10. Through a Glass Darkly (12:53)
Eat, drink and be merry
For tomorrow we die
It's each man's right to be happy
So take your pick of the lies
You don't need no one telling you
What's right or wrong
There are no absolutes
Just ask anyone
You don't need anyone
Look out for #1
No one cares about you
You care for no one
I guess you're safe there
In isolation
Complete independence
Personal desolation
When I was a child
I spoke as a child
I thought like a child
I reasoned like the child I was
Now I'm a man
I've done away with childish things
Why can't I understand
Anymore than I did then?
Now we see through a glass darkly
Like looking in a mirror
At a carnival side show
Now we see through a glass darkly
Someday our Father will reveal
All mysteries
For now we know in part
But then we will know all
We'll know the Lord, our God
Even as we are known
All mysteries will be
Revealed to us in time
Hold steadfast to the course
Keep your eyes on the prize
Now we see through a glass darkly
Like looking in a mirror
At a carnival side show
Now we see through a glass darkly
Someday our Father will reveal
All mysteries
I have found the Answer
The only Truth there is
You're gonna say it's too easy
But it's just waiting to give
It's not about religion
It's not about belief
Forget about conviction
For many have bought into lies
There is but one Command
The sum of all the rest
You must love the Lord, Your God
And your neighbor as yourself
Love is all there is
Love is all that matters
There is no mystery
Love is the Answer
For tomorrow we die
It's each man's right to be happy
So take your pick of the lies
You don't need no one telling you
What's right or wrong
There are no absolutes
Just ask anyone
You don't need anyone
Look out for #1
No one cares about you
You care for no one
I guess you're safe there
In isolation
Complete independence
Personal desolation
When I was a child
I spoke as a child
I thought like a child
I reasoned like the child I was
Now I'm a man
I've done away with childish things
Why can't I understand
Anymore than I did then?
Now we see through a glass darkly
Like looking in a mirror
At a carnival side show
Now we see through a glass darkly
Someday our Father will reveal
All mysteries
For now we know in part
But then we will know all
We'll know the Lord, our God
Even as we are known
All mysteries will be
Revealed to us in time
Hold steadfast to the course
Keep your eyes on the prize
Now we see through a glass darkly
Like looking in a mirror
At a carnival side show
Now we see through a glass darkly
Someday our Father will reveal
All mysteries
I have found the Answer
The only Truth there is
You're gonna say it's too easy
But it's just waiting to give
It's not about religion
It's not about belief
Forget about conviction
For many have bought into lies
There is but one Command
The sum of all the rest
You must love the Lord, Your God
And your neighbor as yourself
Love is all there is
Love is all that matters
There is no mystery
Love is the Answer
