lirik lagu timothy brindle - declaration of dependence (2004)

[verse 1]
lord, the closer i get to your light
the more clearly i see my filth, hear me and clear my guilt
i prayed and i asked you to show me my sin
you answered my prayer, now i know what’s within
the stuff that infests is disgusting, a mess
like the l~st of the flesh and covetousness
hatred inside, anger resides
so i pray and i sigh, start taking my pride
and self~righteousness, doctrinal arrogance
my temper steams like a pot of asparagus
folly, jealousy, i see selfishness
your law is tellin’ me i need help with this
i’m aware of my tongue, how it’s a forest fire
i haven’t adored messiah or cherished the son
plus, there remains this wicked impatience
lord, i’m so sick of committing the same sins
but if i confessed every sin in this song
then this joint would be like 70 minutes long
my king, you’re holy
now help me lay aside the sin which clings so closely
and wages war, to make me sure
i’m still your son, i have to turn to galatians 4
but you’re gracious, lord, you’ve been so faithful to restore me
when i fall, i should thank you more
and now that you’ve shown me what my folly is
give me the grace to grow in godliness
i said now that you’ve shown me what my folly is
grant me the grace to grow in godliness
[chorus 1]
this is my declaration of dependence
grant me restoration and repentance
may i be blessed with patience and contentment
help me neglect temptation when i’m tempted
this is my declaration of dependence
grant me restoration and repentance
may i be blessed with patience and contentment
help me neglect temptation when i’m tempted

[verse 2]
they say they’re encouraged by timothy brindle
if they only knew he’s so wickedly sinful
so pr~ne to go astray and fall into sin
at any moment of the day, so i’m callin’ on him
like, “please sustain my feeble frame
keep me from temptation, i pray in jesus’ name”
how am i to write an album on k!llin’ sin
if i’m not k!llin’ sin? you’re revealin’ tim’s
feelings and not concealin’ them
my sin is too heavy for my building and my ceiling’s really thin
only the cross offers surety
without your grace and strength, i can’t even walk in purity
but i tried to walk in my own strength
without your assistance, now i shout for forgiveness
jesus heard me plead for mercy
“grant me a desire to pray and read your word, see”
’cause after [?], i took it for granted
look how easily your book is abandoned
i contemplate
how the only thing that separates me from hitler is your sovereign grace
salvation was your personal doin’
but now that i’m saved, sin perverts our communion
you revealed tim’s filthy, rotten soul
but to k!ll sin, i’m still responsible
so keep me relentless in this race
’cause to k!ll sin, i’m completely dependant on your grace
keep me relentless in this race
’cause to k!ll sin, i’m completely dependant on your grace, lord
[chorus 1]
this is my declaration of dependence
grant me restoration and repentance
may i be blessed with patience and contentment
help me neglect temptation when i’m tempted
this is my declaration of dependence
grant me restoration and repentance
may i be blessed with patience and contentment
help me neglect temptation when i’m tempted

[verse 3]
(come break me father)
i’m not hopin’ to write tight lyrics
i’m hopin’ for a broken and contrite spirit (he won’t despise you)
and tears and contrition
may i mourn over my sin from the holy spirit’s conviction
and truly turn away, repent of my naughty sins
cleanse my conscience, deaden my haughtiness
please, may i be content in your providence
knowing what happens is meant for my godliness
i’m cryin’ patiently, shine your face on me
the light of your countenance, my might is so powerless
be my fortress, refuge, and tower
’cause when you’re near, temptation loses power
like moses before me, show me your glory
so we’ll know you’re holy and only adore thee
and not lurk astray or turn away
but walk up [?] like a straight vertebrae
but it comforts me that this awesome salvation
rests upon christ, my rock and solid foundation
so i bring nothing to the table, but my sin
not trusting that i’m able, i trust in him
and his death for me and his obedience
in salvation’s recipe, i have no ingredients
wretched man i am, but blessed is the lamb
because of his death, i’m accepted as your fam
wretched man i am, but blessed is the lamb
because he’s resurrected, i’m accepted as your fam
and now that you’ve shown us what our folly is
i know you’ll help us grow in godliness, lord
[chorus 2]
this is our declaration of dependence
grant us restoration and repentance
may we be blessed with patience and contentment
then won’t neglect temptation when we’re tempted
this is our declaration of dependence
grant us restoration and repentance
may we be blessed with patience and contentment
then won’t neglect temptation when we’re tempted
