Verse 1
Lord, we confess we’ve heard the lies of earth
Promising worth, they can’t deliver
Listened to worldly guides with blinded eyes
whose sweet advice bears fruit that’s bitter.
Verse 2
Lord, we confess we’ve trusted how we feel
to teach what’s real, and to define us.
Crouching within the walls of fear and pride
we’ve tried to hide, their lies confine us.
Chorus
Christ Jesus is himself the truth that will endure
His word is sure, my heart rejoices.
Teach our ears to hear the story that he tells
above the swell of other voices.
Verse 3
Lord, we confess we’ve heard the guilty cry
of days gone by, with errors littered.
Trusted the lie that this is who we are,
nursing our scars, with souls embittered
Verse 4
Lord we confess our hearts don’t guide us well
The lies they tell, run deep and hollow.
Our circumstances whisper in our ears.
Too quick we hear. Too quick we follow.

Indelible Grace does hymn revival so well I'm almost annoyed I don't see the trend making its way to Australia yet. This record keeps me hoping. Gino Rodrigo
