lyrics

“What wonder
That the saints do not always
Show themselves inspired.”
Yes we all watched Peter fall.
Fruitful
Doubts among believers,
Doubts that will protect us –
Search for your truth, let love be.

Let our love be.
Let your mistakes shine like the stars.
God loves the stars.

“This tyrant
of the mind triumphed
over all my wisdom.”
How vain it is to flee from love.
Hide love
And silence will speak it.
Build a wall of reason
Love paints a door and walks right through.

Let our love be.
Let your mistakes shine like the stars.
God loves the stars
And what is unseen.
Sins can please God.
My sin can’t be seen.
Your eyes are my stars.
God loves the stars
And what is unseen.
Sins can please God.
My sin can’t be seen.

“Mix my
Grief with yours” darling
Mix me a potion
So that we both will forget.
Pry me
From my God and help me
Find a ray of hope in
Love that is constant and dead.

Let our love be.
Let your mistakes shine like the stars.
God loves the stars
And what is unseen.
Sins can please God.
My sin can’t be seen.
Your eyes are my stars.
God loves the stars
And what is unseen.
Sins can please God.
My sin can’t be seen.
Your breath is my star.
God loves the stars
And what is unseen.
Sins can please God.
My sin can’t be seen.
Your love is my star.
God loves the stars
And what is unseen.
Sins can please God.
My sin can’t be seen.
My lust is my star.
My lust can’t be seen…
