Have you ever pushed a boulder up a hill?
Is there space between your shoulders left to fill?
Have you ever pushed a boulder up a hill?
Is there a space between your shoulders left to fill?
Do you face the truth or fold her?
Am I getting hot or colder?
Is the story how it's told or has it spilled?
I once was told a story that could kill...
It's old and goes so long it loses thrill.
They chose a song they knew could bend our will;
Lyrics of a god that holds the quill.
Who holds the skill to learn anew;
To empty the head of sin and pew;
To wake up laughing in the morning dew,
Seeing Eden for the trees?
Who is waiting for a savior in the hearts of them and these? Who is passing round the new book asking
"Add your truth, too, please!"?
Who is learning that a prayer
can be performed from off their knees?
I will join in acts of service that
proclaim these new decrees.
The holy word of god is still alive and still is free.
Murdered prophets practice miracles such as:
"Let It Go" and "Let It Be",
"Let the Love Shine", "Let It Free".
A savior is resurrected from within who has the will,
grabs the quill
begins to see
That there's no need to push a boulder up a hill constantly.
