Cadences

In one sense we are always travelling
And travelling as if we do not know where we are going
In another sense we have already arrived
We cannot arrive at the perfect possession of love in this life
And that is why we are travelling and travelling in this darkness
But we already possess love by grace
And therefore in that sense we have arrived
And are dwelling in that light
But Oh! How far are you and I go to
find that love in whom we have arrived

Will you stand with us?
As the sun goes down
on an another day
We'll keep singing
For those who never made it out alive
For those who never make it out alive
Here is something
indestructible
Something we're fighting for
And we're breaking down the door

I have to learn these verses
If only in this moment
That I am with you
Remember all the words you said,
(Remember all the words)
These cadences,
These songs I will remember

I need a strong and generous heart
if you are feeding us
The bread of tears
Burn paradise and douse the flames
Burn Paradise
So we are living for today
