Thy Word Expiate - Story Version
Thy Word Expiate (Story Version)
It was a dark night
And the wind blew so very hard
It was a night
Where some souls
May not make it home
But this time
Things were different
For the man in the story
Gave his life to God
I’m tied like a dog to a tree
The prince of darkness stands over me
I’m bound in the cruelest slavery
I’m locked in a cage of insanity
Does anyone see?
Does anyone care?
Or am I here alone?
Does anyone see?
Does anyone hear?
Or am I here alone?
I’m paralyzed by his venomous sting
I’m bound to my sin like a puppet on a string
I’m snared in this evil time
I’m chained in the darkness
The darkness of my mind
Thy Word expiate
Propitiate
Liberate
Thy Word
Reaching high
Giving sight
Living light
Thy Word is the key to be free
It’s the key to live in the sight of a Holy God
Thy Word
Breaking asunder
The sin that I’m under
Trampling it down to the ground
Even unto dust
Unto dust
I’m born in this pit of sin
Who can draw me out
From the lust of the flesh
And the lust of the eyes
And from my pride and doubt
Save me
Save me now
Lest I die
Save me
Oh Lord
Hear my cry
Lord
Hear my cry
Does He see
Does He care
Or am I here alone
Does He see
Does He hear
Or am I here alone
A ray of light
A ray of hope
A rope of faith and love
A strong arm
A descending hand
As gentle as a dove
I’m out of the dark
I’m out of the night
I am not a slave
I am a prince
I am a son
I’m ransomed from the grave
Thy Word
Expiate
Propitiate
Liberate
Thy Word
Reaching high
Giving sight
The Living light
Thy Word is the key to be free
It’s the key to live in the sight of a Holy God
Thy Word
Breaking asunder
The sin that I’m under
Trampling it down to the ground
Even unto dust
Follow the Son
Follow the Christ
The Rock of my salvation
Follow the Son
Follow the Christ
The Redeemer of my life
Jesus sees
Jesus hears
And I am not alone
And that was the story of the young man on the road that night
About Us:
This world is a dry and weary land.
All around us are people dying for a drink of fresh, new life.
In the Bible, drought and famine were used as a symbol of the lack or withdrawal of God's blessing.
Like the prodigal son and the lost sheep, we have all chosen to leave the safety and security of God's love and favor, enticed by our own lusts and the alluring but empty and deadly deceptions of the enemy of our souls.
We find ourselves lost, alone, broken, hungry, thirsty and on the brink of death.
But none have strayed so far that they cannot return.
Cry out to Him for help and surrender your life back to Him.
He promised He would take you back, always.
We pray the music ministry of The Rain refreshes your dry and weary soul, and opens your heart for the outpouring of God's Holy Spirit in these end times.
And if you want to use any of the instrumental tracks to sing to at your church or other live function, please feel free! We would love that. We love radio play too! Feel free to play any and all songs and tracks on your radio station or website if you have one. Spreading God's love through music makes us happy. God inhabits the praise of His people!
Love,
Nick and Lauren
