This Sacred Trust

Let’s rewind, start again
Remember why we’re in the same room
Just a sec, let’s be still
Calm our anger, stop fighting
With a deep breath
Head on your chest
You holding me
Let’s come close, eye to eye
Ears open, listening
We are here because of love
No one can break this, only us
With a deep breath
Head on your chest
You holding me
We’re gonna keep our promise
Lets hold each other tight
And guard this sacred trust

Stare It In The Face

Stare it in the face
I know your afraid
And I know theres pain
But it’s the only way
It’s time to make amends
Even with the mean ones
They no longer have you
So cut the rope around you
There’s no use in holding it all in
There’s no day that’s free from danger
Let’s jump in to the deep end
Let’s give in to forgiveness
These waters are healing
Let’s stay here in freedom
We were born for mercy
We were born for love
We were made to give it
And now it’s up to us
Let’s jump in to the deep end
Let’s give in to forgiveness
These waters are healing
Let’s stay here in freedom
Running into mercy, running into love
Breathing in your mercy, breathing in your love

Palisades

Far and wide are the things I've tried please forgive me
I've grown of age at the end of the day I'm still lonely
Palisades and barricades
Could not stop these storms from a comin'
So we lit our torches set our course
Made our way and traveled toward the morning
To the battlefield
We war our fears
Blood sweat and tears
Birth to ashes
The night is long
But loves fight is strong
At break of dawn
Fear falls alone
Aching mind you know it's time for changing
A thousand nights for one sunrise I'm still waiting
Palisades and barricades
Could not stop these storms from a comin'
So we lit our torches set our course
Made our way and traveled toward the morning
To the battlefield
We war our fears
Blood sweat and tears
Birth to ashes
The night is long
But loves fight is strong
At break of dawn
Fear falls alone
Oh - oh - oh - oh - oh
Oh - oh - oh - oh - oh
Oh - oh - oh - oh - oh - oh

Abe was a big strong man
Doing the best he can
At age thir - ty - six
Big house, a wife and kids
When he was 10 years old
Life brought a giant storm
Dad left and momma cried
Abe’s heart was torn right through
Enlisted at 18
Cheers to the brave marine
Making momma proud
Drowning the voices out
Stop, look, listen
Your heart is bleeding
Time won’t mend this unless
You look back again
Married at 25
To the love of his life
Baby on the way
Now the voices have to fade
Stop, look, listen
Your heart is bleeding
Time won’t mend this unless
You look back again
Little ones all around
Voices louder now
Storms brew in the distance
Is this really all there is

Goodnight Charlie

Watching the stars with you
Seemed a lifetime ago
Seems obligation is a more traveled road
Mind chained to duty
Heart-struck by the moon
When will our dreams become what we do
Good night Charlie
Good night Moon
See you tomorrow or sometime soon
Shadows are closing in
Clouds cover the moon
Younger days and talks till dawn
Ended way too soon
Mind chained to duty
Heart-struck by the moon
When will our dreams become what we do
Good night Charlie
Good night Moon
See you tomorrow or sometime soon
It’s better to know we did than know we didn’t
Its better to say we tried than know we never
