CENTURIES APART LYRICS

1. Narrow Gate

This path unbeaten leads me to doubt the success that it promises.
Seeming alone, I will fight the battle which I will lose to myself.

I blame clarity, ignorance and my own pride;
The only driving force.
Regret I won't, though the spite builds a bitter unfamiliar climax.

These walls are thin and my morale is thinning.

How can I be so sure in a time where only wrong distracts me?
I am torn to desperation beyond my own doubts.
The path only narrows itself ahead and options diminish from the sealed fate.

I hope and fear that I am fearless.

I'll fight the battle, I'll lose to myself.

2. Malachi (My Messenger)

This is the burden on my shoulders which I carry today.
My soul troubled and my heart is overturned within me.

I am a failure and I am weak.

This is the burden on my shoulders which I carry today.
My soul troubled and my heart is overturned within me.

I will embrace your truth, and I will embrace your glory.

Send down your messenger so he can prepare the world for you.
I will follow him until the end and watch his name be reverenced by all nations.

Truth will pour out of his mouth.

Deny yourself, pick up up your cross and follow me.
This he will say and I will listen.

3. Absolution

Look at me now, come and see what I see.
Look at your life ravaged by ideals.

Who are you to tell that I am wrong?
I really doubt that you are so wise.

This time I will bow down to whoever I chose.
Your plague will yield no salvation for you.
I dream that you will find our paths converging.

His love is the absolute way.
(How vain we have become)
Through the blood of Jesus Christ.

There is blood on our hands.
What have we become?
This is not who we are.
Stained with guilt and blame.

Now we are praying for a restoration.

4. Remembrance

I will bear the name of Christ and come after him.
My heart is yearning for more than this.

I will bear the cross and come after him.
My heart is yearning for more than this.
I've committed to a truth that cannot be shaken.

Surround us with your presence and mend the weary hearts of a shattered generation.
What are you afraid of now?

Follow the example and you will become whole again.
His love will stretch across the land and the sea for those who choose to believe.

I will bear the name of Christ to a shattered generation.

5. His Principle

Despite all we see,
We still have hope in humanity.
We were meant to win this fight and we will stand for what is right.
If we don't unite, we will shame him and his principle.

We will shame him and his principal.
(We will shame him.)

There is no better time then now to destroy vanity.
Do not fear the truth, for it is only love.

You will weep and you will mourn,
But the world will rejoice in his glory.
Your pain will turn into joy.

He will remember your voice,
If you remember his love.

Rejection is not an option.
Open you eyes.
Let him speak through you and don't doubt yourself.

Confide in him for in the end nothing else will matter.
Confide in him for in the end nothing else will count.

Keep your faith, he is coming soon.
(Keep your faith.)
Keep your faith, he is coming soon.
(Just keep your faith.)
