I Am Living In A Land Of Death

Verse 1: I'm living in a land of death the trees are burning grey there's a smoldering smoke overhead and the night looks the same as the day it seems a miracle that I can stand when everyone i've known drifts up in the air with the ash every time that the wind starts to blow Pre-chorus: but i feel alive with a life that's not mine your law is a stream in this wasteland - my lifeline so much more than precious gold are your promises my lord by them is your servant warned in keeping them great reward Verse 3: your direction is marked in light your law secures my wounds i will meditate day and night and in season you'll harvest your fruit Verse 4: though a poison should threaten to kill i know my Savior reigns and when the breezes of death leave a chill I've got Jesus' blood in my veins Pre-chorus 2: So i feel alive with a life that's not mine and i'm believing that that is your intended design so much more than precious gold are your promises my lord by them is your servant warned in keeping them great reward Interlude Bridge: The kingdoms of man have all decayed the ruins of progress turn to waste the gods of greed lay in their graves darkness is everywhere but there's a path in the dark that has emerged i can see a great light beyond this curse a brilliant blaze that is your word a beacon of hope that burns Outro: and I focus my captivated gaze on the radiant light from Jesus' face the water of life is all i crave only your word remains So much more than precious gold is the beauty I behold give me the glorious reward of knowing you my king, my lord
