I Gretchen

Is this life
Is this truth
Is this reality
Or is this my youth

Thoughts of love
And purity true
I found it all
Just like you

Lost in Nebraska
Wonderland of the soul
Lost in Nebraska
Never get old
Days eternal
Forever true
Lost in Nebraska
Just like you

Is this contention
Denominational war
Nebraskas righteous?
Or Babylon's whores?

Unity
My heart it needs
Sacred heart
I know it bleeds

Lost in Nebraska
Wonderland of the soul
Lost in Nebraska
Never get old
Days eternal
Forever true
Lost in Nebraska
Just like you

Heaven's heart
Heaven's dove
Born again
From above

Unity
Can I find?
Nebraskas woes
Are on my mind

Lost in Nebraska
Wonderland of the soul
Lost in Nebraska
Never get old
Days eternal
Forever true
Lost in Nebraska
Me and you




Questioning

Questioning the wisdom
Questioning divine
Questioning the god
I might of left behind

Questioning the reasons
Questioning it all
Questioning the journey
Questioning the goal

Questioning my heart
Questioning the truth
Questioning everything
Is there any proof

Questioning the faithful
Asking the forlorn
Is there reason to this madness?
Is there any point at all?

I sleep in quiet slumber
Questions unanswered still
Yet they say just keep the faith
So till then my heart be still




Be still

be still and know i'm god
for my heart is always with you
I have carved you on my palm
you will not be left behind

be still and know i'm god
for my thoughts are always on you
when you sin and when you save
when you hate and when your kind

be still and know i'm god
when they all misunderstand you
when your outcast from the heartland
when they say to you your blind

be still and know i'm god
as i watch your every moment
when your on the highest peaks
or in the shadows of your mind

be still and know i'm god
for i know your situation
and your world and your people
and your family and your kind

be still and know i'm god
for your life it has a reason
and your struggles and your trials
are what makes you one of mine




Living in the real world

living in the real world
a spiritual haze
blinds me to eternity
each and every day

worried bout my mortgage
worried bout my bills
a spiritual haze
reminds me of my ills

rather watch some porno
rather watch the news
rather play some rock and roll
rather read reviews

living in the real world
no care for life beyond
in nebraska in the real world
for my cut i sing this song

living in the real world
a spiritual haze
blinds me to eternity
each and every day

worried bout my mortgage
worried bout my bills
a spiritual haze
reminds me of my ills






I can see forever

i can see forever
i can see eternity
i know all the answers
i know all the truth

faith which makes me do believe
hope which fills my desperate need
love which helps me to conceive
of how i feel for you

i understand the mysteries
i understand my destinies
i understand the revelries
of life eternals youth

faith which gets me out of bed
hope in life beyond my death
love for you my dearest friend
a life forever new

i am finding who i am
i am finding where i stand
i am finding the deepest plan
i am finding you

faith in life eternally
hope in you and hope in me
love which sets my spirit free
and knowing what is true
