Hearts on Fire

Put on your headphones and take it for a test drive.

Shibboleth by Dale Brown

She's not the Queen of Sheba, she's not the ace of spades
Kaffiyeh is not black coffee when you wear it on your head
Psychobabble is not some tower that you read about in Genesis
And shalom is not salami if your in the Middle East

She'll rat you out in London if you mispronounce the river Thames
A password is essential when you're outside your comfort zone
Shibboleth, shibboleth, shibboleth, shibboleth

Good English is important if your trying to fool the man
And Hasoos is not the savior if he swam the Rio Grand
Al Kitaab is an Arab's record but not like Steely Dan
Isa is not the savior if you are reading al-Quran

She can flush out an imposter, with her double edged sword
Light is more than noor, when your walking through the door
Her croissant is more than crescent, hamantashen is a villain's ears
Malachi is not Malachee, or the final word's you'll hear

Shibboleth, shibboleth, shibboleth, shibboleth, shibboleth


The Light by Dale Brown

Heah look at this, you'll like what you see
Heah look at this, come around and come with me
You see only a reflection, come follow me
The real thing is bonito, more glory to be free

There's light where I'm standing, it's bright can't you see
There's nothing where your standing, so take my hand and follow me

Heah look at this, I like what I see
Heah look at this turn around and come with me

There's light where I'm standing, it's bright can't you see
Take off those welding glasses, come and follow me

   “ “ “


There's more where this came from,there's much you can't see,
There's nothing where you're stand, so take my hand and follow me.
   “ “ “

Hearts on Fire by Dale Brown

I lift my heart toward heaven, I turn my face toward you
I see no reason to look away, I see no reason to flee
There is a season, for believing, the cross, and its power and sacrifice

I lift my hands toward heaven, I turn my eyes toward you
By faith I've found you, by faith I am free, by faith I'm living eternally
There are reasons for believing, the cross, and its power and sacrifice

I lift my voice toward heaven, I turn my praise toward you
By grace I've found you, by grace You'll keep me, by grace I'll live for eternity
Sing hallelujah, praise to the Name, Alpha and Omega, Amen

I lift my heart toward Jesus, the Son of Man, the Son of God
I see no reason to turn away, I see no reason to flee
He is the reason, for believing, the resurrected sacrifice

The Blame Game by Dale Brown

Standing by the river
The scent of flowers in the air
Hand in hand together
No cares or concern at all
Then something came between us
It all began to fall

All that talk between us
Like a whisper in the wind
They say the grass is always greener
Until you're on the other side
You can't blame your mother
When it's our own darn fault

Listen to your father
He's been down this road before
You never miss your water
Until the well runs dry
You can't blame your brother
When it's your own darn fault

They say it's better late than never
Two heads are better than one
Like birds of a feather
Two hearts are best together
And ya can't blame the weather
If ya left your coat in the car

Break

Buy yourself a mirror
And tell me what you see
It's written on the pages
It's a picture of you and me
And we can't blame the devil
When it's our own darn fault
