Look at the brokenness in us How lonely is this city, now a widow become She was a princess, but friends fell away tears her bitter children, fire in her bone. Look look look, does anyone see? Is any pain like my pain a wound as deep as deep as deep as the sea Sorrow on sorrow Look at the brokenness in you Your downfall applauded, your nakedness bare Festivals and fortunes of dust and debris Wanderer of roads trod deep with despair Look at the brokenness in me Walled in with a lion, a desolate mark A temple invaded by armies my own Rebellion the rampart, ruin the bars Witness, give me your cheek Silence, when sentenced alone Listen, mouth to the dust Bear together, that we may hope.

Wisdom Feast 03:17
Well before the springs Or the mountains climbed And the fields were soil And there was no sky When the heavens were dreams And the sea untamed And the deep foundations Yet to be laid As a master she With the circle drawn To begin all things Forges out our song: "Delight each day At the wisdom feast And see her bliss In our familiar scenes" Though the world may miss Her clarion call In our simpleness We elect Sheol from the highest place By the lowest kind Let us turn in here For a wiser mind She has built her house And hewn its beams She has mixed her wine Of her bread we eat By her hand our days Are multiplied And the years will heap And our hearts be joined
