To test this gold for its worth is the same as testing me
And the fire burns easily today
The net is the good that's left after the metal is refined
As I melt, look at what I've got and
Separate it all from what I need
I'll take anything, anything genuine
Looking up from where I went, I could take whatever I get
I'll take anything, anything genuine

Go on up to the mountain of mercy
To the crimson perpetual tide
Kneel down on the shore
Be thirsty no more
Go under and be purified

Follow Christ to the holy mountain
Sinner sorry and wrecked by the fall

Hark the herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn King!
Peace on earth and mercy mild
God and sinners reconciled"
Joyful, all ye nations rise
Join the triumph of the skies
With the angelic host proclaim:
"Christ is born in Bethlehem"

In the first light of a new day
No one knew, no one knew He had arrived
Things continued as they had been
While a newborn, a newborn softly cried
But the heavens (But the heavens wrapped in wonder)
Knew the meaning (Knew the meaning of His birth)
In the weakness of a baby
They knew God had come to earth

Flying high with the crowd at night
We float on unseen fuel
Each one sails, a gossamer sphere
Our course unwinds like thread from a spool

What's it like inside the bubble?
Say the souls who'd like to try
Cut your tether, come and join me

When time shall slip its cog in place
And spin its line of lovely lace
Then love and peace come face to face
One of these days

When sorrow can nowhere be found
And greed shall lay its weapons down
And hate give up without a sound

Forgive me if I've been confused
Between the means and end
I forgot to be a brother and a friend
Covered up inside
Sometimes it's harder to know
I have failed at this scenario

My faults do run deep

So he sat behind his natural defenses
And there he wrestled with the song
He heard his name in every line, his life in every measure
Faced with feelings he could not explain

There was hunger in his hollow hesitation
There was posturing for peace
But even where the spirit willed the flesh was still maintaining
