Album: Glad

(Part I: I Am):

I am the son of generations
Yet to be born
I am the flame of the candle
The sound of the horn
I am the staff of the shepherd
And the cry of the lamb
I am, I am, I am

Life comes but once
To the average man
When he gets it, he sets it
In the palm of his hand
He shouts commands in its direction
To see what it does
And it just looks back
And tells him what he was

Wheat and the chaff
Growing side by side
Peace interrupted cannot decide
Only one moment lost forever in time
And the children begin to fly

And they're gone to a life incorruptible
Gone, eternal age never old
The seal has been broken, opened
The kingdom of heaven has taken control
Behold!

I am the son of generations
Yet to be born
I am the flame of the candle
The sound of the horn
I am the staff of the shepherd
And the cry of the lamb
I am, I am, I am
I am, I am

(Part II: Fall On Me):

Rise up to the calling
Of a new and different King
A prophet of the ages
He can give you anything
The new life of the springtime
And the harvest of the fall
Can be yours if you will follow
The salvation of us all

We shall prosper, we shall gain
Peace and power, free of pain
The blood of the servant
Shall fill no human vein

When the world starts falling in
When all you love is laughed away
By wonders of the wind
Just give me your hand
I will fill it again like a fountain
Call on Me, call on Me

I speak of wealth and riches
Tales of shining gold and brass
But even by a beggar
Is a noble shadow cast
Promises I give you
And you'll spend them 'til you see
That long before the ends appears
You will belong to Me

But there's gonna be a day
When a scream will split the skies
And all the angels' ears
Will be deafened to your cries
You learned the Master's language
But you never thought to read
The signs that were laid before your eyes

When the world starts falling in
When righteousness is dragged away
(Miserere)
By once-elusive sin
That's when you'll understand
And you'll roam through the land crying
"Mountains, fall on me, fall on me!"

(Part III: Lord of Life):

We have loved before
And we'll love again
But only You can show us love that's true
We have lived before
Now we'll live again
As we were always meant to live for You

Lord of Life
Guardian of the Star
Where else can we be but where we are?

Are we destiny?
Are we made to be
Another few who've come to live and die?
We are love gone wild
In the end, a child
Waiting for Your touch to light our eyes

Lord of Life
Guardian of the Star
Keeper of the far wind that blows

Lord of Life
Maker of my form
One who calms the storm in my soul

(Reprise):

Behold!

I am the son of generations
Yet to be born
I am the flame of the candle
The sound of the horn
I am the staff of the shepherd
And the cry of the lamb
I am, I am, I am
I am, I am
