Questions for my Quest
How bad must I want this?
A land where people practice what is preached
A land where peace and harmony is reached.
How much will this cost me?
It seems that all those who have most understood
Your commands to bring heaven here to earth
Have been forced to their eternal destination
By those who love their broken systems
And feel threatened by those who place
The power to love above the love of power.
Can I really reach this place?
The way that leads to life seems too narrow for my feet to trod.
The cup of suffering seems too large for my appetite and
You know I've had my fill of filth.
Where is this righteousness that my soul longs for?
The song that paints Your pictures that I love so much
Is not playing in my head today.
Is this tune of "Amazing Grace" all that You really want to give me?
