Obsessed

So-so secure
Know no God anymore
Still - Check the horoscope, just to make sure
Quite alright
Sleeping like babes at night
Alarmed and protected
Screened and anaesthetised
How can we believe in love of any permanence
When we’re obsessed with self-defence?
So time and chance lead us in a wearing dance
Time and accident
Words in a vacuum
Such Gods are great?
Their hearts beat at second rate
Dispensing cash and plastic sacraments
How can we believe in love of any permanence
When we’re obsessed with self-defence?
Scratch scrape and build
Altars on which to be killed
Cattle and sheep looking for the sharpened knife
No sense of shame
The victim always bears the blame
The powerful position is:
“Take the money and run!”
How can we believe in love of any permanence
When we’re obsessed with self-defence?

The Kingdom Is Coming
05:02
|
|||
|
The powers of the air will surely fall
Deliverance of the captives once for all
The final vindication still to come
The finish of a war already won
The Kingdoms coming
Placed here as a witness
And to resist
A foretaste of the Kingdom in the midst
Human still but sparking with a power
Strong in weakness by the grace made ours
The Kingdom’s coming
May your will be done
May your Kingdom come
All creation’s longing for the day
We’ve been told to wait and watch and pray
Another realm will break on time and space
The rightful King will come and take His place
The Kingdom’s coming
The Kingdom’s coming
On earth as in Heaven
May your will be done
The kingdom’s coming...

Seriously siblings
Are you running scared, running scared, running scared
Seriously siblings
Are you running scared, running scared,
Why so scared?
From a howling night we’re running into daylight
Down a corridor of knives
From a city built on suffering and warfare
We are running into life
Seriously siblings
Running hard, running hard, running hard
Seriously siblings
Are you running hard, running hard, running hard?
There’s no time to stand around in acquiescence
To the spirit of this age
In the love of Christ find strength to resist evil
In His justice all the rage
Sing Hallelujah, sing loud and long
Sing Hallelujah, sing a new song
Sing Hallelujah, sing proud and strong
Sing Hallelujah, sing a new song
Seriously siblings
Come on now, come on now, come on now
Seriously siblings
Why won’t you come on now, come on now, come on now?
There’s a mighty hand that holds us all in orbit
Round His own eternal light
Praise His name and by His Spirit live within it
In His strength fight the good fight
Sing Hallelujah, sing loud and long
Sing Hallelujah, sing a new song
Sing Hallelujah, sing proud and strong
Sing Hallelujah, sing a new song
When the anti-Christ comes roaring
And you feel your love song drowned
Let your heart be broken open
Let your love of God’s love sound
Seriously siblings
Won’t you run with joy, run with joy, run with joy?

More To This
04:07
|
|||
|
Melody fly like a seagull
Over a rhythm, over this ‘C’
Enter the movement
Real and imagined
Listening together
Do we hear the same?
When you look beneath the surface
You will find
More to this than meets the eye
Turbulent times in our thinking
Growing is painful
Smiling through scars
Fear of indifference
Selfish or loving
I think it’s a mixture
Well, it mixes in me
When you look beneath the surface
You will find
More to this than meets the eye
Trembling hearts mingle beatings
Our great adventure
Is living to love
Hurting and praying
Life and death weighing
Shallow and human
Touched by divine
When you look beneath the surface
You will find
More to this than meets the eye

I'm Still Human
02:52
|
|||
|
You’re watching me
You’re watching every move I make
And it’s O.K. so long as I don’t make a mistake
But if I slip up once or twice in a row
Then you’re pointing the finger
Saying you don’t want to know
But listen
I’m still human
I’m still human
I’m just somebody who gold hold of something true
I’ve seen some changes
And I think you’ve seen some changes too
I’m not claiming some divine perfecting
But that seems to be what you’re expecting
I’m still human
I’m still human
(You thought that God was somewhere up in the blue
But now it seems He’s Closing in on you…)
You look at me
And you see someone a lot like you
That may not be the way you like it
But you know that it’s true
I’ve not turned into some kind of clone
I’ve still got a mind of my own
I’m still human
I’m still human
I’m still human…

Signs Of War
06:18
|
|||
|
There’s a line on the byway
Made of ragged torn hearts
Refugees fleeing, lives loaded in carts
Their eyes are in the present
Their pain is here and now
Their need is for shelter
They know not where or how
There are snipers in the treetops
There are mines in the road
There are lies in the airways
Adding to their load
There are forces of evil that pretend to be good
There are forces of the same sort
Looking as they should
These signs of war
This apocalyptic seed of violence and greed
Are all the signs we need
But do we care anymore?
The beast is prowling
Lusting after blood
Desiring all our promise be ground into the mud
I see love stand appealing
I see money shout it down
I see the spirit of distortion don the judge’s gown
These signs of war
That are gathered for attack,
That turn plenty into lack,
Are to stab us in the back,
But do we care anymore?
We are in peril of destruction
As we are playing deaf and dumb
We are approaching Armageddon
With judgement yet to come
The war is on and it’s time to choose a side
Here within the great divide
Where all those who won’t decide,
Or just don’t care anymore,
Count as having chosen...

