Johnny Juliano - Gold Caskets lyrics

[Verse 1] I never wanted it this way But that's the way that it is and I'm not here to complain Write my lyrics in the spirit bring the healing to the East Peace in the West more love for my neighbors I'll spread the gospel with my last breath Check one, check two, my advice for you to do Is always follow your heart make sure to speak your mind Don't bottle up the feelings that'll k** you from the inside This is real life and not a movie or a game Jesus changed me I speak it plainly Sin is tainting I'm refraining Hold up a second though I'll put in my vote I want revival We read it in the Bible But I got respect God is looking over all of us I didn't know it then I used to question His existence I felt the distance thought He was distant I'm an honest kid I value honesty I hope I bring a smile on your face Father honestly I say I always try my best thank God that I am blessed My faith is strong I'm never giving up for what is next [Hook] I have my faith I got my heart Making sure I act in love and always stand tall My heart is broken for the Son of Man I know you're here so I'm taking my stand [Verse 2] So I'll say it it's another page Sometimes I never say it but you know my ways I'm going over the edge put my faith to the test This is my prayer for the world And making sure it's nothing less I gotta take the time and learn to slow it down I'm speaking with my heart It never said a sound But I found you in the dark You were my light in all the pain You chose to give me life and I never stayed the same My life is founded in God, I'm going back to the start A song is not all that you wanted looking into my heart It's kinda hard to take an honest look at all your faults I'll admit it because I know that I was wrong I can only speak for myself And only hope you know the rest My songs are all for Jesus His love that I'll confess [Hook] I have my faith I got my heart Making sure I act in love and always stand tall My heart is broken for the Son of Man I know you're here so I'm taking my stand [Verse 3] Looking forward to the future I'm never turning back I'm sorry for mistakes it wasn't something that I planned I tend to look back but I don't need a time machine I'm living in the present God's love is what I need Reveal the truth in every lie for every eye Forever I will follow anywhere that you will lead When I am scared I hear you speak If I don't know then you'll believe You've gotten me this far amazing how you'll never leave I'm speaking my piece He's the ground beneath my feet This is your world so show His love with any deed I'm going deeper with the words I pray you know you're worth Jesus died for all of us and that's not something we've learned And with my last verse I'll keep it open for y'all Don't listen to me hear the voice when it calls [Hook] I have my faith I got my heart Making sure I act in love and always stand tall My heart is broken for the Son of Man I know you're here so I'm taking my stand
