Love Will Never Fail
01:57
|
|||
|
Love, love is patient, love is kind,
Throws its body on the line, transcends space and time
And love, love was hung upon a cross,
Came to seek and save the lost,
Paid the highest cost in blood
Faith, hope and love - all yours for free
Faith, hope and love - choose from just three
Faith, hope and love - how it's plain to see
Faith, hope and love - love's reigns supreme
Keep the faith, move a mountain
Holding hope like a fountain
Overall, love is constant
It will never fail

One By One

One by one by one
You've lost more than you've won
Your happiness is gone
One by one by one
The changes have begun and you know your time has come
Stepping on heads, jumping in beds
Risking your life to get out of the red
Papering cracks, stabbing in backs
Building up money just to buy what you lack
What will it take for you to break
free from the chains of this mould that you've made
One by one by one
You've lost more than you've won
Your happiness is gone
One by one by one
The changes have begun and you know your time has come
Two thirds or the world on a pound a day
And you keep two cars in your drive way
Two percent of the population take the doe
While the rest still lament as they reap and sow
You're told that you're looking after number one
Turn round and you wonder where you friends have gone
You strive to survive in the rat-race
Fat cats wipe the smile from your fat face

Fight The Good Fight
02:40
|
|||
|
Let there be music, let there be food,
let there be beauty, let there be truth, whatever is lovely, whatever is pure,
If there be hatred, may love be the cure
In the dark of the night there is a light
for every valley there is a mountain high
So keep on believing, though you be grieving, hope will restore your sight
Learn from your lesson, share all your blessings, keep fighting the good fight
Keeping an eye out for goodness,
and keeping an ear for what's sound,
making a space for forgiveness,
taking it as all holy ground,
We're making a strong case for justice,
We're making a quest now for peace,
Praying for people imprisoned,
Calling the poor to the feast

Still Human, Still Here
05:19
|
|||
|
Walk a mile in the sandals, feel the scandal of a lost soul
Left my home, fled the violence, sought aslyum in a new world
Packed my hopes in a rucksack, walked the train track to the border
Paid a price, forged a passport, pray I’m not caught by the law force
Squeezed inside a container, now a sailor on a lone voyage
Still human, I’m still here, still living with my fear
You might wish I’d disappear, I’m still breathing, I’m still here
Still human, I’m still here, still drowning in these tears
And though freedom is so near, I’m still shackled, I’m still here
Still human, I’m still here, still human, I’m still here, still human,
I’m still here, still human
Been a while in a strange place, with a court case undecided
Gave my file to a law firm, but the short term, I’m just stranded
Tried to prove I’m in danger, but a stranger can’t be trusted
And as I wait with no meaning and no money I go hungry
I go hungry…

An Endless Fight
02:55
|
|||
|
There once was a time when a lie wasn't black or white
When sin had a name, not a game, there was wrong or right
But oh how the soul can be blinded, binded, trapped inside a hole
We deny it, hide it, circumcise it
Try as I might be the light, there's an endless fight
For the things I wanna do seem so hard to do
And everything I hate sticks to me like glue
And every time I feel that I'm standing tall
The higher the height and the bigger the fall

Never Be The Same
03:27
|
|||
|
Overwhelmed I strive for more
Don't know what I'm looking for
Here my heart will find a home
Justified by faith alone
And things will never be the same....

Sold Down The River
03:08
|
|||
|
Danger on every side
When greed and religion collide
Innocent people will die
Looking for places to hide
I saw you shiver, you lips start to quiver - so long
Stuck in the middle of some place where you don't belong
You take advantage of war
Steeling the land from the poor
Chaos has opened its door
Refugees swimming for shore
I saw you shiver, you lips start to quiver - so long
Stuck in the middle of some place where we don't belong
Paid and delivered a six digit figure - It's wrong
Sold down the river but we'll still be singing a song

Interstellar Voyage
03:42
|
|||
|
Bleary eyed I meet the morning, freezing cold my naked body
Polyester, wool or cotton, summer sun is long forgotten
Winds are blowing, leaves are falling,
Sun is fading, nights are longing
All the city streets are crawling,
Hands and feet need winter warming
A satalite receiving nothing, the engine cold the motor stalling
Floating without fear of falling, on an interstellar voyage home to you, home to you
When I come home to blazing fires,
Will I come home to your desire?
Far beyond the earth in orbit, galaxies and blazing comets
Stary eyed, my heart is longing on an interstellar voyage home to you, home to you
Coming home to you, home to you
When I come home to blazing fires, will I come home to your desire?

Only In The Night Time
04:01
|
|||
|
Grow old, cold, only at the right time
Bought , sold, but only for the right price
Truth, lies, spies, only through the right eyes
Black, white, grey, heaven knows, you decide
Rubber hits the road, rocks begins to roll, slipping down the slope
Culture can corrode, will we explode?
Fear, we're here, only in the night time
Dreams, memes, seems everything is alright
Heat, sweet, keep bottling it up inside
Fall, crawl, sprawl, earth and comets will collide
Rubber hits the road,
rocks begins to roll,
slipping down the slope
Culture can corrode,
Will we explode if we're all alone origins unknown
Who will you phone, you're just a drone
Everything is alright
Only in the night time

Oh Lord Oh, Oh Lord Oh, Sow Lord Sow, Grow Lord Grow....
You've got the law but it's so hard to keep it
You know the truth but it's hard to believe it
So keep running the road you've been given
And keep your eyes on the prize, not the prison
In the soil there's weeds with the wheat
In every heart there's trust and deceite
But don't bow to fear or suspicion
As you sow in tears there's fruition
