Return To Me

Return to Me, says the Lord of hosts
Return to Me, says the Lord of hosts
and I will return to you
I will return to you
I am zealous for Jerusalem
And for Zion with great zeal
I am exceedingly angry with the nations at ease
For I was a little angry, and they helped - but with evil intent
Oh Lord, how long will you not have mercy on Jerusalem and on the cities of Judah
the Lord answered the angel with good and comforting words
Return to Me, says the Lord of hosts
Return to Me, says the Lord of hosts
and I will return to you
I will return to Jerusalem with mercy
My house shall be built there
says the Lord of hosts
The towns shall again spread out through prosperity
Jerusalem will once again be His chosen city
He will comfort the people of Zion
(short solo)
Run and tell that young man
Jerusalem will become a city without walls
I will be a wall of fire around it, says the Lord
and I will be the glory within it
Then the Lord says to the nation which plunder you
For he who touches you touches the apple of His eyes
I will shake my hand against them, and they shall become spoil for their servants
Then you will know that the Lord of hosts has sent Me
The Lord rebuke you, Satan!
The Lord who has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you!
Is this not a brand plucked from the fire?
The Angel said to Joshua
I have taken away your sin
now I will clothe you with beautiful robes
Let them put a clean turban on his head
Listen, Joshua, the high priest
You are a sign of things to come
I will bring my servant
The name is Branch
I put this stone in front of you
A stone with seven sides
I will carve a message on it
Says the Lord of hosts
And in one day I will take away the sin of this land
(guitar solo)
Return to Me, says the Lord of hosts
Return to Me, says the Lord of hosts
and I will return to you
I will return to you
Behold, I will save My people from the land of the east and the land of the west
I will bring them back
and they shall dwell in the midst of Jerusalem
They shall be My people and I will be their God
In truth and righteousness
And the Lord will be King over the whole world
On that day, there will be only one Lord and His name will be the only name

To Rome

This is the day
My journey starts here
I can’t wait anymore
I saw a sign
I saw an illusion
I heard an angel sing
Everything I learned
It was not in vain
My eyes are open
Now everything is new
To Rome
I have to go
Now that’s the purpose of my life
Cross the sea
Into a storm
It can do no harm to me
Because He is with me I won’t be afraid
Where is my Rome
That’s where you see my tombstone
I’m here to give you something
That’s a spirit of love
What are you waiting for
Get up and say His name
It’s time to wash away your sins
You saw the light
You heard the voice
Now come to the place you are led
Everything I did
I know it was all wrong
Once my eyes are open
Nothing is the same
To Rome
I have to go
Now that’s the mission of my life
Coast to coast
Breaking the chains
They can do no harm to me
Because He is with me I won’t be afraid
Where is my Rome
That’s where I bear my cross
I will be there to change the world
Hurry out, hurry out
Go out of Jerusalem
For they don’t accept your testimony about me
Hurry out, hurry out
Get out of Jerusalem
I will send you from here to the Gentiles
(Guitar Solo)
To Rome
I have to go
Now that’s the purpose of my life
Cross the sea
Into a storm
It can do no harm to me
Because He is with me I won’t be afraid
Where is my Rome
That’s where you see my tombstone
I’m here to give you something
That’s a spirit of love
Hurry out, hurry out
What are you waiting for
It’s time for you to wash away your sins
Hurry out, hurry out
What are you waiting for
It’s time for you to change the fate of the world

Seek Me And Live
04:18

Do they walk together unless they have planned beforehand
Will a lion roar in woods, when there is no prey
Just like people get afraid when they hear a trumpet blow in a town
Who will not prophesy when The Lord God has spoken
Children of Israel, listen to the word of the Lord
You are the only ones I have chosen of all the people on the earth
He made the mountains and created the wind
Now He shows His plans to the world
He walks over the highest places on the earth
The Lord God of hosts is His name
Now listen, the house of Jacob Says the God of hosts
The day I punish Israel for their sins I will bring destruction on the altars of Bethel
All the horns of the altar will fall to the ground
The winter house and the summer house will be both destroyed
Seek Me and live Don’t seek help from anything else
Seek the Lord and live For other things shall come to nothing
The One who made the Pleiades and Orion
Turns the shadow of death into morning
He calls for the water of the sea and pours them out on the face of the earth
The Lord God of hosts is His name
Behold, Children of Israel, when the day has come
I will send a famine to the whole world
Not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water
But of hearing the words of the Lord
You wander from sea to sea, from north to east,
But you will never find them
You will never find them
Seek the Lord and live
Says the God of hosts
Seek good and not evil
So the Lord God of hosts will be with you
He surely will answer your prayer

Silently

Deceit-
That’s what we did
I keel down in a shadow
I don’t know where it all went wrong
But I know what I did there
Vanity and lie
That’s the best we got
Our virtue lighter than a breath
My soul be silent just waiting for Him
I see the light
In the darkness of my heart
Shining like an angel
Spread its wings
I saw it fly away
Now I can’t see it anymore
Oh Lord resurrect my soul
Oh Lord please change my life
Oh Lord resurrect this whole world
Get us back on track, back to its real shape
Please let there be hope
‘Cause I believe in You
Ohhh
Failure-
That’s all we got
We are like a leaning wall, a broken fence
We can’t just give up our sins
Hurt and tired
The world has lost its color
I hear no sound in this empty cage of my own soul
My dried soul
Desperately waiting for your love to come
As the world is falling down
I’m waiting for your love to come
My soul waits for You
Silently
I hear the sound
Calling me from distance
Echoing like a prophecy
Opening my mind
There is no going back
I just want a new life
Oh Lord resurrect my soul
Oh Lord please change my life
Oh Lord resurrect this whole world
Get us back on track, back to its real shape
Please let there be hope
‘Cause I believe in You
Ohhh
