Stop the Silence

Who am I to you except a random person rambling? If you stumbled upon this song longing for purpose gambling I hand out hope to anyone who wants or asks to grab it It isn't of me but of He who in an instant can heal the addict Sin stricken sickness creeps slowly to choke out Smoked out human shells like the egg white and yoke's out A hollow man following no plans and feeling empty Jesus a friend to the friendless and you have purpose plenty Needing He a hero to free you from the heroin Don't give up on life He freely gives your inheritance But turn and repent, He will heal your negligence Then follow His lead, do you see His need to take up residence In present tense I'm pleading with you He can take your burden Cast it at His feet the weight retreats your heart will stop the hurting I have seen first hand the effects of drugs and violence But eyelids can be opened, so wake up and stop the silence! Tell your sister, your mother, your brother Wake up & stop the silence Tell the fiend, your friend, your father Time to wake up open your eyelids There's an enemy who wants you quiet Wake up and stop the silence Clear the blur you keep denying Time to wake up open your eyelids Banking on clarity as though it's something given For listener's logic from the paper to sound after written The subtleties and nuances of words becoming voice The tongue dances with the choice to unleash the purposed noise You can know I have decided and I have resolved Not to allow my faith in God to get sidelined or meaning get dissolved I call on the name of the the breather of life My advice is to quit the blame on that name for damning and strife But advice is useless unless I've established credibility So to set the record straight I speak on behalf of my King willingly These words are not my own but have been shown to me by grace Jesus was killed in my place but raised and coming back to show His face So I embrace the challenges given for they pale in comparison To pain and agony felt while sins were placed on His back to carry them I'm far from perfect but don't let that rob God of what's true That He deserves my life given back to Him and asks the same of you
