The Element Surprise: Opinions of (Im-)Mortals pt. 3-4
III. DELUDED NOTION

Overturn the Kingdom of Righteousness, shall we!
Let's make ourselves sovereign
Over our own lives
We serve no one but ourselves
Fear not, slaves are all we own
We must be worshipped
While, in fear of life,
the object of worship
shall be entitled
to the beastly master

IV. THE COVENANT WAY

What a precious birthright is ours!
I tell you, do all what you can do
Time is runnin out for you
Yes, you think so am I
However, Greater is the One
who owns all the time,
just came right on time,
to make it all up for me
Everything falls into place
ever since I've been redeemed
by the enduring mercy and grace

You can turn both my feet limp
You can wear me out invariably
You can crush me 'til it all gone cramped
You can desert me in the wilderness
You can abandon me in the valley
None of your evil workings succeed
to govern this life that I'm living,
nor fail the works of God from happening
My Rescuer has always turned things around for the highest good

Mustn't be you who belongs the victory
Too far your name has lost its glory
Since the Ultimate Glory never fits
the crown on your head,
where the right size belongs to
and only meant for the measure
of your pride

You believe but make me disbelieve
that my birth is, matter of fact,
wonderfully purpose-driven
in which His Ways always prevail
Always a benefit to you when I doubt it
Don't wanna waste this breath
I wanna know who breathes Life
Deeply intrigued by the knowledge of Him
where I've come to seek and renew
my understanding higher above,
or so I have finally decided
