| [02:20.68] | Freedom - calls my name |
| [02:22.36] | Serenity – keeps me sane |
| [02:24.08] | Happiness – it dulls the pain |
| [02:27.54] | Honor - to save my fate |
| [02:29.25] | Hoping - to run away |
| [02:30.91] | Willingness - to understand |
| [02:34.54] | Justice - for you not to judge |
| [02:36.25] | Courtesy – for all to start |
| [02:38.01] | Kindness – it's not that hard |
| [02:41.41] | Self-restraint – the self impaired |
| [02:43.23] | Inventory – my daily bread |
| [02:44.86] | Analysis - and then you're gone |
| [02:48.08] | |
| [02:49.36] | Look in the mirror |
| [02:52.82] | What do you see? |
| [02:56.17] | The Shattered Fortress |
| [02:59.63] | That once burned me |
| [03:02.56] | |
| [03:03.23] | Faithful ascent |
| [03:10.21] | Through darkest fires |
| [03:17.29] | I've found the path |
| [03:24.22] | To take me higher |
| [03:29.23] | |
| [03:44.68] | You're smart enough |
| [03:46.60] | For me to trust |
| [03:48.25] | Go live your life now |
| [03:51.44] | Just keep these steps |
| [03:53.45] | In your life |
| [03:54.97] | And you'll know how |
| [03:57.39] | |
| [03:58.35] | If you're not sure |
| [04:00.32] | Ask yourself |
| [04:01.84] | "Have I done to them |
| [04:05.25] | As I would have them |
| [04:08.86] | Do to me?" |
| [04:11.25] | |
| [04:12.58] | Look in the mirror |
| [04:16.17] | What's that you see? |
| [04:19.54] | The Shattered Fortress |
| [04:23.02] | Fly now, be free! |
| [04:25.86] | |
| [04:26.48] | Faithful ascent |
| [04:33.50] | Through darkest fires |
| [04:40.58] | I've found the path |
| [04:47.45] | To take me higher |
| [04:52.61] | |
| [04:54.43] | I once thought it better |
| [04:56.75] | To be right |
| [05:01.59] | But now I have finally seen the light |
| [05:09.75] | Sometimes you've got to be wrong |
| [05:13.20] | And learn from mistakes |
| [05:16.89] | I live with serenity now |
| [05:20.23] | Not self-righteous hate |
| [05:26.54] | |
| [07:17.98] | (Help me be a channel of Thy peace |
| [07:21.05] | That were there is hatred, I may bring love |
| [07:24.47] | That were there is wrong, I may bring the spirit of forgiveness |
| [07:28.98] | That were there is discord, I may bring harmony |
| [07:32.75] | That were there is error, I may bring truth |
| [07:36.57] | That were there is doubt, I may bring faith) |
| [07:38.70] | |
| [07:39.09] | Now that you can see all you have done |
| [07:44.90] | (That were there is despair, I may bring hope |
| [07:47.98] | That were there is shadow, I may bring light) |
| [07:49.58] | |
| [07:49.87] | It's time to take that step into the kingdom |
| [07:57.27] | (That were there is sadness, I may bring joy) |
| [07:58.94] | |
| [08:00.23] | All your sins will help to make you strong |
| [08:06.31] | (That I may seek rather to comfort, than to be comforted |
| [08:09.62] | That I may seek to understand, rather than to be understood) |
| [08:11.72] | |
| [08:12.07] | And help you break right through the prison wall |
| [08:18.18] | (That I may seek to love, rather than to be loved, |
| [08:21.41] | for it is by self-forgetting that one finds, |
| [08:24.58] | it is by forgiving that one is forgiven) |
| [08:26.01] | |
| [08:27.36] | Keep all of me |
| [08:30.66] | The desires that once burned me deep inside |
| [08:40.16] | Help me live today |
| [08:43.22] | And help to give me grace |
| [08:46.19] | To carry out your ways |
| [08:51.10] | |
| [08:51.50] | I am ready, help me be all I can be |
| [09:04.15] | I am ready, help guide me and keep me straight |
| [09:23.92] | |
| [10:54.76] | I am responsible when anyone, anywhere |
| [11:01.93] | Reaches out for help, I want my hand to be there |
| [11:08.25] | I am responsible when anyone, anywhere |
| [11:15.51] | Reaches out for help, I want my hand to be there |
| [02:20.68] | Freedom calls my name |
| [02:22.36] | Serenity keeps me sane |
| [02:24.08] | Happiness it dulls the pain |
| [02:27.54] | Honor to save my fate |
