A Greater Foundation - As I Lay Dying

Reality no longer battles perception

This letter's written to no one

Sincere

I sought your truth and divine purpose

Through myths of revelation

Guidance all wrapped up in a paper box

Supported only so long

As my mind was the enemy

I could not in conscience hold on

AS WE face distress WE MUST not lose heart

STAND FAST and press on

TRIUMPH AWAIT

AS WE face distress WE MUST not lose heart

STAND FAST and press on

TRIUMPH AWAITS us

The powerful constant that I had once leaned on is no longer there

You call this shameful disbelief

A process like losing my closest friend

AS WE face distress WE MUST not lose heart

STAND FAST and press on

TRIUMPH AWAITS

AS WE face distress WE MUST not lose heart

STAND FAST and press on

TRIUMPH AWAITS us

Sometimes we have to watch our whole lives fall apart

Before we can rebuild them again - a greater foundation

I wish there was another way

But no amount of devotion can fix this

Triumph awaits

Sometimes we have to watch our whole lives fall apart

Before we can rebuild them again - a greater foundation
