Side Door
[From the album Private Parts & Pieces]
Seven long years have gone by
Scattered in the wind
Fortunes made and squandered
Odd has become growing day
Seven long years have now passed
Neither glimpse nor word
All the dew that vanished
Though the case lay undisturbed
Seven long years have I spent
Trying to forget
But no man can vanish
Heaven he has sought and met
Though the trails and the tears
Still I cannot learn
Ever hopeless dreaming
Perhaps someday you will return
Home For The Holidays
Standing up on the outside,
Falling down within,
Looking righteous as a pharisee,
Filled with guilt and sin,
Trying to walk with Jesus
the strait and narrow road,
Holding on to this world,
I just could not let go,
That's such a heavy road.
Chorus
Come and break the yoke Lord,
Come and set this child free,
Come tear down the walls of pride
and all I hide beneath,
Freedom always came to those
who receive the words you spoke,
I receive your word, break the yoke,
I receive your word, break the yoke.
Praying with my brother
is such a precious
Falling down within,
Looking righteous as a pharisee,
Filled with guilt and sin,
Trying to walk with Jesus
the strait and narrow road,
Holding on to this world,
I just could not let go,
That's such a heavy road.
Chorus
Come and break the yoke Lord,
Come and set this child free,
Come tear down the walls of pride
and all I hide beneath,
Freedom always came to those
who receive the words you spoke,
I receive your word, break the yoke,
I receive your word, break the yoke.
Praying with my brother
is such a precious
