Trepidation Lyrics

With sudden panic I recall the dire state of others

My trepidation at the reckoning

A fear that I keep hidden underneath the surface

Under my lazy Christianity

For on the day of Sunrise, will I stand all alone?

Or can I scrape a meager offering?

I feel the pressure building – “I am responsible”

Who can I drag next, kicking, screaming?

God’s a big boy – He can handle

All unbelief, all our scandal

When all we know passes away

He will gather all, will gather all

I am blocked by people moving on, by all the changing weather

By that the regular is comforting

How can I plead the choices – to activate the hole

To always pray to gather kindling?

Does God not see panic? Surely I am not alone

There must be others out there struggling!

I feel the pressure mounting – who is responsible?!

The halls of men could soon be emptying

Wait for a world that cannot be

The plan to separate all things

Is it what we did?

Is all-love hindered?

I must trust that in the end I’ll see

But – am I free?
