I've called it quits a thousand times But I've left your lies lying on my mind I'm through with you, won't make a deal I'm getting off this effort-wheel Oh, I'm getting off this effort-wheel It started by the garden tree You said, ?You won't die, you will surely be So wise, so good, by your own hands Just journey in my effort-lands Oh, come journey in my effort-lands? In the wilderness of unbelief I've wandered like a straying sheep looking for the water But I've seen the flame of a burning tree And a Voice that calls to the deep in me, the love of the Father
You crucified the Son of Love He called your work His Father's cup Risen from among the dead Messiah's heel crushed Serpent's head Oh, Messiah's heel crushed Serpent's head In weakness I have seen the power I found the truth in my final hour The hammer's calm when the metal's cooled And the sword is fit for Heaven's use In the Tree of Life I've found the truth I abide in the One who cannot lose, drinking of the water And I know the flame of the burning tree As the flame that burns in the deep of me, the love of the Father
