All Else Failed

I will endure. It will endure in me. Until the end, forever.

I will endure. If we continue in these ways, rebellion bends towards hatred.
We rise up for our cause, and forsake the outsiders.
Where is this love, this understanding? Who will stand?
What will break down if this up rise of self is left to reign?
This age screams for a standard to uphold, and an answer for the questions.
The wavering of beliefs lead to destruction. Nothing remains constant to its origin but the unchanging faith of Christ.
The one stable since creation. Thoughts have come, and theories have gone.
Nothing has lasted through resistance. But who can deny, who can dispute the faith that's been throughout since the foundation of the beginning?
It has always been and always will be. Forever. It has been proven.
It shall remain.
This faith has stood the test. It persists through the conflict.
Through the revolt against its ways, nothing has held true like this. No other has revealed such strength.
The roots run deep within. Entangling around my rock. Never letting go of this truth.
The power that has sustained me.
I will endure in what I believe and what I believe will endure in me...

Revelation, unknowing has been taken.
Why had I waited so long? Refrained for this love.
Never open to the hope He has. How could I reject this? He was calling my name.
Searching for me. I always turned away. Not wanting to believe I have a need for Him.
Feeling this emptiness. Not knowing he could fill.
Drowning in my efforts to find comfort. I searched and strived for the answer.
But every step I fell and the earth crumbled underneath me.
Now I found this rock. This stable place.
The pain has gone away. I place my hope in no other.
My heart, it cries, it toils inside me. Wanting all to have this life.
Wanting all to know this love, but I'm reminded of my turning. Closing my eyes.
Running the other way, but I've decided. I open my eyes to find more than I was looking for.
My mind screams. Knowing this is for all, but not all I want I've found.
Now I found this rock. This stable place.
The pain has gone away.
I place my hope in no other.

We are a creation, the old has gone, the new has come.

Reconciled us to Himself, through Christ Jesus.
We will be free, forever knowing what will become... of us.
Thank you for the cross. Trusting in the balance has tilted me towards righteousness.
Lifting my spirit once again, sinking not in my functioning.
Striving to tell them the truth. Inhale, exhale this is over and over again.
Looking for tomorrow forgetting about today. Striving to tell them the truth...
Dying, dying, dying, dead. Through prayer and sacrifice into all the earth, with love and understanding.
Now I look to importance, standing here steadfast, to renew the spirit within me.
Do not cast me from your presence, or take Your Holy Spirit from me.
