lyrics

I realize we aint living in the freedom
Buyin’ the lie we need more blood to pay it off
I’m walking on this troubled shore
Finding the line between your pardon and my hands

I want my resurrection please
So I’m letting go of all that I’ve seen
Don’t give me milk God I want meat

Cause I’ve been raising a boy
But I aint him anymore

Pile em’ high I need fuel to fan the season
Corner the lie this ignorance I can’t afford

I want my grace empowered peace
So I’m letting go of all that I need
So give me more God I want thee

Cause I’ve been raising a boy
Yes I’ve been raisin’ a boy
Well I got no excuse I aint just a man
I’m a Spirit son I’ve got heart and hands
Yes I’ve been raisin’ a boy
But I ain’t him anymore

I’ve been raisin’ a boy
I’ve been raisin’ a boy
Now I aint raisin’ a boy
No I ain’t raisin’ a boy

I'm super happy that I found JG's music, albeit a bit late...this album is perfect! Born Again was the song that hooked me, but, when I heard Heaven's Knife it was so painfully beautiful...I just knew I was in love! I've never heard a song that summed up Abba's intention for an ordained marriage before this...I feel it every time I listen to Heaven's Knife and it cuts so deep! Well done. "At The Table" is my second fave song...a glorious picture of God's grace for the prodigal. Thank you JG! Yaaqova
