Dead No Longer

from The Investment by Chris Treborn

about

Comparable to "Letter to My Father"; this song is directed to the ears of my earthly father and the heart of my heavenly father.

lyrics

I died as a boy. A teenager heart broken
I felt alone even though I lived at home and
My eyes were filed with tears my heart was torn open
I was hopin’ for a potion like Romeo was spoken
Thought I was joke. Till you saw me write
Dear God. Why did my baby sister have to die?
Why did my parents blame you for her death?
Are you the giver and taker of breath?
Well if I had nothing left
Could you take mine instead?
Forget all I said
What if I was dead?
Whose blood was shed?
For all our transgressions

Whose heart was broken?
In this orchestrated selection
Too many questions
No answers to be answered
Still I ask you God
Then you finally answered.
I'm thankful for your answers
So what do I do now?

I accepted your son into my life
I believe in Jesus Christ
The author and finisher of life
I live for you since for me you died
I believe in trust and I trust in love
Let's again embrace your sweet love
You bring is closer Even though we sin
We thank you for what you did

Let us embrace your sweet love again
You bring us closer to you
Sorry that we hid

I had to die to self to understand my wealth
And for what it's worth you know our worth
We deserve love if we serve truth
We were dead now we're alive in you
