Restoration of the Soul

No longer do I walk the broad path I walk the straight and narrow The price of death has been paid Unearned forgiveness cast upon the spirit It was inevitable that my ways would succumb to change Wickedness has been purged from the flesh A blemish made perfect only by your grace A fallen creature restored to its intended design Life has been given abundantly I have faith in the king so no need for me to wish I stand tall in who I am so what you see is no myth My surface stable I'm not moving even if the earth shift My life was turned around when the Lord rose me from the crypt No longer do I have a heart of stone it was shattered to pieces When I decided to accept the name of Jesus I do my best to abide by what the word preaches I repent when I lose sight of what the Lord teaches Devastation The world confident in its ignorant belief That it could dethrone you and pass judgment I reject its influence and stand steadfast Ready to combat its authority All creation will bow; will bow upon seeing your gaze The winds traversing the globe will cease upon hearing your name The mountains will crumble and the earth will shake As the trumpets sound and we are screaming your name Though still a sinner, I'm a sinner saved by grace Cleansed by the baptism of the spirit Released from the claws of temptation I fight in the army of the kingdom God you are the catalyst that deviated me from perdition Stripped bare, my soul has been offered My transgressions forgiven Wisdom bestowed unto me, I navigate this worldly maze Death no longer has meaning Because of the act he committed out of love All creation will bow; will bow upon seeing your gaze The winds traversing the globe will cease upon hearing your name The mountains will crumble and the earth will shake As the trumpets sound and we are screaming your name I carry my cross and walk with you as you command No tribulation can stop the might of the holy lamb The world's judgment has no power to lay waste to my path I pick up my cross and walk with you I picked up my cross as he walks with me
