Goodbye (Proud World)
<b>I Exalt Thee</b> I exalt thee... I exalt thee... I exalt thee... Oh, Lord... <b>A Voice That Calls My Name</b> I hear this voice... and it calls out my name I feel this fear... this is insane How should I be... how should I feel It's just a dream... it can't be real Yet while I lay here awake, but still asleep Voices roam my head... my body is so weak I feel its hear beat... it's getting stronger I try to fight... can't hang on much longer Chantings of my name are getting louder Begging me to be their darkest servant Should I believe them... what will I gain The voice is louder... it's getting nearer I hear the words, they're much clearer Have you made your choice Coming from this horrid demonic voice I cannot tell... I cannot even scream Who's ever here controls inside of me My body breaks into this cold-hot sweat This seams so real... why did they choose me I do not believe in either or (All in your name) I hear this voice... and it's getting distant Maybe my soul... has religious resistance I start to realize... it's just a dream My eyes open I stare into this empty darkness I wipe the sweat... from my soakened body I lay back down... scared knowing it won't last I feel my soul's... been raped from evil spirits of the past In the back of my head I still hear these voices chanting Inside... it's not over, you have to sleep It's impossible for you to hide

I kneel before you... my face is full of tears Who am I to question... your laws of all our years But confusion is my problem... or has sin got the best of me At times I feel the urge to embrace a woman's flesh But I've been able to rebuke at your request Woe, unto me... FOR I HAVE SHAMED Or is there a demon inside I should blame The urge for flesh Has made me go awry Under God's wing I should lie Through matrimony, for this is how it comes to be Everyday I'm challenged with a woman's sweet honey Depression angrily runs through my body For the feel for love and compassion does not apply Seeking an everlasting love... all to myself I continue to lie... what is it I really seek Who's love do I really want... for Lord I love thee But in your arms I cannot run... give to me the strength to overcome this But in your arms I cannot run... give to me the strength to overcome I kneel before you... my face is full of tears Who am I to question... your laws of all our years But confusion is my problem... or has sin got the best of me

Goodbye proud world... I'm going home Thou art not my friend... and I'm not thine Long through the waery browds I roam A rivers ark on the ocean brine Long I have been tossed like a driven foam But now proud world, I'm going home Goodbye to flattery's face... to grandeuer with his wise grimace To upstart wealths everted eye... to supple office low and high To crowded halls, to courts and street To frozen hearts, and hasting feat To those who go, and those who will come Goodbye proud world, I'm going home I am going to my own hearth stone Bossomed in your green hills Alone a secret nook... in a pleasant land Whose groves the frolic fairies planned Where arches green the live long day Where goes the blackbirds roundelay And vulgar feet have never trod A spot that is sacred... to talk with God Oh, when I'm safe in my sylvian home I'll cherish the times left alone And when I'm stretched beneath the pines Where the evening star so holy shines I laugh at the lore and pride of man At the sophist schools... and their learned clan For what they are in their high conceit Where man in the bush with God will meet... I'm that man Goodbye proud world... I'm going home Thou art not my friend, and I'm not thine Long through the weary crowds I roam... long I have been tossed But no longer... for Lord I love thee
