land of the grey

There's a young Mother with three children
Got a stable income and a faithful husband, too.
She's searching for her life's meaning,
So she says to her shrink, "I'm leaving home soon!"
Just decided that she couldn't take it anymore,
Didn't look back, she just snuck out the back door-

What is wrong with this picture?
We applaud this behavior
Admire how she breaks away-
Oh, it's so clearly cloudy, in the land of the grey.

There's a young Senator,
Gifted politician,
So consumed by pursuing his career.
Use to care about what the people wanted,
But now he's learned how to say what they wanna hear.
A million lies and scandals bear his name,
But you'll never see him hide his face in shame-

What is wrong with this picture?
We applaud this behavior
He's a hero if he makes mistakes-
Oh, it's so clearly cloudy in the land of the grey.

What's wrong? What's right? Absolute confusion.
What's black? What's white? Everything looks hazy.
Such scenarios bring me to only one conclusion-
Maybe we've all gone crazy.

Three little kids are praying mama comes home,
And a little town feels violated and betrayed.
Meanwhile, two very unhappy people
Try to excuse the messes that they've made.
But you'll never hear it stated quite that way,
Cos we can't handle it here in the land of the grey.


came across another ginny favorite :D im not exactly into the cut of the conscience but i guess it takes alot of different factors music, messages, His word and people to whack you out of horrible sinking sand and everyone needs reminders now and again cos we're human and humans forget. went a little into 1john during sunday school and about how after we enter His REALM [rie's big word heh] none of us should, knowing its clearly wrong continue in the way of sin. we're all gonna sin anyway cos we're horrible wretched creatures but that doesnt mean we dont try our best to walk in Him and day by day grow more into His likeness. its really sad to watch people sit there and tell themselves "i dont deserve His forgiveness no i dont cos im too horrible to be forgiven" and they psycho themselves and push away this perfect offer of salvation.

1john3:20 says "for if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our hearts and knows all things."

and He does. sometimes i really wonder how on earth i can doubt this great God that has given up His everything for me. i wonder why im scared of circumstances in life and why i try to reason with Him and tell Him "i really want this, i REALLY want this" wheni clearly know He knows better than i do, and all He asks is for us to rest in His love and ABIDE.

God is in control, we believe that His children will not be forsaken [luke12:32 "do not fear little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom."]

it must've been wild angels Him. baby, what else could it be? (:
