Walk the Plank Lyrics

Walk the Plank

Oh to be poor, with a crown upon your spirit

It feels upside down

Down in the valley we can mourn

Where tears keep on falling down

But a sweet path is worn

How could the meek conquer a king

When striving and stepping on souls seems to get what you think that you need

Blessed are those who walk the plank

Like a climb for the rose, the beauty trumps all the pain

Trumps all the pain

Mercy will reign like a sweet sunny day

Over the sins, even the darkest of shame

I need to see to God face to face

Through a pure head and heart

It's the scandal of grace

Oh to wage war with a dose of peace

When it sure would feel good to rise up and raise a little hell

Blessed are those who walk the plank

Like a climb for the rose, the beauty trumps all the pain

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst

For who is behind those red letter words

What good does it do if you can't bless a fool

What good does it do if you can't bless a fool

What good does it do if you can't bless a fool

What good does it do

Sleep

Sleep, my old friend

I wish you'd come around again

So we could all lay down and just be friends

When the moon is so bright, everything's alright

We should all lay down and just be friends

Two-thirty in the morning night

Something here, you know it just ain't right

Every since I laid eyes on my little baby boy

I just can't seem to find my…

Sleep, my old friend

I wish you'd come around again

So we could all lay down and just be friends

When the moon is so bright, everything's alright

We should all lay down and just be friends

We used to be so very close

Then one day you disappeared

Did I leave you or did you leave me?

All I know, all I know is I miss, I miss my…

Sleep, my old friend

I wish you'd come around again

So we could all lay down and just be friends

When the moon is so bright, everything's alright

We should all lay down and just be…

Sleep, my old friend

I wish you'd come around again

So we could all lay down and just be friends

When the moon is so bright, everything's alright

We should all lay down and just be friends

Caedmon

You open up the heavens when you open up your mouth

You open up the heavens when you open up your mouth

Caedmon, your songs were meant to fly

Awake o sleeper, sing me a song

Tell us all about creation

And the kingdom come

Caemon's calling, open your mouth

Let the truth roll off your lips like water flowing from the Son

You open up the heavens when you open up your mouth

You open up the heavens when you open up your mouth

Caedmon, your songs were meant to fly

Like an eagle on high, soaring upon the wind

On a mission, with a sword in your mouth

Slicing through the hatred with a love that binds up the broken hearted

You open up the heavens when you open up your mouth

You open up the heavens when you open up your mouth

Caedmon, your songs were meant to fly

Like an eagle on high, soaring upon the wind

There's power on your tongue

You can give love and take it away

Lift up your brother and your sister

Don't let the kiss of kindness walk away

Caedmon, your songs were meant to fly

Like an eagle on high, soaring upon the…

Caedmon's calling me to open my mouth

The notes are silver and the rests are gold

Love Hates Unforgiveness

Love hates unforgiveness

Like a sickness, it rots your bones and chokes your soul

Like a mistress, off in the distance

She makes your bed in the depths of hell

I had a conversation with the prince of darkness

He was throwing stones upon my shoulder

He told me hold your head up so high

You will always be my bitter soldier

Love hates unforgiveness

Like a sickness, it rots your bones and chokes your soul

Like a mistress, off in the distance

She makes your bed in the depths of hell

I feel the hand of freedom in my prison

He is patiently waiting for me at my well

He tells me my grace is upon you

So dust yourself off from this wicked spell

Love hates unforgiveness

Like a sickness, it rots your bones and chokes your soul

Like a mistress, off in the distance

She makes your bed, she wants to tuck you in

In the depths of hell

I'm not sleeping in that bed tonight

But, I'm still behind the bars of bitterness

Oh, give us all our daily bread and deliver us from this bloodshed

Give us all our daily bread and deliver us from this bloodshed

Eye for eye and a tooth for a tooth

How's that really working out for you living all long on your roof

Eye for eye and a tooth for a tooth

How's that really working out for you living all long on your roof

Love hates unforgiveness

Like a sickness, it rots your bones and chokes your soul
