"Stirred" is an R&B/Rock fusion original song with poignant lyrics, great guitar soloing by Terry Korsmo, and blend of techno with live guitar.
Lyrics: V1 When the hue of my view has grown dull and fades Pigment lost in the dross so my spirit jades Color thin in the tin of paint long ignored Blunted shade, tincture gray on the pallet board Stir me up, mix my cup from the bottom of A cold heart, a jumpsta rt for my lack of love See the blend of my sin mixed with godly zeal Want the pallor of my valor to restore and heal Useless dye when the sty is far underneath Sludge has risen from the prison of my apathy Holy God, staff and rod, guide my new pursuit Stir the taint of my complaint until my cast's renewed
V2 Ten Commands, duty lands on my shoulders square Sermon Mount, there's no doubt that I hardly dare To describe present life as disciple, true Loving God and neighbor ought to be my main pursuit Mix the gloss, color lost make its luster shine There's no chance if my stance is that I'm doing fine Grace is great in my pain as my pallor drains Mix the varnish, heal the tarnish that grows in my brain Grant me hope, more than cope, bright and shining hue Self without Light within is a vain pursuit I will trust, as I must in, Christ's saving heart Grace is wide for daily life and not just at the start
Break
Chorus Stir up my soul, paint that has long set In the container of my own regret Renew the shine, mix and refine Stir up the color, like no other, uniquely mine
V3 It is Him, only Him that has blended me God's design, before time, I was brought to be Born in sin, couldn't win, until grace was shown Hunger for when I will know as I'm fully known Comes to mind, past the time I could hear so clear The Still Voice, made the choice, I would follow Him Years fly past, sin relapse, color separates Oil climbs, pigment dives, molecules abate But, the true faithful who have the Seed within Are assured to endure faithful to the end Can't describe the soul-vibe that has captured me As I'm shaken, new-awakened in Christ's purity
