times of separation lyrics

Once again to strive, to beat it out
over and over again.
so worn, worked over
to watch him die and smile
with the intention to kill.
at his dismay,
his pain,
my cleanliness a gift of freedom.
my deliverance.
my walk purified.
my peace given by God.
What else is there

when every thing is silent
and nothing else is around?
after slipping away,
no one can know.
alone.
looking deep inside.
hearing the echo of my soul,

In these times of silence,
i find there is a void that rises up,
these times of separation,
a peace that brings my tears,
a comfort that no one else can offer.

So why do people run away?
and base their self on opinions
why do they look elsewhere
love is so constant?
when the truth is so evident that this God of
my Jesus stands to helpdestruction and storms.
