than this tide that binds us
I thought I had made my peace
With rejection came release
But my heart, my heart is captive, yeah
To the one who paid my debt
Had to suffer bread and wine
Jesus said the tab is mine

What got me to this place
Longing for a friendly face
I had left this all behind
Childhood myths put out of mind
But now my soul has cavities
From my hatreds and my fears
All the phobic myths in me
Lord, here I am on a Saturday night
Lord, here I'm on a bed of fire
And I recall the fu ture reminding me
The place where God cannot find me
than this tide that finds us
Drop my guard and let you in
I can't deny your presence here
Righteous prayer and healing tears
Holy queers and godly gains
Lord, your church must be amazed
So here we are, social modeling proof
Gay and straight can all be you
than this tie that binds us
than this tie that binds us
than this tie that binds us
than this tie that binds us
than this tie that binds us
than this tie that binds us
Noth ing is stronger than
