Artist : Watson wayne Song : No other gods Wayne Watson Isaiah 29:13/Jeremiah
51:17-18/Exodus 20:3 My temple is built on wood
and of stone Each space is filled with the things
that I own Idols and gods that call me to bow I
try to be free but there's no freedom now...No
freedom now The ones I hold dear--Those most
precious to me Some days I set them afloat on an
indifferent sea And these things in first
place--They're worth nothing at all At night in
my dreams graven images call Chorus And my gods
won't let me sleep And what a man sows that he
will reap I toss and turn at night I've got
places to go, got battles to fight And my gods
won't let me sleep...tonight Ambitions once
good--Once noble and pure Now rule with a rod and
I cannot endure Those bonds I have forged with two
will hands They're not easily torn by the strength
of a man Chorus No other gods before you--No other
holy shrines Oh, I want to sleep in peace when I
lie down All other voices calling All of the
hands that pull me Call and demand allegiance to
their crown Chorus One day recently past, I spent
several hours trying to restore my reputation in a
fellow man's eye. My anxiety lasted into the
early hours of the morning. I realized that my
reputation (whatever there is of one) was ruling
me from God's chair. Things, not bad in
themselves, can be relentless masters when put in
the place of rule reserved for the Lord.
