words and music
cross.eps
take me to the place
where the ocean meets the sky
where the golden shores of Heaven
beneath the deep blue lie

cast away all mortal sins
and everlasting guilt
raise my voice to deaf Heaven
break down the walls we’ve built

the mystic aura that surrounds you all
leaves me in a daze
I’ll banish the wounds that inflict me pain
and carry the cross for days

stick a needle in my eye
cross my heart and hope to die
a desperate cry—enough’s enough
curtains are down, call the blind man’s bluff

     deep, deep is the ocean
     deep as the slumber of eternal sleep

say a prayer for a clear sunset
watch me drift under liquid sky
no hard feelings and no regrets
as we sound the battle cry

the poisoned arrow that you shot astray
is lodged within me deep
I float in darkness, out loud I pray
the Lord my precious soul to keep
songs
