Songs Of Faith And Devotion



I Feel You

I feel you
Your sun it shines
I feel you
Within my mind
You take me there
You take me where
The kingdom comes
You take me to
And lead me through
Babylon 
This is the morning of our love
It's just the dawning of our love 
I feel you
Your heart it sings
I feel you
The joy it brings
Where heaven waits
Those golden gates
And back again
You take me to
And lead me through
Oblivion 
This is the morning of our love
It's just the dawning of our love 
I feel you
Your precious soul
And I am whole
I feel you
Your rising sun
My kingdom comes 
I feel you
Each move you make
I feel you
Each breath you take
Where angels sing
And spread their wings
My love's on high
You take me home
To glory's throne
By and by 
This is the morning of our love
It's just the dawning of our love

Walking in My Shoes

I would tell you about the things
They put me through
The pain I've been subjected to
But the Lord himself would blush
The countless feasts laid at my feet
Forbidden fruits for me to eat
But I think your pulse would start to rush 
Now I'm not looking for absolution
Forgiveness for the things I do
But before you come to any conclusions
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes 
You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
If you try walking in my shoes 
Morality would frown upon
Decency look down upon
The scapegoat fate's made of me
But I promise now, my judge and jurors
My intentions couldn't have been purer
My case is easy to see 
I'm not looking for a clearer conscience
Peace of mind after what I've been through
And before we talk of any repentance
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes 
You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes 
Now I'm not looking for absolution
Forgiveness for the things I do
But before you come to any conclusions
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes 
You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes 
You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes

Condemnation

Condemnation
Tried
Here on the stand
With the book in my hand
And truth on my side 
Accusations
Lies
Hand me my sentence
I'll show no repentance
I'll suffer with pride 
If for honesty
You want apologies
I don't sympathize
If for kindness
You substitute blindness
Please open your eyes 
Condemnation
Why
Because my duty
Was always to beauty
And that was my crime 
Feel elation
High
To know I can trust this
Fix of injustice
Time after time 
If you see purity
As immaturity
Well it's no surprise
If for kindness
You substitute blindness
Please open your eyes

Mercy in You

You know what I need
When my heart bleeds
I suffer from greed
A longing to feed
On the mercy in you 
I can't conceal
The way I'm healed
The pleasure I feel
When I have to deal
With the mercy in you 
I would do it all again
Lose my way and fall again
Just so I could call again
On the mercy in you 
When here in my mind
I feel inclined
To wrongly treat you unkind
I have faith I will find
The mercy in you 
I would lose my way again
Be led hopelessly astray again
Just so I could pray again
For the mercy in you 
When here in my mind
I have been blind
Emotionally behind
I have faith I will find
The mercy in you 

Judas

Is simplicity best
Or simply the easiest
The narrowest path
Is always the holiest
So walk on barefoot for me
Suffer some misery
If you want my love
If you want my love 
Man will survive
The harshest conditions
And stay alive
Through difficult decisions
So make up your mind for me
Walk the line for me
If you want my love
If you want my love 
Idle talk
And hollow promises
Cheating Judases
Doubting Thomases
Don't just stand there and shout it
Do something about it 
You can fulfil
Your wildest ambitions
And I'm sure you will
Lose your inhibitions
So open yourself for me
Risk your health for me
If you want my love
If you want my love
If you want my love
If you want my love

In Your Room

In your room
Where time stands still
Or moves at your will
Will you let the morning come soon
Or will you leave me lying here
In your favourite darkness
Your favourite half-light
Your favourite consciousness
Your favourite slave 
In your room
Where souls disappear
Only you exist here
Will you lead me to your armchair
Or leave me lying here
Your favourite innocence
Your favourite prize
Your favourite smile
Your favourite slave 
I'm hanging on your words
living on your breath
feeling with your skin
Will I always be here 
In your room
Your burning eyes
Cause flames to arise
Will you let the fire die down soon
Or will I always be here
Your favourite passion
Your favourite game
Your favourite mirror
Your favourite slave 
I'm hanging on your words
living on your breath
feeling with your skin
Will I always be here

Get Right with Me

I will have faith in man
That is hard to understand
Show some humility
You have the ability
Get right with me 
Friends, if you've lost your way
You will find it again some day
Come down from your pedestals
And open your mouths that's all
Get right with me 
Life is such a short thing
That I cannot comprehend
But if this life were a bought thing
There are ways I know we'd mend 
People, take my advice
Already told you once, once or twice
Don't waste your energy
Making apologies
Get right with me

Rush

Walk with me
Open your sensitive mouth
And talk to me
Hold out your delicate hands
And feel me
Couldn't make any plans
To conceal me 
Open your sensitive mouth
Hold out your delicate hands
With such a sensitive mouth
I'm easy to see through
When I come up
When I rush
I rush for you 
Cry for you
Seen the tears
Roll down from my eyes for you
Heard my truth
Distorting to lies for you
Watched my love
Becoming a prize for you 
Seen the tears in my eyes
Heard my truth turn to lies
Seen the tears in my eyes
I'm not proud of what I do
When I come up
When I rush
I rush for you 
I come up to meet you
Up there somewhere
When I rush to greet you
My soul is bared 
Gave more for you
Dropped my crutches
And crawled on the floor for you
Went looking behind every door for you
And because of the things
That I saw for you
I spiritually grew 
When I come up
When I rush
I rush for you

One Caress

Well I'm down on my knees again
And I pray to the only one
Who has the strength
To bear the pain
To forgive all the things that I've done 
Oh Girl
Lead me into your darkness
When this world is trying it's hardest
To leave me unimpressed
Just one caress
From you and I'm blessed 
When you think you've tried every road
Every avenue
Take one more look
At what you found old
And in it you'll find something new 
I'm shying from the light
I always loved the night
And now you offer me eternal darkness 
I have to believe that sin
Can make a better man
It's the mood that I am in
That left us back where we began

Higher Love

I can taste more than feel
This burning inside is so real
I can almost lay my hands upon
The warm glow that lingers on 
Moved, lifted higher
Moved, my soul's on fire
Moved, by a higher love 
I surrender all control
To the desire that consumes me whole
Leads me by the hand to infinity
Lies in wait at the heart of me 
Moved, lifted higher
Moved, my soul's on fire
Moved, by a higher love 
Heaven bound on the wings of love
There's so much that you can rise above 
Moved, lifted higher
Moved, moved, by a higher love
By a higher love 
I surrender heart and soul
Sacrificed to a higher goal 
Moved, moved by a higher love
By a higher love
