Take Captive
The cords of death entangle us as I pray to God once more.
As a man died in the ICU and another on the Oncology floor.
I fear my faith is slipping but perfect love drives out fear.
So I take captive every thought to my Lord who loved me dear.
I'm needed to be strong I know
For my wife and daughter too.
But this roller coaster ride is tough
If I let my heart be true.
I live by faith and prayer
and friends and family
Who's thoughts and prayers sooth my soul and truly encourage me.
We're friends and lovers I tell my wife and partners for life as well.
And disciples of Jesus Christ himself and in who's kingdom dwell.
As a man died in the ICU and another on the Oncology floor.
I fear my faith is slipping but perfect love drives out fear.
So I take captive every thought to my Lord who loved me dear.
I'm needed to be strong I know
For my wife and daughter too.
But this roller coaster ride is tough
If I let my heart be true.
I live by faith and prayer
and friends and family
Who's thoughts and prayers sooth my soul and truly encourage me.
We're friends and lovers I tell my wife and partners for life as well.
And disciples of Jesus Christ himself and in who's kingdom dwell.
