lirik lagu come quickly (2004) – timothy brindle

[intro]
rescue us from this broken world, lord

[verse 1]
as i sit in my dark apartment, heartbroken
my carpet’s soaked as i start chokin’
from my tears and phlegm
cryin’ with my weary spirit, hope it would near the end
’cause i’m filled with grief and distress from beatin’ my flesh
and from peepin’ the world and seein’ it’s mess
and from bearin’ one another’s burdens
and prayin’ for my mother and older brother’s conversion
i wanna worship, but i can barely sing
’cause i see this hurtin’ world perishin’
i shed tears how they break your law, they hate you, god
coverin’ their pain with a fake facade
and as i drop into prayer, i’m often aware
how you show me my sin, i’m brought to despair
come get your church, we strugglin’ with sin
fumblin’ in the dirt and stumblin’ again
whoever said this christian walk is easy
tell ’em tim said to “come talk and see me”
’cause it aches as he’s breakin’ me
as i’m learnin’ what it means to wait on him patiently
so i await to give [reverent?] early
in your steadfast love, remember mercy
but his grace won’t forsake or fail me
’cause the god of all comfort is faithful daily
i’m screamin’…
[chorus 1]
come quickly lord jesus
’cause every day, this walk is more grievous
appear in the sky, wipe away every tear from our eyes
i know you hear when we cry
please come quickly lord jesus
’cause every day, this walk is more grievous
appear in the sky, wipe away every tear from our eyes
and be near when we cry

[verse 2]
yo, i know this dope christian sister
who finds her only hope exists in scripture
she’s tired of cryin’, tired of bein’ tired
tired of the [?] the messiah
raised her bros and sis at the age of five
knows it’s only by his grace they stayed alive
and few might find
one who, at 24, seen enough sufferin’ to last two lifetimes
humble as poor peasants, it’s rare
she seeks peace found in the lord’s presence and prayer
when tears are soakin’, her spirit’s broken
pierced and open, her only cheer and hope is
christ the treasure, the word is her nourishment
she longs for heaven where worship is permanent
she urgently yearns for it
’til then, she works to give hurtin’ persons encouragement
like on tasker street, where homeless cats, they weep
at her feet, beggin’ for scr*ps to eat
but she gives ’em the gospel instead of cash, ’cause he
will take the money and get him some crack and weed
she cries out for her unsaved family members
prayin’ that the lord would grant repentance
and be merciful to their hurtin’ soul
but in the midst of sorrow, she stays worshipful
some days, depressed with her pain and stress
she longs for glory where she’ll remain at rest
’til then, long nights and damp tissues
but be strong in christ, i’ll stand witchu
she cries out…
[chorus 2]
come quickly lord jesus
’cause every day, this walk is more grievous
but blessed are those who mourn
you’ll be comforted when christ comes to settle this rolling storm
please come quickly lord jesus
’cause every day, this walk is more grievous
but blessed are those who mourn
you’ll be comforted when christ comes to settle this rolling storm

[verse 3]
while americans whine about their worship music
and boast over whose church is cutest
the church overseas is being persecuted
merked, abused, the church is burned and looted
facin’ violence in china
when a young christian girl refused to deny her messiah
and spit in a bible, she was shot in the head
dropped and was dead when hit with a rifle
from the sinner’s curse, this globe’s a spinning earth
of shame of men and women hurt in pain
so all creation groans
and we await eagerly to change scenery, take us home
to the savior’s throne, and i ask the king
“why are all these tragic things happening?”
then i’m reminded of the life of christians
how strife is the price to share in christ’s afflictions
it’s the cost of discipleship
daily bearin’ our cross is precisely it
we traded fun, drugs, s*x, and beer
in exchange for some blood, sweat, and tears
christ saved us to make us share and suffer
so we’ll shout for joy at the marriage supper
he saved us to take our fingertips
from off this wretched life and cherish heaven’s benefits
then when i think of christ, i understand
’cause he suffered more than any other man
now here’s a reality i can’t describe
god became a man and cried!
read the text if you haven’t seen it yet
john 11:35 * “jesus wept”
despised and forsaken, tried by a pagan
died just to save men, to rise for salvation
and we’re screamin’
[chorus 3]
come quickly lord jesus
’cause every day, this walk is more grievous
but these sufferings can’t be compared
to glory to come, we’ll be amped when we’re there
please come quickly lord jesus
’cause every day, this walk is more grievous
he’ll take away the presence of sin
where we’ll praise his name, forever with him

[outro]
please come quickly lord jesus
’cause every day, this walk is more grievous
appear in the sky, wipe away every tear from our eyes
i know you hear when we cry
