Jil Sent Me
Mortal

Words and Music by Jyro


Dreams
Soundlessly rise, then turn and fall
Like hope, longing for time to end it all
These broken hands
Trembling towards a Shape of promise
Broken light passing before my eyes

Now
Motionless in its every move
My faith dies with every living proof
My trembling hands
Fighting to grasp the shape of promise
Holding on with Everything I am

Against the slate-green cross Jil sent me
Above the beating of my heart
Beneath the Weight I cannot carry
Unspeakable Grace has whispered love

If
Fearlessly I should face it all
And if, shamelessly I should turn and fall
Upon these hands
Weathered and stained with Hope and promise
I will stand healed before your eyes

Against the slate-green cross Jil sent me
Above the beating of my heart
Beneath the Weight I cannot carry
Unspeakable Grace has whispered love

Hands
Weathered and stained with Hope and promise
I will stand healed before your eyes

Against the slate-green cross Jil sent me
Above the beating of my heart
Beneath the wieght I Cannot carry
Unspeakable Grace has whispered love
Unspeakable Grace has whispered love
Ineffable grace has spoken Life
