Memorial Stones Lyrics & Chords By Mat Kearney

A young one, in just tears
Lying in my own fears
Lying, choking in a puddle
Drowning down in my own tears
Left you for the simple spread
Taking the steps it ends in
Lie down in a self-dug grave,
Cloud formed over my head as I laid myself down to rest
The enemy camped upon my chest
With blinded eyes and lies
Till cries he did profess
With rain and thundering storms
And clouds that fogged my intellect
With guilt and shame he built his house
And doubts in the form of self respect
With lightning that was frightening
Taking my eyes up off the Lord
Trying to discredit and edit
The words of truth he found in sword
He harmed me and disarmed me
And he charmed me with his army
But I stand before you right now
Cause the Lord came upon me
With the morning sun that pierced the cloud
And made the moisture dissipate
With a northern wind, the fog will clear
And the rays touched my face
Holy Spirit, warmed me, swarmed me
Touching me with a sweet taste
He picked me up, and kicked my butt
And placed me back in the right race
Lord, you brought me out of shackles
Divided seas all along
It's in you that I still stand
It's in you that I have song
Memorial stones in the middle of the Jordan
Lord you brought me along
I had a change through the desert
In you Lord that I'm strong
Raining bread from the heavens
Giving me a new song
Memorial stones in the middle of the Jordan
I'm pressing on
From the day to day, the miry clay
Through the wilderness astray
You brought me to the river Jordan
Bow my head down low and pray
And thank a faithful God
Who's brought his water to my lip
Grabbed my hand and led me to the promised land where the honey drips
And the vines filled with fruit of all kinds
For the spirit, soul, and mind
Around the sound of chimes
The water stopped and came in line
And clattered feet sound
Israel crossed the dry ground
Memorial stones were laid down
In awe of your love that's so profound
You brought the old into a new face
With a new place and a new grace
Your love, provision shown as you gave your child a new taste
The manna stocks of milk and honey
of (?) found at my feet
Then I dropped to my knees
For the God, he's so complete
About face, he sees me
From the grips, the enemy
In the midst, my blunder through the thunder
You're under me in victory
By no means is this journey finished, over, or complete
There are many Jericho's walls
That'll fall at Allah's feet
Memorial stones in the middle of the Jordan
Lord you brought me along
I had a change through the desert
In you Lord that I'm strong
Raining bread from the heavens
Giving me a new song
Memorial stones in the middle of the Jordan
I'm pressing on
