A sign of surrender
A sign symbolising peace
A change in one's life
A strength and a certainty that no one can shake
A soul intact in the midst of chaos
Standing for something one believes in
Not living by someone else's opinion
"Banner"
By Lights
Maybe it's bricks and mortar now
Whether or not they run it down
I don't want anything to shake that shape away
No one told us which way to come
Nobody mapped oblivion
So I go growing roses in the disarray
Just like most
Falling head in
'Til my ghost
Fills the bed in
So lift it up
Like a banner
Hold it up
Over me
If this war
Is never ending
I'll take this love
Down with me
Down with me
I don't need fate to give it time
It doesn't take pain to change your mind
No weapon can sever the soul from me
Not the sorceress
Not the money
All my cleverness
All my cunning
So lift it up
Like a banner
Hold it up
Over me
If this war
Is never ending
I'll take this love
Down with me
Down with me
It's around me in my surroundings
It's counts me when it starts the counting
In the chaos, there is a standard
I'm carrying it
----------------------------------------------------
God answer you on the day you crash,
The name God-of-Jacob put you out of harm’s reach,
Send reinforcements from Holy Hill,
Dispatch from Zion fresh supplies,
Exclaim over your offerings,
Celebrate your sacrifices,
Give you what your heart desires,
Accomplish your plans.
When you win, we plan to raise the roof
and lead the parade with our banners.
May all your wishes come true!
That clinches it—help’s coming,
an answer’s on the way,
everything’s going to work out.
----------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------
Holding on to the white banner of love that God gives me in the
midst of these uncertain times.
An answer is on the way.
