This song was written by my Dad in the 80's for his band, The Omega Band. This has always been my favorite song ever, probably because I heard it my entire life and it was my Daddy singing it, hehe. But seriously, I love the music 80's style music, the lyrics are awesome and true, and my Daddy sings it, which makes it 100 times better than it would be if any other person was singing it ;o)
This song can currently be heard on my myspace page. Http://www.myspace.com/shaina_christine
"Empty Words" by Greg Skodacek (The Omega Band)
Search for the answers with an open mind
Look for some movement to get behind
Another "helps" group, another start
Empty words to fill an empty heart
Empty words so sincerely spoken
Promises that soon are broken
Like grass withers on a hot dry day
Empty words will fade away
Words
To ease the emptiness in your soul
Words
Set to music like rock and roll
The best advice, the wisest proverbs
Without the Spirit they're just empty words
Humanistic leaders so worldly wise
Teachers to enlighten man's hungry eyes
Twisted answers for all those who seek
Empty words, half-truths, doublespeak
Professing to be wise, they become fools
Teach It's an archaic set of rules
The Mystery that confounds the clever
The Word of God will stand forever!
Words
To ease the emptiness in your soul
Words
Set to music like rock and roll
The best advice, the wisest proverbs
Without the Spirit they're just empty words
Classical education is the cultivation of wisdom and virtue by nourishing the soul on truth, goodness, and beauty by means of the seven liberal arts and the four sciences so that, in Christ, the student is enabled to better know, glorify, and enjoy God. - Andrew Kern
