1st verse
Dear Diary/ hear my plea/ though my eyes cry/ through my tears I see/ the worlds trend/ we done crept up in some real sin/ we so spent now we swept up in a whirl wind/ and it seems like it wont stop til the world ends/ how much more Lord will you endure until then?/ Since Adam this pattern has plagued us/ we followed our passions and look where it led us/ You watched as Adam’s first offspring/ off’d his brother cuz he was jealous of his offering/ and as the years passed/ we just kept going/ the floods came as your tears splashed/ mixed with the steam of your fierce wrath/ from your broken heart only those on the ark with Noah passed/ cuz only Noah found favor/ even though Noah couldn’t hold it down later/ neither could Abraham/ neither could any of the prophets or priests or kings that you raised up stand/ so with all these men/ if you were grieved then/ then what keeps you from being grieved again?
Chrous
We know it’s not nothing/ it must be something that keeps you from being so grieved again/
There’d be more than one flood if it wasn’t for the Son’s blood to keep Him from being grieved again
2nd verse
Fast forward/ from the past toward the present/ past the torch light the path for us/ Heaven/ more than ever/ cuz it’s darker than it’s ever been/ we should be outside of the ark screamin’ let us in/ check how we be with all our technology with more ways to sin then any one man could possibly/ and yet we invent more/ like slaves indentured/ like sin vents through our pours/ evil as far as we can see/ now we know drama like TNT/ we found Pandora’s Box/ smashed the lock/ now look what’s coming at us even on laptops/ they push sin in the cinema/ lovin it/ even vote it in to our government/ we shed the blood of the innocent or know about it and won’t do a thing to put an end to it/ the way we see is distorted/ babies havin babies/ more babies aborted/ how can we afford to be this evil when you flooded earth once what do we think keeps you from being grieved again?
3rd verse
Lord/ I know our sin is sky high/ and I know you don’t turn a blind eye/ you see every instance/ all at an instant/ you don’t scoff at sin’s stench/ so you know we’re wonderin/ where’s all the rain and thunderin/ did we get away with our dirt/ did the darkness cover us/ were our sins hid/ won’t your eyelids uncover us/ but it’s not that you’re passive/ it’s just that your grace is active/ right where your wrath should be/ so we casually sin til we’re sentenced and sent to where they’ll be gnashing of teeth/ after Noah’s flood there’s two judgments left/ the cross and the one at the end/ that’s death/ and it’s not sleep forever/ it’s beef with God feeling the heat forever/ the rest of this life without God is hellish/ the afterlife without God/ that’s what hell is/ and we don’t want that/ before you come back and we get beat down like drum tracks/ before Messiah comes/ before your eyes are tired of our lives and the fire comes/ help us to see Your Son and to believe in Him/ cuz His blood is the rich flood that keeps you from being grieved again.
