Remnants - Darkness Divided

Open the gates

I can’t count all the times that emotion has left me blind

My clouded mind, my shots mistaken, about everything that is so blatant

I was sold for the weight of my sins

Sent to the world as a messenger

A descendant of perfect love

To separate the dark from above

We are what’s left;

the remnants of the chosen ones

Weary, my blood went cold as I searched for what would satisfy

Forgotten were the words You spoke, breathing in new life

My wicked soul turned like the restless sea

Upon your shore I live to be Your hands, Your feet

Everything I was created to be.

Your Justice sustains me,

Your life fulfills me, Oh God.

I am the remnant of the chosen one.

We are the remnants of the chosen ones

I lift my hands to the Heavens, from where Your grace descends

Open the gates and let us in

I am a wounded vessel counted among the wicked

My soul was lost in the ways of man

My heart found rest in the palm of your hand

We are what’s left
