alone - My Epic

Am i a barren temple

Left for newer ways

Of speaking mysteries my veils cannot contain

Should i prepare

To winter spend (?) again

Of silent centuries' speech for only certain men

What if i wait to find You’ve gone

What if Your presence was withdrawn

And i was mistaken all alone

To think i could become Your home

It’d be no surprise to finally know

I am truly alone

Come then (?) but likely sooner i’ll be alone

You moved your temple

Inside our bones and its (?)

So hard to trust that You won’t move again

For all eternity

You stood with Your Father in perfect unity

And when You walked the earth

You only went where He led

You only spoke what He said

So for everything You left

And all of the glory You forfeit

No matter how low You were sent

You still couldn’t know what it’s like to be alone

Disgraced but you were never alone

Betrayed but you were never alone

Tortured but still never alone

And nothing is worse than being alone

I have been thinking hard about us trading place

Maybe i can wear Your beauty if You put on my shame

Jesus i’ve been trying so hard to look like You

That i almost missed the worst of what i put You through

You didn’t die for sins

You died covered in them

A prideful lying thief gasping out my final breath

For that one moment

You looked just like me

Your Father left you

And You died completely alone

For me You were alone

You couldn’t marry so He left You all alone

No better promise than sympathy

(You conquered death all alone)

Cause You know the deepest of all our needs

Never again, never alone
