YAHUAH STUDIOS

Lyrics

This ain't starving for applause
This ain't a sad face for a crowd
This me bringing flesh back under
This me letting YAHUAH order me now

We The Assembly
Rumamu
O YAHUAH

I humbled my soul
Brought this flesh back low
Bread ain't what keep me
YAHUAH govern me
I humbled my soul
Closed every hungry door
If it ain't from Your word
I don't need it no more

Plate full heart loud mind run wild
YAHUAH slowed me down like a wilderness child
Took me through hunger so I could see clear
What was leading me what I feared
Bread in my hand pride in my chest
Whole time saying I was walking in rest
Nah He prove what living means
Not what I swallow what I receive
Every craving ain't righteous need
Some of it's flesh trying to master me
Some of it's fear in a nicer coat
Some of it's self trying stay afloat
So when I fast I ain't chasing pain
I'm putting my wants back in they lane
Lower the noise bring the heart to heel
Teach me what false appetites reveal
Cause a full plate still can't save
And a starved ego still won't pray

O YAHUAH

Deuteronomy chapter eight verses two through three
YAHUAH thy ALUAH led thee to humble thee and to prove thee
He humbled thee and suffered thee to hunger
Man doth not live by bread only

Now don't wear your fast like a grieving mask
Don't make your face preach what your pride wanna ask
No public ache just to look set apart
If the crowd gotta know then you missed the heart
Chosen fast loose the bands
Take off the yoke unclench your hands
Stop that finger stop vain speech
Feed who hungry let mercy reach
If your fast make you meaner something off
If it make you proud then you got lost
If it don't touch how you talk and move
Then you skipped the part that was meant to prove
I'm not counting hours to flex my will
I'm asking YAHUAH sit me still
Make me gentle where my flesh want bite
Make me hush when I wanna fight
Make me clean where the thoughts stay loud
Make me pour out not curl inward
Fast ain't just stomach it's tongue and eyes
What I touch what I scroll what I idolize

O YAHUAH

Isaiah chapter fifty eight verses six through nine
Is not this the fast that I have chosen
To loose the bands of wickedness
Take away from the midst of thee the yoke the putting forth of the finger and speaking vanity

Rumamu
O YAHUAH

Matthew chapter six verses seventeen through eighteen
Appear not unto men to fast
Thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly

Rend my heart
Not my clothes
Cut this pride
At the root
Shut these doors
Flesh run loose
Make me small
Till I hear You
Not for show
Not for praise
Not to boast
How long I stayed
Break me clean
Break me true
Humbled soul
Obey You

Rumamu
O YAHUAH

Daniel mourned no pleasant bread
Till vision came and the heavens said
Joseph gave himself more to fasting and prayer
When deceit kept pressing everywhere
So when temptation whisper take that now
I learn to answer slower head bowed down
This kind don't move by noise or show
Prayer and fasting let the inner man know
What stays when appetite don't get fed
What voice gets louder when comfort dead
Sometimes you find out the flesh too strong
Sometimes you find out your will been wrong
Sometimes you find peace under empty hands
And hear YAHUAH better than before the fast began
Not punishing self just clearing the room
Making my soul remember who rule
Rend this heart don't tear clothes for men
Bring me back ordered within

Rumamu
O YAHUAH

FACT CHECK ME
If the Book been checking your appetites lately
Barak YAHUAH
If the flesh been loud and you ready bring it under
We The Assembly
Not starving for optics
Humbled in truth

Psalms chapter sixty nine verses ten and thirteen
I wept and chastened my soul with fasting
But as for me my prayer is unto thee O YAHUAH

Rumamu
O YAHUAH

Joel chapter two verses twelve through thirteen
Turn ye even to me with all your heart and with fasting
Rend your heart and not your garments

Rumamu
O YAHUAH

I humbled my soul
Brought this flesh back low
Bread ain't what keep me
YAHUAH govern me
I humbled my soul
Closed every hungry door
If it ain't from Your word
I don't need it no more

Less of my hunger
More of Your word
Less of my flesh
More of Your order
Humbled my soul
We The Assembly
O YAHUAH
