Above All Things

Leaves dancing over our heads in silence

As we sit and watch the stars in the sky

I begin to cry

Relaizing who I am will never be who I wanted to be

And very few people accept me for who I am

I sit in silence and ponder the world

Without me here

Without me to try to get a smile

From the overworked, underpaid man

Who would have never know the joy of laughter in the air

And the bear who would still be alive

If it weren't for my sport and my rifle

Who would have hugged his cub one more time

If it weren't for me

My sister would probably still attend church

If I hadn't dragged her there so much

She would still know the lord and would be doing his will

Rather than her pleasures

I think I'll just stay

I have more debt to pay

I'll need help on that day

I will rejoin now my true life

The only life I should have

The fire of the Lord is burnin'

The spirit of the Lord is churnin'

Like a light in the night

Burning bright in the light

Burning bright is the Lord

The one

The only

The almighty

The alive

God in all forms kills Lucifer

God is above all things

Even guitar strings

And though it might sting

It is the truth

All I shall have is the Lord

And a life with him is true
