Wandering Stars

(Intro - Heavy, distorted guitar riff with a driving drum beat)

(Verse 1)

They wormed their way inside the walls we built

Preaching a grace that justifies the guilt

A poison whisper, a velvet-covered lie

They deny the Master, but they never ask why

It's a forgotten warning from a history told

Like the faithless rescued, then left out in the cold

The ones who left the boundaries, the ancient, broken chain

Chained up in darkness, waiting for the rain.

(Pre-Chorus)

They claim a vision, a false prophetic fire

Defy the truth, fuel a base desire

They scoff at what they can’t comprehend

Bringing their own destruction, right 'til the bitter end.

(Chorus)

They are the Wandering Stars, doomed to the blackest dark

Wild, churning waves, leaving a shameful mark

They’re just dead trees in autumn, no fruit, torn up by the root

A Judas kiss in the daylight, a dangerous, bitter loot

Watch out for the Reefs, the shepherds who only feed themselves

They only want the glory and what they can take off the shelves.

(Verse 2)

They follow Cain and the path of the one who betrayed

They deceive for money, a game that's always played

A host of grumblers, a parade of complaint

Living for the impulse, never acting like a saint

They brag out loud and flatter you with praise

Just to get what they want in a selfish haze

They split the ranks, they tear the spirit apart

Follow the instinct, born with a hollow heart.

(Pre-Chorus)

But we remember what the prophets foretold

About the last times, and the scoffers getting bold

So we build each other up on a sacred ground

With the Holy Spirit, where true power is found.

(Chorus)

We are not the Wandering Stars, not doomed to the blackest dark

We are not the waves, that leave a shameful mark

We’re not dead trees in autumn, we bear the living root

Pushing back against the darkness, reaching for the truth

We will avoid the Reefs, the shepherds who only feed themselves

We stand for the glory that belongs to none but Him.

(Bridge)

Show mercy to the ones whose faith is fading slow

Snatch them from the flames, but cautiously go

Hate the contamination, the sin that clings so tight

But keep yourselves safe, anchored in the light.

(Guitar Solo - Melodic, building intensity, with heavy bends and feedback)

(Outro)

To Him who can keep us from falling away!

Glory, majesty, power, authority!

Before all time... in the present... and beyond all time!

(Repeat and fade out with heavy, sustained chords)

Amen!
