumes me
And the insults of those who insult you
Fall on me
I am the song of the drunkards
But I pray to you, Lord,
In the time of your favor
In your great love, O God
Answer me with your sure salvation
Rescue me from the mire
Do not let me sink
Deliver me from those who hate me
From the deep waters
Answer me, Lord
Out of the goodness of your love
In your great mercy
Turn to me

Children Of God
02:32
|
|
||
|
We are children of God
That is what we are
The reason the world does not know us
Is that it did not know him
Now we are children of God
And what we will be has not yet been made known
But we know
That when Christ appears
We shall be like him
For we shall see him as he is
All who have this hope in him
Purify themselves
Just as he is pure
Everyone who sins breaks the law
In fact, sin is lawlessness
But he appeared so that he might
Take away our sins
In him is no sin
The devil has been sinning
From the beginning
The reason the Son of God appeared
Was to destroy the devil’s work
But we know
That when Christ appears
We shall be like him
For we shall see him as he is
All who have this hope in him
Purify themselves
Just as he is pure

Together
01:42
|
|
||
|
We are in this together
You are not isolated
Do not be afraid to
Reach out for help
Know this:
I am here for you
If you fall
I will not just stand there and watch
Take my hand
Let me help you stand up
Back to your feet
Again
Hardships are a part of life
But you don’t have to
Fight every single battle
On your own
We all go through trials
We all have our demons to struggle with
One man can chase a thousand
Two put ten thousand to flight
We are comrades
We leave no man behind
Sticking together
Till the very end

Faith
02:45
|
|
||
|
Faith is confidence
In what we hope for
And assurance about
What we do not see
By faith we understand
That the universe was formed at God’s command
So that what is seen was not
Made out of what was visible
Without faith it is
Impossible to please God
Anyone who comes to him
Must believe
Believe that he exists
And believe
That he rewards those
Who earnestly seek him
We are foreigners
And strangers on earth
Looking for a country of our own
We are longing for
A better country
A better, heavenly one

Take Hold
02:19
|
|
||
|
You have run countless miles
In the good race
Sometimes you get tired
And wonder how to move forward
The going can get tough
The terrain hard
Don’t take your eye
Off your destination above
Forget what is behind
Strain toward what is ahead
Press on and take hold
Of that for which you were taken hold
To win the prize for which
You were called heavenward
Remember this
God is not unjust
He will not forget your work
And the love you have shown him

How lovely is your dwelling place
Lord Almighty
My soul yearns, even faints
For the courts of the Lord
My heart and my flesh cry out
For the living God
Blessed are those who dwell in your house
Whose strength is in you
As they pass through the vale of tears
They make it a place of springs
The autumn rains also cover it
With blessings
They go from strength
To strength
Till each appears
Before God
Hear my prayer
Lord God Almighty
Listen to me
God
Better is one day in your courts
Than a thousand elsewhere
I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God
Than dwell in the tents of the wicked
How lovely is your dwelling place
Lord Almighty
My soul yearns, even faints
For the courts of the Lord
For the Lord God
Is a sun and shield
The Lord bestows
Favor and honor
No good thing does he withhold
From those whose walk is blameless
Lord Almighty
Blessed is the one who trusts in you

Called To Peace
02:49
|
|
||
|
Since you have been raised with Christ
Set your hearts on things above
Where Christ is
Seated at the right hand of God
Set your minds on things above
Not on earthly things
For you died, and your life is now
Hidden with Christ in God
When Christ, who is your life
Appears, then you also will
Appear with him
In glory
Put to death, therefore
Whatever belongs to your earthly nature
The ways you used to walk in
In the life you once lived
You have taken off your old self
With its practices
And have put on the new self
Which is being renewed in knowledge
In the image
Of its Creator
Christ is all
And is in all
Clothe yourselves with compassion
Kindness, humility, gentleness and patience
Bear with each other and forgive one another
And over all these virtues put on love
Put to death, therefore
Whatever belongs to your earthly nature
The ways you used to walk in
In the life you once lived
You have taken off your old self
With its practices
And have put on the new self
Which is being renewed in knowledge
Let the peace of Christ
Rule in your hearts
Since as members of one body
You were called to peace

Forest of Iniquity
by Within Thy Wounds
supported by 5 fans who also own “Joined Together”
Brilliant, magical. Vivid soundscapes and feelings. Perfection! But, I have to admit, listening and taking a christian metal album into my collection is not something that I would normally do. Nonetheless, the music won me over, so I ignored everything else. Within Thy Wounds crafted here a transcendental, emotional atmosphere. Nothing can beat this.
