Face The Day

What fear and hatred have they shown me through these years?
My destination now becomes so clear
Held me tight, and hate me now
Embrace me, now they doubt
Always blind to the real view,
they chose to ignore the truth
Ignore the truth
Desperate, on my knees
Praying for tranquility
How do you live romancing the shadows
when I've devoted every breath to you?
You stone the prophets and you mock my words
Oh, Father, let this cup pass from me
if there be any other way
My flesh is weak, and I am lonely
Give me the strength to face the day
The strength to face the day
I face this future by myself
No comfort is by my side
All hell unleashed to wage a war
inside my distraught mind
Tormenting voices deafening,
but focused I will remain
I'll bear this burden until the end
My life will not end in vain
No...no...
The beads of crimson fall from my face
This is the only way
Distractions crumble to the ground
Take hold of my destiny
Fulfill the prophecy
I'll be salvation's martyr
Not my will, but Yours be done, oh, Father
Won't You lead the Lamb...lead this Lamb unto the slaughter?
Because of who You are, my life I freely give
