So much power
And love
Each and every step you struggle
Will I fall?
Will I die?
Can I succeed?
Will these loose parts ever connect?

I can almost taste her love
Feel the electricity in my axe
The thicker strings, with a raw touch
An unformed human hand
Making such beautiful music
Music only faith can make
This promiseland of dreams

But can statues move?
Can they walk to a different location?
Can they show you a sign of gratitude?
What about a castle?
The castle of a king adored by creation
With statues in his honor
A castle made of bricks, steel, stained glass

One brick sits on top of another
And side by side
If one left there would be a small hole
If others followed, there would be a larger hole
A pile of rubble on the ground
And other bricks would replace them
These bricks would loose their place of honor

The mass of them makes a grand display
Each one insecure, but heroic
They will never leave their place
Could be a form of torture
Could be honor
Only remembering what they are
Just another brick in the wall

Romans 8:28 "And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purposes
