This Time
(joanne de seyne / andy richards)
this kind of love
consumes me
blistering love
it soothes
i feel the waves
wash over me
i can feel the waves
rise up from inside me
this time i found a way
this time I found my way to you
this time i found a way
i found a way to get to you
this time i found my way
hey!
sometimes i see
the heat rise (the waves)
shimmering (lights) sounds
of our (life) glory
i feel the waves
wash over me
i can feel the ache (feel the ache)
rise up from inside me
this time i found a way
this time I found my way to you
this time i found a way
i found a way to get to you
this time i found my way
hey! This Time!
rise
shimmering sounds
‘til I fly
mmm, i feel
i can feel the ache
rise up from inside me
this time i found my way
this time i found my way
hey! This Time
all the saints are praying
oooh, i love you
oooh
This Time!

Armour
(matty)
you stirred a tempest in my heart I know I felt it
one so devout he filled my soul with love abounding
forever close my hands will never go unknowing
i've seen a world where people powerfully changing
ah...
you are my armour
you broke the chains within my tongue your people heard you
you built the peace within the walls I’ll battle for you
i saw the ships, the dreams I’ve made, you’ve got them sailing
my life will be to you forever prevailing
ah...
you are my armour
with my breast plate on, my armour strong
I'm walking through the flames
with a sword in hand, resounding sound as they all walk away
with a breast plate on, my armour strong
I'm walking through the flames
with a sword in hand, resounding sound as they all walk away
ooooh
he turned me in and heard my world falling under
you set my feet on solid ground, you are my wonder
your every word will be to me like living water
you feed the thousands, your word like armour
Influenced by Ephesians 6:10-20, from the pen of the apostle Paul

John 3:8: “The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.”
The word spirit in both Hebrew and Greek means “breath” or “wind.” Both a breath of air and a breeze are appropriate images for the Holy Spirit

dhiyo yó nah prachodayāt
the words we said
the life we shared
the way we were
we only, only ever, had to say
au revoir...
translation of the gãyatrī mantra:
we meditate on the glory of that Being
who has produced this universe;
may He enlighten our minds)