Crying Inside
06:03
|
|||
|
So tough - Nothing touches you
So hard - nobody’s pain gets through
So deep - your tears are diamonds
So mean - you’re giving none away
I can’t look at you without crying inside
This time - you made your indecisions
No gifts - you make your lovers pay
See through - your every smile transparent
I know you could be more than this
I can’t look at you without crying inside
So long - the second’s legs seem broken
So tired - but you can’t get the rest
Why try?
Why make the moments happen?
You tense - and try another trap
I can’t look at you without crying inside
I can’t look at you without crying inside
I can’t look at you without crying
Inside...

What In The World
04:11

|
Policeman in the classroom
Teaching the children how to scream
It’s more than not talking to strangers
It could be someone in your family
Nasty man with video
Feeds the demand he supplies
He doesn’t care where his victims get to
As long as the profits multiply
What in the world are we doing?
What in the world are we doing?
From the members to the house next door
There’s a whole lot of fooling about
How many more take enough precautions
Like it’s not wrong ‘till you’re found out?
Newspapers throwing stones
About the moral decay of the nation;
You turn the page there’s the thin end of the wedge
Smiling for the circulation
What in the world are we doing?
What in the world are we doing?
On the alter of convenience
Another child is sacrificed
The god of pleasure takes his toll
And still we queue to pay the price
What in the world are we doing?
What in the world are we doing?

A Worthless Song?
03:42
|
|||
|
You say that you love me but you’re giving me nothing
You say that you care but you never listen
You say that you’re kind but you only give charity
You want me to smile and let you live my life for me
You make me feel so worthless
“Did somebody speak?” - you didn’t hear
The sound of my pleas never reaches your ear
So far as you’re aware my pain is fantasy
You dig up all your cliches and pour them upon me
You make me feel so worthless
Authority makes you better than I
You dare me to argue
You want me to try
Inside your kid glove there’s a strangler’s hand
You war upon all that won’t go as you planned
You make me feel so worthless
You make me feel so worthless
You make me feel so worthless

Never Mind
07:04
|
|||
|
“Never mind”, says the devil on your shoulder,
“You can eat your cake and have it -
It only means your being sick.”
“Never mind”, says the moron in the advert;
“You can fiddle with the big boys -
You only need a lot of cash.”
All the forms of consolation
That are pointers into hell
Leave a taste of dust and ashes in the mouth
When they fall into the balance
Of our deepest human needs
They crumble into nothing and blow away
“Never mind”, says delirium in the bottle
As it rushes round the temple
And graffities on the walls
“Never mind”, says the profit of big business;
“We can make the world a playground;
We can make ourselves immune.”
All the times we have committed
To the culture of our lies
Will be blown apart like victims of the bomb
When we undermine the truth
Directly or by stealth
We prepare all our foundations for collapse.
Still - never mind...
All the things that we believe in
Are expressed eloquently
In loud symbols that stand screaming in our lives
“Never mind”, so say all of us consumers
As we double guzzle portions
And deprive the poor of theirs
“Never Mind”, says the human who abandons
The great promises of heaven
In a search for little thrills
Shall we turn to face the music
Seek forgiveness and new life?
Shall we make peace with our maker in His son?
Shall we find the place of solace
Receive the strength of love?
Shall we turn or blunder blind
In “Never mind”...?

Try Again
04:30

She tried looking in a magazine
She tried taking a holiday in every place she’d ever been
She tried lovers, mothers and others to cover her shame
She tried treated life as a silly game
She said
“Let’s try again, try again, try again
One more time”
She said
“Let’s try again, try again, try again
One more time”
She tried drugs
She got herself stoned
She took on debts and mortgages
Bound herself up in loans
She wanted everything
Absolutely everything,
To be a thrill
She’d always suck off the sugar
But she’d never take the bitter pill
(She’d say, “It’s no fun! C’mon..”)
She said
“Let’s try again, try again, try again
One more time”
She said
“Let’s try again, try again, try again
One more time”
She felt every feeling that she could feel
She dug deep down into herself and found nothing real
She made a swear word out of Jesus
It made her feel so insecure
She turned love into a pop song
She thought herself above the law
She said
“Let’s try again, try again, try again
One more time”
She said
“Let’s try again, try again, try again
One more time”

Find Your Feet
06:09

So many questions
Nobody giving the answers
Yet you ask them all in good faith
So many feelings
Nobody wants to share
But you feel them anyway
Welcome to the human race
The glory and the sadness
May you find your pathway home
May you find your feet upon it
So many problems
So many proffered solutions
That lead to more confusion
So many needing something more than diagnosis
But where is healing to be found?
Welcome to the human race
The glory and the sadness
May you find your pathway home
May you find your feet upon it
So we turn our different ways
And we try to make it home
But you know we’ll never get there on our own
We need a guide who loves us
(I hear a baby crying under his star...)
Welcome to the human race
The glory and the sadness
May you find your pathway home
May you find your feet upon it
Welcome to the human race
The glory and the sadness
May you find your pathway home
May you find your feet upon it...

