Maurice's Book of a Martyr
LORD make me to know my end
That I may know how fragile I am
This prayer went up to God above
Down came this vision I can't get rid of
I'm on the floor I'm inside of me now
I'm stuck in the head there's a cloud in my eye
I'm about to fly LORD willing there's a way
Steal away steal away to Jesus
When it's time to go I wanna
Fly like a beam
Soar like an eagle
Flow like the stream
Right now I am in a terrible stress
It feels like my soul got a flesh to undress
Get a place of your own
Your name in stone
Let the shofar guide you home
Listen up he said young soul
I Am the bright and morning star
This earth will pass away
And I cannot guarantee you another day
Cause the wind will blow
Change will come
Hear the church bell toll yeah
It tolls for thee
It tolls for me
It tolls for everyone you see
And it tolls for us
Like it tolls for the martyr
For your love
Your son and your daughter
Follow me
See me naked stoned and stabbed
I won't miss the life that I never had
I won't seize the day
Cause I will die today
Hangman are you talking to me
Me who Who am I
You're looking at a man
Who will learn to fly
Though I'm on the floor
In this pool of death
My lungs are jammed
Now there is blood in my breath
Then all of a sudden
I hover in the ceiling
Can not believe my eyes
It's not a good feeling
To see thy self in that vicious red
The blood on the floor
Used to be in my head
Now I am baggage on the freedom train
That wind blows from the green and blue again
Left foot peg foot I'm traveling on
The LORD is my shepherd as I hide from the sun
Give me a signal when it's time to run
I'm sometimes up and I'm sometimes down
My soul feels heavenly bound
This double R strain me underground
Sleeping in the basement six feet below
I can hear the whistle thru the dust patio
God bless you Hubbard it's my time to go
Swing low sweet chariot carry me home
"I looked at my hands am I the same
There was such an glory o'er everything" (Harriet "Moses" Tubman)
Though I'm not in the mirror
I am mind and soul and
The Day Star declares within my heart
I will shine my light upon your face
For all eternity
There will be no more sun
I will be the only one
The tabernacle of God
Will be with men
And he will dwell with them
You are on the way just stay away
From the vanity under the sun
A bright white light blinds my eyes
A voice tells to me you're in paradise
Here you don't cry
There's nothing to buy
You can not sell your soul
You have reached your goal
Come with me let's take a stroll on the gold
This is the place beyond time and space
Have no fear you are safe here
No violence on the street
No below no elite
No yes-no
No deceit
You know what I mean
God is all in all and everything in between
Where have you been my beheaded son
On earth to end the journey I begun
How did you like it
The flesh felt like a pen
Tell me how long
Since I was born again
You will enter my rest when time is due
Behold I make all things new
Wont cry no more fear no more
Sun shine no more no
Moon disappear your time is up
You are not welcome here no
Martyr listen up son you go back
Live and reign with Christ for a thousand years
LORD make me to know my end
That I may know how fragile I am
This prayer went up to God above
Down came this vision I can't get rid of
That I may know how fragile I am
This prayer went up to God above
Down came this vision I can't get rid of
I'm on the floor I'm inside of me now
I'm stuck in the head there's a cloud in my eye
