song that didn't make the Jesus Culture album but was recorded with them

MY CUP YOU DRANK

Humble God crucified in weakness
How can I speak this
A love bruised for me
Wine spilled out
Why this wasted life
How can a God be broken
Torn up on a tree

My cup you drank
My cup you drank
You did not give me up to death

You bent down
You walked among the broken
Forgiveness was spoke
the price was your crown

He was pierced
Our punishment upon him
A lamb lead to the slaughter
By his wound we are healed

COMPLICATED LAYERS

COMPLICATED LAYERS

cobblestone streets
a light weight sound
periodic waves of warmth
then the sun goes down
when the sun makes her appearance
scarves and sweaters while the cold air blows by
trapped inside the smell of cinnamon
and sudden layers and complications seem ok
seem ok

THE LAST

THE LAST

Oh how I ran with chained feet
Morose were days whose eyes fell late with joy
And bent like the willows by early spring
My spine was weak and narrow from everything

I dug with haste to make my stubborn chains
Barricade my heart from you again
You cast your spell like seed on an open field
In hope a harvest late in life would yield.

Then I let go with eyes closed
and fall I did into a complex web
she held me here and I learned to trust
and told me I could walk on the other side

I trampled the strong the shoots of spring in vain
cause hurdle death they did and grow again
they grew like vines to towers where I climbed my best
to reach the first the now to reach the last
