REVOLUTION
And they say
That in libraries long ago
Were found books
Hidden and closed
They were for a very few
To read ~ to find
Those who looked
With eyes wide open
Rarely found the treasures hidden
They were surely in plain sight
That was not the problem
It was a matter of the heart
And where the heart was drawn
You can look and look
And never find
But I tell you the Truth
This last generation
Will find the books hidden
They will find them
And read them
Until their hearts are changed,
Their spirits ignited
And they are fully commissioned
By the King
Gather around the Table
Sup if you choose
But never say that the Truth
Or the Power was unavailable
It is right HERE and NOW
However so often
What we find is
empty chairs at empty tables
Empty Chairs at Empty Tables
There's a grief that can't be spoken,
There's a pain goes on and on.
Empty chairs at empty tables,
Now my friends are dead and gone.
Here they talked of revolution,
Here it was they lit the flame,
Here they sang about tomorrow
and tomorrow never came.
From the table in the corner,
They could see a world reborn,
And they rose with voices ringing,
And I can hear them now
The very words that they have sung
Became their last communion
On this lonely barricade, at dawn.
Oh my friends, my friends forgive me
That I live and you are gone
There's a grief that can't be spoken,
And there's a pain goes on and on
Phantom faces at the window,
Phantom shadows on the floor,
Empty chairs at empty tables
where my friends will meet no more.
Oh my friends, my friends don't ask me
What your sacrifice was for
Empty chairs at empty tables
Where my friend will sing no more.
Les Miserables
Does it have to be this way?
Generation after generation
Has spoken of revolution
Has spoken of revival
Many have sacrificed their lives
To spread the Gospel
But we sit now
In our comfortable churches
Waiting for God to move us
From our pews
And the chairs are empty
About His Table
The Table of True Communion surely gone
For we have a new religion now
And we sing so loudly and clearly
But the people no longer come
For the Breath of God is faint
Within us
It has no power to call them,
To teach them
We are no longer empowered
by the Holy Spirit
But we could be
We should be
Have you not heard
The simple Truth
Of His Life Breathed out
To impassion us
For REVOLUTION?
Empty chairs at empty tables . . .
Doesn't have to be this way
Eat until you are full
And fully commissioned
By the Father
To do Mighty works across this earth
And then we will all sing as one
3 new books
of the REVOLUTION
brought to the Table today.
It is time for the
REVOLUTIONARY BRIDE
To RISE UP!
