Oh Rock! Upon You I build my foothold Don't let me wander off astray Tie a knot of a bell on my pleading throat You who reign over all, King of Old! Seasick and half dead from the flooding dangers of my vanity Help! I'm getting ****** down-dry, a slice of my deadly miry pie You're hand not too short to lend me life anew and of serenity Oh Endless! Awakened from a dire sleep I come before Your tireless feet Bathe in springs of abundant grace 'Til my hands grow tireless toiling the earth for the shade of Your face Time may move its hands of tricks and deceit Stagnant pool of smirking clocks Right before I accept defeat Stay my hand with everlasting wings Oh Steadfast! Aiming towards love with eyes so true To You who deserves where all praise due is due You look through me, creepy candy coating Embraced with arms everlasting Love of which knows no cease One desire of which heals all disease Dogs lie await to be fed by the crumbs of You, Purest. Show me great and mighty things thy mind hast not knowest

Oh Rock! Oh Endless! Oh Steadfast!
Oh Rock! Upon You I build my foothold Don't let me wander off astray Tie a knot of a bell on my pleading throat You who reign over all, King of Old! Seasick and half dead from the flooding dangers of my vanity Help! I'm getting ****** down-dry, a slice of my deadly miry pie You're hand not too short to lend me life anew and of serenity Oh Endless! Awakened from a dire sleep I come before Your tireless feet Bathe in springs of abundant grace 'Til my hands grow tireless toiling the earth for the shade of Your face Time may move its hands of tricks and deceit Stagnant pool of smirking clocks Right before I accept defeat Stay my hand with everlasting wings Oh Steadfast! Aiming towards love with eyes so true To You who deserves where all praise due is due You look through me, creepy candy coating Embraced with arms everlasting Love of which knows no cease One desire of which heals all disease Dogs lie await to be fed by the crumbs of You, Purest. Show me great and mighty things thy mind hast not knowest
Written for the spoken word part of the song 'Round 1 Sally' by the band 'To The Tune of Lilies' replacing an audio Bible playback Psalm 69 in their last gig at Sa'Less Tekanplor Bar in Davao City, Philippines.
