First Sign

Every day I wake up and I hear the song. Over on the mountain is where I belong. Walking with my guide right by my side, I’m nailed to the cross but I’m alive. That’s my first sign, my first sign! My child I’m sorry that you must see misery. It will turn to joy for you as you hold on to me. My love like the morning light, Will set a pace for you just right. There is a shortcut I’m showing you, It’s keeping the commandments for they are true. That’s my first sign! This is the first sign I’ve received, I’ve been running blind and deceived. The first sign I see inside, Tells me I must kill my pride. First, I must fight the war within, Give to Him all of my sin, Become the life He’s living in me, Break these chains and become free! That’s my first sign! It’s truly worth it so run to the light. Go forward, and embrace everything right, Give and receive as my servant son. Be made whole and made at one. That’s your first sign!
