URGENT

URGENT

Love, I hear the storms of fear
Love, I know you cannot see it
as the night draws near
This hour of our discontent
soon changes to a year
and all our pride of purpose
fades away with all our cheer

Love, we knew that day was gonna come 
Love, we had borrowed 
more than we could ever  sum
And at the margins of our 
manic thoughts of need
was that beast of terror
waiting just to feed

Love, I feel the gentle hand of death
Love, Yes, I know it, how it 
snuffs out all our breath
I know we need to think 
that everything's the same
even as it flowers in 
our growing need to blame
Love, oh Love I hear the blaring shofar sound
Love. the day of trouble comes
to everything around
This signaled day of judgment
has all our great debts found
Our inner walls of Jericho 
will now all come down

Love, there isn't any time
Love, for you to look up from your pride and seek a holy God
And soon the terror's gonna come and 
take our mind away
Life will not hesitate
Love. make your choice today
