Truth of God

**The Mirror of the Sky**

(Verse 1)

The heavens aren’t silent, they’re shouting His name

In the breath of the wind and the roar of the flame

The invisible power, the hand of the King

Is written in every created thing

From the depths of the sea to the stars up above

It’s manifest in us, the mark of His love

But we closed our eyes to the light of the day

And turned our affection the opposite way.

(Chorus)

Oh, we held the truth in a hollow hand

Built our houses on the shifting sand

We saw the Glory, but we wanted the throne

We traded the Maker for things of our own

Now the wrath is revealed like a storm in the sky

When we change the Truth of God for a lie.

(Verse 2)

We called ourselves masters, we called ourselves wise

But the foolishness grew in the back of our eyes

Our hearts became darkened, our fancies grew vain

We looked at the Giver and felt only disdain

We didn't say "Thank You," we didn't give praise

We wandered away in a prideful haze

Replacing the Holy, the Uncorrupt One

With shadows and dust that will fade in the sun.

(Verse 3)

We bowed to the creature, the bird, and the beast

We sat at the table but missed the whole feast

So He gave us the lusts that we hungered to find

The uncleanness born of a wandering mind

We dishonored the temple, we broke every seal

Chasing the phantom instead of the Real

Worshipping gold and the work of our hands

While the Creator of All eternally stands.

(Chorus)

Oh, we held the truth in a hollow hand

Built our houses on the shifting sand

We saw the Glory, but we wanted the throne

We traded the Maker for things of our own

Now the wrath is revealed like a storm in the sky

When we change the Truth of God for a lie.

(Bridge)

(Intense, rhythmic build)

He is blessed forever! (Amen)

He is holy forever! (Amen)

The Truth is a fire, the Truth is a rod

There is no excuse in the presence of God

The stones will cry out if we stifle the sound

His power is leaking from every ground!

(Chorus)

Oh, we held the truth in a hollow hand

Built our houses on the shifting sand

We saw the Glory, but we wanted the throne

We traded the Maker for things of our own

Now the wrath is revealed like a storm in the sky

When we change the Truth of God for a lie.

(Outro)

The invisible things are clearly seen...

From the dawn of the world, they have always been...

Blessed forever, Amen.

Blessed forever, Amen.

(Chorus)

Oh, we held the truth in a hollow hand

Built our houses on the shifting sand

We saw the Glory, but we wanted the throne

We traded the Maker for things of our own

Now the wrath is revealed like a storm in the sky

When we change the Truth of God for a lie.
