Lyrics:
Well, I've been running for the keep, I've been wrestling in my sleep
Been wearing these skins for so long
I've been running from the gun, from my own father's son
To used to running to settle my home
And all my lies just bought more land for me to roam
And I know that I'm not right
But I'm still putting up a fight
And I know my hands can't hold all I aim to steal
And I know that there is a cure
For this sickness my heart endures
But it's hard to walk naked into the light
Well, since you called me the deceiver I admit that I believed her
And I was raised by that name, her first son
Some nights I stay up and wonder, am I a con man or a brother?
But in the morning my heart wakes up numb
And all my lies just make more cause for me to run
And I know that I'm not right
But I'm still putting up a fight
And I know my hands can't hold all I aim to steal
And I know that there is a cure
For this sickness my heart endures
But it's hard to walk naked into the light
Yeah, it's hard to walk naked into the light
[Interlude]
Well, in the night I saw your doorstep from my dreams while I slept
And angels stood where my head had lain
And I know I should be grateful, but my heart, it's just so tangled
In the words and the lies and the pain
So touch me and I won't walk the same
Oh, God, would You give me a name?
'Cause all my lies just left one person here to blame
Can we have one for each of Israel’s patriarchs?? An Abraham, an Isaac..
Oh my gosh, this song hit me so unexpectedly, brought many tears and memories too. I can relate to alot of Jacobs struggles and character flaws, and im in awe at how God still loved him so profoundly, and I know God loves me too.
I Love Love Love this song💜
Man truly youre a real artist inspired by God, not only to write songs but melodies too. Never give up, bc youre a son and artist of the Greatest Artist
FINALLY GOOD CHRISTIAN MUSIC ❤️
Well, I've been running for the keep, I've been wrestling in my sleep
Been wearing these skins for so long
I've been running from the gun, from my own father's son
To used to running to settle my home
And all my lies just bought more land for me to roa
And I know that I'm not right
But I'm still putting up a fight
And I know my hands can't hold all I aim to steal
And I know that there is a cure
For this sickness my heart endures
But it's hard to walk naked into the light
Well, since you called me the deceiver I admit that I believed her
And I was raised by that name, her first son
Some nights I stay up and wonder, am I a con man or a brother?
But in the morning my heart wakes up numb
And all my lies just make more cause for me to run
And I know that I'm not right
But I'm still putting up a fight
And I know my hands can't hold all I aim to steal
And I know that there is a cure
For this sickness my heart endures
But it's hard to walk naked into the light
Yeah, it's hard to walk naked into the light
Well, in the night I saw your doorstep from my dreams while I slept
And angels stood where my head had lain
And I know I should be grateful, but my heart, it's just so tangled
In the words and the lies and the pain
So touch me and I won't walk the same
Oh, God, would You give me a name?
'Cause all my lies just left one person here to blame
thank you! :)
Beautiful
I was an atheist whose musical tastes revolves around the Cure, Smashing Pumpkins, Deftones, Nirvana, Radiohead, etc.
Now that I'm a believer (and a worshipper to boot), I have still carried that eclectic music influence when choosing and singing P&W songs.
This falls right in my avenue.
sums up my life; struggling from God and running away from my problems :(
😭😭 On repeat. This song sums up my 20 yr tribulation. Wrestle him and win Abba, untangle him from the constant lies he has spun since his return decades ago and deceived me that continues to keep me in this glass box waiting for him to come clean with himself and to turn to You to free him once and for all from his inner torment; so Your spoken and prophesied Promises can come to pass. Let this endless true love inside of me You placed for him that I simply can’t escape no matter what I do because I stand surrendered covered in Your endless grace swiftly unlock his caged up heart so he then can finally unlock this glass box You placed my heart in waiting for him to stop running from You. He has to see that YOU placed it all in me for him; always forgiving even at the cost of my unbearable anguish and suffering. If it’s what wears down that hardened heart of his and leads him FULLY to surrender to You and Your will; then dear God give me the strength and grace to continue to stand while his lies and those unjustly covering his lies for him continue to drown me with unwarranted suffering and persecution. Let this true love from You be more than enough to cover a multitude of sins; and cover him to walk into the light once and for all. No more running. No more false starts. No more pain. No more lies. No more pride. No more selfishness. No more guilt. No more shame. No more greed. No more rejection of You in rebellion because he simply rejects me. Help him to remember; remember surrender. Nothing is coincidence with You. Your hand has been shown since the very start. It’s all a setup for Your power. There is a reason why I only had a dream of that one AFTER he returned but YEARS before it was possible for me to even know. The other three were already prophesied by US TOGETHER through prayer and conversations for OUR future by the VERY exact names BEFORE his return from trip and started running. You showed us the now, back then. And You know the rest Abba. All the other prophecies. There is a reason why EVERYTHING done together and planned in prayer with me was then repeated. You knew he would run. Remove the scales from his eyes once and for all.
*Love these biographies of biblical characters!* If you made more, that would be awesome.
*Moses part 2? Abraham, or David?*
This right here is simple, insightful, God led art. This song speaks to me Chris! Thankyou!!

What is this song about?
Laura Godwin Jacob, son of Isaac. A deceiver that gets deceived, yet God never abandoned him and he blessed him after the struggle.
Genesis 25:19 to Chapter 33 at least. You can continue reading farther and you’ll follow with Joseph
It’s so beautiful to read and then listen to this song. It makes everything even more vivid and alive. Chris Renzema allows you to stand in Jacob’s shoes and realize that we are not that different from him
