A gripping, prophetic declaration with a message that pierces the heart. A powerful song that is similar in style to Keith Green's 'no compromise' songwriting.

Featuring contemporary christian praise and worship incorporating elements of folk, rock, jazz and classical music. Intimate songs that capture the imagination and touch the heart. "Dire Straits has demonstrated the potential for stillness and emptiness in rock music. In "Tunnel of Love" or "Brothers in Arms" that stillness is desolate, even post-apocalyptic. "Throne of Love" has something of the same quality to it. But the stillness has been transmuted to rest and peace it is not desolate but consummatory, the result of being in God’s presence and gazing at him.. A truly unique and intimate worship experience. Straight from the heart and sure to capture yours. for more songs, Advertisement

Lyrics
I tried to talk to you but you wouldn't hear I tried to warn you but you couldn't care Am I talking to a heart of stone, am I? Oh my love, O my love I hold my hands out to you all day long But you just walk by My Spirit will not always strive with man Oh open your eyes, Oh open your eyes I know your deeds, your love for me Is neither hot nor cold Your love for me is weighed and wanting Because your love is old The final call you fail to heed You've heard it all before And though I plead for you to listen once more No man lays it to heart No man lays it to heart Woe to those who call evil good And make the truth a lie And those who substitute darkness for light Your wisdom will die Your nation will die And so you think I'm just like you That I should see no wrong And those that sin will grow and prosper And make their houses strong And though they say I do not see I hear the whole land mourn And though I wait to hear my people call No man lays it to heart No man lays it to heart The God of nations at His people's feet Pacific's Triple Star I see a sword that's drawn over this land And no man lays it to heart No man lays it to heart Copyright © 2005 Ray Watson - The Secret Place www.secretplaceministries.org
