The Decree - Lacey Sturm

She collects grey drops of rain inside the bottom of her glass

Till the world has gone from upside down to right side up again

She believes till she can see

Five long months looking at trees that seem like they are dead

Blackened twisted broken still full bloom inside her head

She believes till she can see

Turning the pages

Unlocking cages

Quiet days we can hear this sound

Heaven’s throne in the earth come down

The decree’s out now

Never been so loud

Making way for the undoing

Of the death in everything

The decree’s out now

Never been so loud

The times not near it’s here!

A holy fear is here!

When the world is laughing at itself all she can do is cry

But when the world is scared and crying out she laughs fearless inside

She believes

Till she can see

Floating freely breathing easy over stratospheres

Eternity throws glory stars redeeming all the years

Do you believe and will you dream

Turning the pages

Open these cages

Quiet days we can hear this sound

Heaven’s throne in the earth come down

The decree’s out now

Never been so loud

Making way for the undoing

Of the death in everything

The decree’s out now

Never been so loud

The times not near it’s here!

A holy fear is here!

It’s here!

(Majesty)

Quiet days we can hear this sound

Heaven’s throne in the earth come down

The decree’s out now

Never been so loud

Making way for the undoing

Of the death in everything

The decree’s out now

Never been so loud

The times not near it’s here!

A holy fear is here!

The times not near it’s here!

A holy fear is here!
