DEEPER STILL 

Deeper still
The feelings are gone
Deeper still
The vision, the purpose is gone
Deeper still
Those who understand are gone
Deeper still
You are gone
Deeper still 

But I cling to You in the night
I cling to You without feeling
Purpose
Friends
You

The mocking voice arises
“Where is your God?”
I don’t know where He is
But I do know who He is

I must remember Your faithfulness
I must believe Your truth
Lest I die

I wanted just a thread to have
Not to hang on to – honest – just to have
But even a thread is evil
Even a thread would be used to destroy
Your love removed the thread
And I mourned my loss

I didn’t really know You till I knew You as a consuming fire
All of me belongs to You
Oh to used by You
That others would know Your love

Faithful Redeemer, Precious Friend
Go Deeper Still!

LOVIN YOU OUT Of The DARK. 

 When we met I knew you were special

Kinda shy but so tender and kind
We grew closer, I sensed your pain my beloved
You hid, but it was showing through the window to your soul

Chorus
What they did was awful it’s true
But it’s not all over for you
I promise my patience
I promise my heart
While I’m lovin you out of the dark 

Through the years, little cracks in your armor
One here, another one there
Began to show a hurting young woman
Then with tears of rage and betrayal your story poured out

(Chorus)

My heart wept for your overwhelming, terrible pain
You feared my reaction I’m sure
But my love I want only to heal and protect
I’ll never walk out that door 

(Chorus)

You are not damaging goods or all dirty
You’re my wife so faithful and true
My love I will give freely
To the one so special it’s always “I DO!”

(Chorus)

I promise my patience
I promise my heart
While I’m lovin you out of the dark
