Strum
D-DU-UDU
Am I a barren temple left for newer ways
Of speaking mysteries my veils cannot contain
Should I prepare to winter spend again
-single strum
Of silent centuries' speech for only certain men
What if I wait to find You've gone
What if Your presence was withdrawn
And I was mistaken all along
To think that I could become your home
It'd be no surprise to finally know
I am truly alone
-single strum
Come death, but likely sooner I'll be alone
-single strum
You moved your temple
-single strum
inside our bones and it's
-single strum
So hard to trust that You
won't move again
For all eternity, You stood with Your Father in perfect unity
And when You walked the earth, You only went where He led
You only spoke what He said
So for everything You left, and all of the glory You forfeit
No matter how low You were sent
You still couldn't know what it's like to be alone
Disgraced, but You were never alone
Betrayed, but You were never alone
Tortured, but still never alone
And nothing is worse than being alone
I have been thinking hard about us trading place
Maybe I can wear Your beauty if You put on my shame
Jesus, I've been trying so hard to look like You
That I almost missed the worst of what I put You through
You didn't die for sins, You died covered in them
A prideful, lying thief, gasping out my final breath
-single strum
-single strum
For that one moment
-single strum
You looked just like me
-single strum
Your Father left you
And You died completely alone
For me, You were alone
You couldn't marry so He left You all alone
No better promise than sympathy
(You conquered death all alone)
'Cause you know the deepest of all our needs
Never again, never alone
