Rocks Would Scream


Rocks Would Scream-Silence is Killing Me

Silence Is,

Silence Is,

Killing Me

My Silence Is

My Silence Is

Killing You and Me

These Rocks could scream it

But it shouldn’t have to be that way

Chorus:

Take this heart

But not just for today

Take my words

And have Your Say

Take these hands

And rearrange 

All my labor

Into fruit that saves

Into fruit that saves

These rocks could scream

But it shouldn’t have to be that way

-Silence Is

Silence Is

Silence is Not the Way

I am

I have been

Ready for a change

Chorus:

Take this heart

But not just for today

Take my words

And have Your Say

Take these hands

And rearrange 

All my labor

Into fruit that saves

Into fruit that saves

These rocks could scream

But it shouldn’t have to be that way

-The children cry

And it shouldn’t have to be that way

Were missing Love

Were kissing pain

And Lord it stabs your heart

Shouldn’t it do mine the same?

Silence is,

Silence is, 

My Silence is killing You and me

It’s just the same

People dying inside and out 

Every single day

My Rock is crying streams

But it shouldn’t be this way

My silence is,

Killing you and me

Prayer for The Rocks That Could Scream

King Worthy of Our Worship

We come to you with an Apology for our Silence

We come to you in Repentance for giving the Affection due You to Another

We come to you today in place of our other Lovers

Lovers of Entertainment and Pleasure, of Glory and Gold, of Comfort and our own Kingdom Come

We ask that you remove the Scepters from our own “Empires of Dirt”

We ask that you help us Cast Our Crowns at your Feet and not just our Needs

We need your help to seek your Face and not just your Hand

We need your Help to seek not your Treasures and your Glory

We have found cheap substitutes in Tradition and Religion, for your Spirit and your Truth

We have forgotten that the fortune one is he who finds your Heart

“But an hour is coming—it is here now—when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father is seeking such people as His worshipers. God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.” John 4:23

Winter The trees lay bare,  I try not to stare But their nakedness tells a story. They once gave shade,  but now they...
