New star in the sky tonight The orient on high Life to death and death to light It’s opening my eyes The mystery is near Love has come The sun is born today Rejoice! Rejoice! Rejoice! The blood and flesh of birth Brings heaven to the earth The secret held inside of her Is the spoken universe The mystery is here To hold the living word A gift of hope and fear Rejoice! Rejoice! Rejoice! There, we felt the earth shake A celebration that would end all days Death is on the run, from the rising sun Come on, and lay your body down Wise, and kings, and everyone The sacrifice has just begun Life to death and death to light Come on, and open up your eyes Come on, and open up your eyes Celebrate the mass of Christ Life to death and death to light Celebrate the sacrifice

Take the water On your shoulders Holy, halej One and only I know I saw the signs The mystery divine “The Only” All the roads I Tried to follow All the truths I Couldn’t swallow The road is hard, but Paved with gold My heartbreak on the floor Take the water On my shoulders Holy, halej Going under Rising up, it’s a long way down The holy hands of fire Reach in and pull me higher Illumined now The holy hands of fire Reach in and pull me higher If only, if only… Home…

I was waiting in line Even though I didn’t know If I would make it on the ride Who’s to say I’d see the signs? Been waiting all my life I want to see what I believe But it couldn’t prove a single thing to me It’s unbelievable (I’ll take you for a ride) You’re always wondering “why?” (I’ll take you for a ride) It’s OK, it’s alright Don’t hold your breath I’m by your side Don’t hide your eyes And don’t ask “why?” (No reason) Take my hand, we’ll take the ride Take my hand, we’re takin’ the ride It’s right before my eyes The mystery has no disguise It’s somethin’ I could never prove And I couldn’t even try to “The miracle that I would not see Was too caught up in my own belief Where are the strings? It’s a mystery” (I’ll take you for a ride) You’re always wondering “why?” (I’ll take you for a ride) It’s OK, it’s alright Don’t hold your breath I am your sigh Don’t hide your eyes And don’t ask “why?” (No reason) Take my hand, we’ll take the ride Take my hand, we’re takin’ the ride Takin’ the ride I could laugh and I could cry I could live or I could die “Jaded?” Buried, and faded Better than all my eyes knew I can see through the joke

I tried to love somebody true But it doesn’t matter what I do I tried my best to win your heart “I had it from the start…” I thought I had something to prove But I can’t gain what I can’t lose I tried to buy it with a dream “You can’t buy me…” A billion moments all the same And in the end, we’re crippled kings I wanted you to want me back “It’s a thing that can’t be asked…” All I could do won’t ever change you… I’m nearly there And there’s no stopping now Because there’s no crying out At all The prayer that I can never say The drug that I can never take I can’t get it, but I can receive Truth that I cannot believe Doesn’t matter how hard I try The last will be the first in line The miracle I need the most Is the secret I already know Life to death and old to new Before is after me is you You gotta love somebody true Doesn’t matter what you lose

I have a lover A love like no other She got soul, soul, soul, sweet soul And she teach me to sing Shows me colours when there’s none to see Gives me hope when I can’t believe For the first time I feel love I have a brother When I’m a brother in need I spend my whole time running He spends his running after me When I feel myself going down I just call and he comes around But for the first time I feel love You took the money, I spiked your drink You miss too much these days if you stop to think You lead me on with those innocent eyes You know I love the element of surprise In the garden I was playing the tart I kissed your lips and broke your heart And you, you were talking about the end of the world My father is a rich man He wears a rich man’s cloak Gave me the keys to his kingdom coming Gave me a cup of gold He said I have many mansions And there are many rooms to see But I left out the back door And I threw away the key Yeah, I threw away the key Yeah, I threw away the key Yeah, I threw away the key For the first time… And for the first time… And for the first time… I feel love

Sunrise on the garden Walkin’ through the morning Opening my eyes to The orient on high When we felt the earth shake Haven’t been alone, say Death is on the run Death is on the run Don’t know where I’ve been, but I know where you’re hidden “Why do you seek the living Here among the dead? What’ve you got to fear There’s nothing for you here?” (Nothing for you here) Like you said… Don’t know where you’ve been, but I know where I’m hidden “Why do you seek the living Here among the dead? What’ve you got to fear There’s nothing for you here?” (Nothing for you here) Walking through the garden Sunrise on the morning Orient on high is Opening my eyes When I felt the earth shake I heard everyone say, “Death is on the run From the rising sun”

Of Ages 08:06
I guess I always knew That ‘I’ would turn to ‘you’ I kissed the serpent of creation And bled the secret of your affection It’s the end of ages It’s Holy revelation See love sing its final song, only ghosts sing along All alone, under aegis Of aegis, of ages… Here it is and it’s comin’ Here it is and it’s all to night We have wakened the morning With crucifiction and resurrection I cannot feel when I can not fight I’m in the heart of the death of ’mine’ Nothing is gone when I say goodbye If I am free, then you’re ‘Adonai’!! And when you called me a homesick hound You know you called me, you called me out And then you called me out! And then you called me out! All my secrets came up on the ride Ride, ride, ride, ride, ride…. On the lips of horses All them sickened horses
