Lashes-My Epic

Find me and wash me
cause I can’t see the stains
my God I’m so scared
Cause I’m so fractured but I don’t feel the breaks

Pour | My Epic

God, save us from our good intentions.
What you meant to be organic we’ve refined into an engine.
We call it progress, but we forget that even water is poison if we breathe it.
Just how much can we love when we’re spread so thin… spread so thin?
Just how much can we love when we’re spread so thin?
Where are the naked prophets? Where are their harlot wives?
How can the Spirit move when His body parts don’t coincide?
These times are complicated so we compartmentalize,
there are few burdens shared just seldom intersecting lives…
Satan came and offered up the kingdom whole,
Messiah refused, then took it man by man.
Pharisees thought he would topple the empires,
but He changed the world by caring for men, not the systems they create.
Temples for the temples? Systems for the Spirit? 
We became the temples, so let’s build each other.
Could we hear the Spirit if we just lived simpler?
Everybody go and grab your neighbors! Let’s all sink our roots and see a harvest!
Nobody alive has all the answers, but Abba bears the load when love is hard!

Sound and Fury | My Epic

“You can’t keep living in shadows and not belong to the darkness.”

“Ashes” - My Epic

“I’m not gonna make it if You don’t remake me. No, I won’t ever make it unless You remake me.

I’ll carry Grace like a flame. Only You could refine. Perfect! Perfect!
Find in me the things to stay. Burn us bright but not away… bright but not away.”

“Perfector” - My Epic

In light of the recent tsunami. Keep Japan in your prayers, and keep safe on the west coast.

I’m still a young man so I think very little of death, but who really does till it’s coming for them? And I know with each breath I come one closer, but death is just a hook behind the door where I’ll leave my dirty clothes….

They may dump my body in the sea or  spread my ashes miles wide, but it won’t matter, all my parts will realign. They will rush to find each other when they hear their Lover’s cry and death will be abandoned when He comes back for His bride!

Saints are never buried, they are seeds planted who bring about a greater harvest when they burst forth from the earth that needed their fruits, but it could never hope to make enough room for their roots.

Death is swallowed up, it owns nothing in me! Oh, death is swallowed up, it owns nothing in me!

Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His faithful ones!
Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His faithful ones! Oh, death is swallowed up!

Oh, it was always You! It was always You! Oh, it was always You! It was always You!
Oh, it was always You! It was always You! Oh, it was always You! It was always You!
Oh, it was always You! It was always You!

I have nothing new to say. The world is so terribly big, it keeps spinning and shaking loose all my constants and making me see that the sun has been burning too long to have not shed its light in every direction.

All I know is that beautiful in me is You… beautiful in me is You.
(All… I… know…) Every good thing, every true thing, beautiful in me is You, beautiful in me is You.
(All… I… know…) Every good thing, every true thing, beautiful in me is You, beautiful in me is You.
(All… I… know…) Every good thing, every true thing, beautiful in me is You, beautiful in me is You.

I see a thousand young men, they’re all marching in time with the war on their doorsteps and their lovers behind them, and all of their glory flows back to their master, but they care not for honor, for they wear His robes.

I’m tired of striving to be, who You already say that I am. I am Yours…

Take what You need to take, say what You need to say to make me who I am meant to be, You can have it all. Take what You need to take, say what You need to say to make me who I am meant to be, You can have it all.

word. i never thought a hardcore song would bring me to a place of worship, and i don’t even like hardcore/rock music. this is the most legit band i have in my music library, and i can’t stop listening.

“Further Up / Further In” - My Epic

“Last year, for just one moment You came near as time stood still, You crushed my wits. The hairs on my neck all stood stiff, everything made sense, there was not one rift in anything I could see. You were the only thing I could see.”
