"End of the Beginning"

(Spoken)
I can never go back
And even if I could
There's nothing left that I would want
Of damaged childhood...

(Verse 1)
I'm standing here unafraid
For you are right beside me
I have nothing to fear
For you are by my side
No matter what life throws at me
I will stand my ground
Planted firmly in my confidence
By your love we are bound

(Pre-Chorus)
Bond never broken
Chains torn away
Freedom from my captors
My life on display
What have I to do now
The choices that I make
Will I decide to live this out
Or go back to my heartache

(Chorus)
This path
This choice
At the sound of Your call
To follow your voice
This life
Inside
Is so much greater
(So much greater)

Alive
Surprised
The call of Your Spirit
Is louder than noise
Endued
Renewed
From my savior
(it's from my Savior)

(Verse 2)
I'm so afraid of reaching out
What will they say to me?
What little faith I bring to you
To show them what I see
A broken body worn by time
Or grieving from dismay
I cannot take the pain from you
In doubt I simply pray

(Bridge)
I've seen your love touch the broken
Your words give new light
Give back what was stolen
Breaking up a fight
Gave hope to the hurting
And healed all my wounds
Brought back the suicidal
From the edges of my tomb
Healed broken people
Clarity in chaos
Brought peace into the pain
Of those who suffer loss
Spoke wisdom to the hearing
Gave direction to the lost
And guidance to those questioning
The purpose of your cross

(Chorus)
This path
This choice
To follow your voice
This life
Inside
Is so much greater
(So much greater)

Alive
Surprised
Louder than noise
Renewed
Endued
Gifted from my savior
(From my Savior)

(Ending)
I can never go back
And even if I could
There's nothing left that I would want
Of damaged childhood
The fire that you brought me through
Burned away my pain
So now I stand here one with you
And here I will remain


=================================================
"Lost and Found" (Hidden Track)

(Verse 1)
Mother
What can I say?
I'm looking back but I have lost my way
Mother
What have I done?
I'm innocent, but I am on the run

(Pre-Chorus)
Looking back
I can't stare any longer
The darker mass
Keeps on getting stronger
The shadows grow
And Light begins to run
Hopelessness
What have I done?

(Chorus)
You
Call me
innocent
My
Death is
imminent
Shadows cast a darker sky
Deep inside my heart I cry
I
Seek your
Immanence

(Verse 2)
Father
Where have you gone?
I sought you approval but I guess I was wrong
Father
Do you love me?
These tears on my sleeve beg to disagree

(Bridge)
In the midst of my pain
At the deepest fall
You gave me hope
Despite it all
You reached out your hand
And pulled me to you
My broken heart mended
My life now brand new...
In the midst of my pain
At the deepest fall
You gave me hope
Despite it all
You reached out your hand
And pulled me to you
My broken heart mended
My life brand new...

(Chorus)
You
Call me
innocent
My
Death is
Indolent
Shadows clearing. Brighter sky
Your love begins to amplify
I
Feel your
Immanence

Evocative music for the nostalgic future. Uplifting Industrial and Synthwave. Armed with infectious vocal hooks and nostalgic synthesizers, my intent is to reinvigorate those who are hurting, and to incite hope and joy into the heart of each listener. Each soundscape is meticulously processed through musical atmospheres and emotionally-charged lyrical outcries of joy, sorrow, and hope in Christ. ... more
