Lyrics

All In The Cards
(Verse 1)
In the early hours between dusk and dawn, Am I awake? Or am I dreaming?
I fall in to a room, Mostly filled with Cards. What do they mean? What am I reading?
All these little stories, filled with joy and strife. Each one signed, in black below.
In shock I realize, these are records of my life, signed by me, not long ago.
(Chorus)
All in the cards, the comfort that I gave. All the hearts I scarred. Friends I had betrayed.
The Gospel that I'd share. Not much written there. And for that, I'm am ashamed.
It is all in the cards.
(Verse 2)
I can' let anyone, know of this sad place, I must conceal, this at all cost.
So I try to erase, what I'm not proud of, The ink is strong, my strength exhausts.
I turn around to see, a man standing with me, I could be in for stormy weather.
With tears of shame I reach, for the arms of Jesus, with mercy's love, we cried together.
(Chorus)
It is all in the cards,comfort that I gave. All the hearts I scarred. To friends I had betrayed.
But gospel that I share. not much written there. And for that, I'm most ashamed.
It is all in the cards.

(Bridge)
One by one they hit the floor And not a word was said.
But The name of Jesus covered mine. Written there in Red.

(Chorus)
It is all in the cards, comfort that I gave. All the hearts I scarred, Friends I had betrayed.
In this words that we share. That cross that he did bare, For that we can be saved.
It is all in the cards.

In the early hours, between dusk and dawn. Am I awake, or just dreaming?.............................
