Lyrics
FAILURE'S NOT AN OPTION
Lyrics by Peter Merz
Muisc by Chas Evans
Have we grown weary of 'Hidden Manna'
Porking out on cheap Wonder Bread
Hypnotized by Korah's ‘propaganna’
Gainsaying 'til the truth seems dead?
Have we followed this God of great wonder
Only to wander off premature
Attempting to steal some of His thunder
Walking in circles for forty years?
CHORUS I
And hey, if failure's not an option
Why do we keep missing the mark
Unheeding the wind of caution
Running towards sin as we embark?
And hey, if failure's not an option
Why do we grumble and complain
As we let our flesh go moshin'
And wonder why this desert never rains?
Have we cursed shepherds God's raised to lead us
Shunnin' water from the 'Smitten Rock'
Forging 'golden idols' that deceive us
Binging on 'Blue Light' soda pop?
Have we forgotten God's awesome glory
Bowing to these trinkets born of man
Crimson stains on each page of this story
As we ignore the 'Ten Commands'?
REPEAT CHORUS I
INSTRUMENTAL/GUITAR SOLO
BRIDGE
Lord, we're so far off course
Our stubbornness has blinded us
Until we've lost true north
How often You reminded us
CHORUS II
"Hey now, failure's not an option
(Let) these Sacred Words burn in your hearts
Proceeding forward with caution
Until these troubled waters start to part
Hey now, failure's not an option
Why do you grumble and complain
Don’t let unbelief harden
Your hearts and ask, 'why don't this desert rain?'"
