Yesterday

Yesterday was as good as it gets not full of rejects/
Your right you woulda guessed I was moving in steps/
Ordained by the Father, studied and I prayed if I may interject my study was on the way/
I was depraved now I'm living in grace home/let His light shine its sunny and grace know/
I didn't write rhymes though I felt close to Him/
I'm alive in the Spirit no boast in skin/
See my eyes in the mirror their close to dim coz its late though if you redeemed say so/
And so I do – I'm in tune with the truth that Noah knew, so yesterday is the day that I'm going to/
Or at least I need to be there/
Yesterday the memory just seems clear and so I sit here with nothing really left to say except can you take me back to yesterday I guess
Oh Lord, I've been here before/
One day things are great and my mind is on the cross – that was yesterday/
Is where I need to be again, we were close with no pretense so I pray oh oh
can you take me back to yesterday (where there was peace, there was love, there was hope, there was joy, there was us) can you take me back to yesterday my God x2

I studied the word with the right equitte/ Felt like Jim Elliot/ Eyes on He who died the cross of Christ/
Singing songs to the Son who restored my life/
I'm at one with One who endured the strips/
The ransom was paid, the Lamb who was slain was ample to save/
I'm amped for the King, huh yesterday I would stand and proclaim/me and Will we prayed for the youth/
I mean it I cried for lost souls in the coupe/
The scene that I tried to paint better than the one I know I read Romans 8 letters just to comfort my soul, I know its nostalgia but them odd hours/
Yesterday Is when I knew my Lord's power/aint nothing really left to say except, can you take me back to yesterday I guess/

Oh Lord, I've been here before/
One day things are great and my mind is on the cross – that was yesterday/
Is where I need to be again, we were close with no pretense so I pray oh oh
can you take me back to yesterday (where there was peace, there was love, there was hope, there was joy, there was us) can you take me back to yesterday my God x2

This day known as the present don't feel like a gift at all/
Wish the walls had wrong they could speak my wrong/
My mind couldn't do it heart leaked my fall/
I lied that I was fine but was least involved/
In my time the bottom line is, I fall for women who flutter eyelids/
And I'm sitting down with Alex and I tell him I just wanna be pure, hear my hearts cry Lord I just wanna be Yours/
And that's what I wanna be, eternal secure in Your arms take all of me/
But what I see and feel is me being distant/
Its different in fields but the seems of the mistress stay the same/
Aint it plain what I need, yesterday/
But today's what I see what's left in me/
Aint nothing really left to say except/
Can You take me back to yesterday I guess