Dance
06:30
|

|
Word of God came looking for me
Deep into this corner of the room
Where I hid in gloom
Asked me:
“Who do you say I am?
Listen to the song of truth I sing...”
It’s got a beat of angels wings!
I think I’ll get up and dance...
Out into the gleaming spotlight
Knees are shaking
Feet they lead me on towards the Heavenly song
Suddenly, I feel a movement
Filling me up from head to toe
Oh! It makes me want to g-g-g-g- g-go;
Get up and dance!
I can feel a heartbeat moving
On the edge
On the edge of my vision
It’s like a flashing light
It is the dawning of the new life where I stand
Free on the plain
Without the chains
Where I can move my limbs and move my mouth and move my soul
Into freedom
Dance!
Jesus came off the Cross
And left it all behind Him
Defeated Death fell from Him like an empty sack
That once held rubbish
Rising
Rising
Into forever
Dragging us behind Him
If
We will only give our lives into His hands
He’ll teach us to dance...

Word of God came looking for me
Deep into this corner of the room
Where I hid in gloom
Asked me:
“Who do you say I am?
Listen to the song of truth I sing...”
It’s got a beat of angels wings!
I think I’ll get up and dance...
Out into the gleaming spotlight
Knees are shaking
Feet they lead me on towards the Heavenly song
Suddenly, I feel a movement
Filling me up from head to toe
Oh! It makes me want to g-g-g-g- g-go;
Get up and dance!
I can feel a heartbeat moving
On the edge
On the edge of my vision
It’s like a flashing light
It is the dawning of the new life where I stand
Free on the plain
Without the chains
Where I can move my limbs and move my mouth and move my soul
Into freedom
Dance!
Jesus came off the Cross
And left it all behind Him
Defeated Death fell from Him like an empty sack
That once held rubbish
Rising
Rising
Into forever
Dragging us behind Him
If
We will only give our lives into His hands
He’ll teach us to dance...

Melody fly like a seagull
Over a rhythm, over this ‘C’
Enter the movement
Real and imagined
Listening together
Do we hear the same?
When you look beneath the surface
You will find
More to this than meets the eye
Turbulent times in our thinking
Growing is painful
Smiling through scars
Fear of indifference
Selfish or loving
I think it’s a mixture
Well, it mixes in me
When you look beneath the surface
You will find
More to this than meets the eye
Trembling hearts mingle beatings
Our great adventure
Is living to love
Hurting and praying
Life and death weighing
Shallow and human
Touched by divine
When you look beneath the surface
You will find
More to this than meets the eye

Try me in the fire and melt me down
Test me as you will
Re-design my life to be the mould
You want me to fill
Chorus
In you I have a complete confidence
I've never known before
In you I have a complete confidence
In you I rest assured
Break me if it's right to save my life
You know what is best
Give me what you know I need to serve
Take away the rest
Chorus
Make a roaring flame of my desire
To be in your employ
Here into your hands I place my life
My sorrow and my joy

You say that you love me but you’re giving me nothing
You say that you care but you never listen
You say that you’re kind but you only give charity
You want me to smile and let you live my life for me
You make me feel so worthless
“Did somebody speak?” - you didn’t hear
The sound of my pleas never reaches your ear
So far as you’re aware my pain is fantasy
You dig up all your cliches and pour them upon me
You make me feel so worthless
Authority makes you better than I
You dare me to argue
You want me to try
Inside your kid glove there’s a strangler’s hand
You war upon all that won’t go as you planned
You make me feel so worthless
You make me feel so worthless
You make me feel so worthless

Seriously siblings
Are you running scared, running scared, running scared
Seriously siblings
Are you running scared, running scared,
Why so scared?
From a howling night we’re running into daylight
Down a corridor of knives
From a city built on suffering and warfare
We are running into life
Seriously siblings
Running hard, running hard, running hard
Seriously siblings
Are you running hard, running hard, running hard?
There’s no time to stand around in acquiescence
To the spirit of this age
In the love of Christ find strength to resist evil
In His justice all the rage
Sing Hallelujah, sing loud and long
Sing Hallelujah, sing a new song
Sing Hallelujah, sing proud and strong
Sing Hallelujah, sing a new song
Seriously siblings
Come on now, come on now, come on now
Seriously siblings
Why won’t you come on now, come on now, come on now?
There’s a mighty hand that holds us all in orbit
Round His own eternal light
Praise His name and by His Spirit live within it
In His strength fight the good fight
Sing Hallelujah, sing loud and long
Sing Hallelujah, sing a new song
Sing Hallelujah, sing proud and strong
Sing Hallelujah, sing a new song
When the anti-Christ comes roaring
And you feel your love song drowned
Let your heart be broken open
Let your love of God’s love sound
Seriously siblings
Won’t you run with joy, run with joy, run with joy?

It's all a matter of taste. I love this album. I love it's serenity, the beautiful instrumentation, orchestration and the great production. Ambient is not my cup of tea either, but this album crosses the borders of ambient music and prog. In other words: an awesome album!
