OLD FRIEND
WHEN DID IT HAPPEN
WHEN DID YOUR EYES
BECOME DAZZLED BY
THE WORLD
INSTEAD OF LIT UP
BY HIS LIGHT
CHOICES TOO
MANY VOICES
WAS THERE ONE
TOO MANY BATTLES
SO YOU GAVE UP
ON THE FIGHT
WAS YOUR LOVE FOR
HIM A DECISION OF
THE MIND
TO BE CHANGED IN TIME
WAS IT REALLY NOT
A COMMITTED WALK
BUT RATHER A DISPLAY
OF RELIGIOUS TALK
I NEED TO KNOW
BECAUSE I LOVE
YOU SO
IF YOU REALLY KNEW HIM
THE WAY THAT I KNEW HIM
YOU WOULD NEVER
WALK AWAY
IF YOU TRULY
UNDERSTOOD
WHAT HIS LOVE WAS
ALL ABOUT
YOU WOULD NEVER
SHUT HIM OUT
ALL THIS TALK OF JESUS
WORKING IN OUR LIVES
IS NOTHING MORE THAN
CHILDISH CHATTER
IF WE DON'T ALLOW
HIM PAST THE MIND
TO PENETRATE WITH
DEATH
INTO THE HEART
OF THE MATTER
INTO THE HEART
OF THE MATTER
OLD FRIEND
HOW DID IT HAPPEN
HOW DID YOU TAKE ALL
THE LIFE HE HAD TO GIVE
AND THEN LET
YOUR PRAISES DIE
CONFUSION RISING
DELUSION
DID YOU GIVE YOUR
HEART TO BUSINESS
AND NEVER QUESTION
WHY
WHEN YOU DISCOVERED
THAT FROM YOU HE
WANTED MORE
DID YOU CLOSE THE DOOR
DID YOU DECIDE TO
DO IT ON YOUR OWN
AND THEN WITHDRAW
TO WALK ALONE
I NEED TO KNOW
BECAUSE I LOVE
YOU SO
IF YOU REALLY KNEW
HIM THE WAY THAT
I KNEW HIM
YOU WOULD NEVER
WALK AWAY
IF YOU TRULY
UNDERSTOOD WHAT
HIS LOVE WAS
ALL ABOUT
YOU WOULD NEVER
SHUT HIM OUT
ALL THIS TALK OF JESUS
WORKING IN OUR LIVES
IS NOTHING MORE THAN
CHILDISH CHATTER
IF WE DON'T ALLOW
HIM PAST THE MIND
TO PENETRATE WITH
DEATH INTO
THE HEART OF
THE MATTER
INTO THE HEART
OF THE MATTER
HOW DO SPIRITUAL
EYES GO BLIND
WHEN DOES DECEPTION
INFILTRATE THE MIND
I KNOW IT'S HARD
TO COMPREHEND
BUT THE CHOICE IS
STILL YOURS OLD FRIEND
DON'T LET IT HAPPEN
IF YOU KNEW HIM THE
WAY THAT I KNEW HIM
YOU WOULD NEVER
WALK AWAY
IF YOU TRULY UNDERSTOOD
WHAT HIS LOVE WAS
ALL ABOUT
YOU WOULD NEVER
SHUT HIM OUT
ALL THIS TALK OF JESUS
WORKING IN OUR LIVES
IS NOTHING MORE THAN
CHILDISH CHATTER
IF WE DON'T ALLOW
HIM PAST THE MIND
TO PENETRATE WITH DEATH
INTO THE
HEART OF THE MATTER
