I Am Living in a Land of Death |
I’m living in a land of death |
The trees are burning grey |
There’s a smoldering smoke overhead |
And the night looks the same as the day |
It seems a miracle that I can stand |
When everyone I’ve known |
Drifts up in the air with the ash |
Every time that the wind starts to blow |
But I feel alive with a life that’s not mine |
Your law is a stream in this wasteland — my lifeline |
So much more than precious gold |
Are your promises my lord |
By them is your servant warned |
In keeping them great reward |
Your direction is marked in light |
Your law secures my wounds |
I will meditate day and night |
And in season you’ll harvest your fruit |
Though a poison should threaten to kill |
I know my savior reigns |
And when the breezes of death leave a chill |
I’ve got Jesus' blood in my veins |
So I feel alive with a life that’s not mine |
And I’m believing that that is your intended design |
The kingdoms of man have all decayed |
The ruins of progress turn to waste |
The gods of greed lay in their graves |
Darkness is everywhere |
But there’s a path in the dark that has emerged |
I can see a great light beyond this curse |
A brilliant blaze that is your word |
A beacon of hope that burns |
And I focus my captivated gaze |
On the radiant light from Jesus' face |
The water of life is all I crave |
Only your word remains |
