Lyrics Disciple – The Ballad Of St. Augustine

Verse 1
The air is leaving here
It’s getting hard to breathe, I’m choking
Matthew 13:22

The fracture was innocent
A miniature compromise that exploded
James 1:15

Inside my atmosphere
And now the paradigm is shifting
John 8:34

A good man was living here
Virtuous evidence has all but disappeared
James 2:10

Chorus 1
Right was wrong when wrong went right
Romans 1:22; Romans 7:15
I’m fading
Black has turned to gray inside
Revelation 3:16
And I know that I need saving, can You save me?
Psalm 130:1-8
Take me away to where You are
John 14:3
Cause I won’t leave without it
Genesis 32:26

Verse 2
Involuntary fast
The bread that never lasts, I’m starving
Matthew 4:4

Sanity shackled here

Revelation sings
Justice delivery is blinding
Proverbs 1:2-3

My death is imminent
I’d rather die with You than utterly alone
2 Samuel 24:14

Chorus 2
Welcome back my innocence
Psalm 32:1-2
How I have so longed to see your face again
Psalm 51:11-12
Overwhelmed I say goodbye
As the pages turn I say goodbye
Passing by the end of my life
2 Corinthians 5:17

Bridge
Pages turn, memories burning away
Ashes celebrate
Hebrews 12:29
You’re washing me, consuming me
Revelation 1:5
As I’m falling on Your sword
Ephesians 6:17
You’re washing me, branding me with grace
Galatians 6:17; 2 Corinthians 12:9
Innocence reborn
John 3:3; 1 Peter 1:23

Psalm 51:1-17; Psalm 32:1-7
