| [00:17.43] |
You who live in heaven |
| [00:20.31] |
Hear the prayers of those of us who live on earth |
| [00:26.08] |
|
| [00:26.75] |
Who are afraid of being left by those we love |
| [00:32.24] |
And who get hardened by the hurt |
| [00:37.79] |
Do you remember when You lived down |
| [00:41.62] |
here where we all scrape |
| [00:44.60] |
To find the faith to ask for daily bread |
| [00:50.35] |
|
| [00:51.12] |
Did You forget about us |
| [00:54.15] |
|
| [00:54.72] |
Do You had flown away |
| [00:58.11] |
Well I memorized every word You said |
| [01:03.15] |
|
| [01:05.26] |
Still I'm so scared I'm holding my breath |
| [01:10.57] |
|
| [01:11.43] |
While You're up there just playing hard to get |
| [01:17.09] |
|
| [01:28.89] |
You who live in radiance |
| [01:32.02] |
Hear the prayers of those of us who live in skin |
| [01:38.00] |
We have a love that's not as patient as Yours was |
| [01:43.89] |
Still we do love now and then |
| [01:47.93] |
|
| [01:48.90] |
Did You ever know loneliness |
| [01:52.58] |
Did You ever know need |
| [01:55.85] |
Do You remember |
| [01:56.88] |
just how long a night we get? |
| [02:01.52] |
|
| [02:02.60] |
When You were barely holding on |
| [02:06.10] |
And Your friends fall asleep |
| [02:09.22] |
And don't see the blood |
| [02:11.05] |
that's running in Your sweat |
| [02:15.20] |
|
| [02:16.11] |
Will those who mourn be left uncomforted |
| [02:21.53] |
|
| [02:22.52] |
While You're up there |
| [02:24.08] |
just playing hard to get? |
| [02:28.23] |
|
| [02:30.77] |
And I know you bore our sorrows |
| [02:35.51] |
|
| [02:37.80] |
And I know you feel our pain |
| [02:41.21] |
|
| [02:44.31] |
And I know it would not hurt any less |
| [02:48.92] |
|
| [02:50.35] |
Even if it could be explained |
| [02:54.56] |
|
| [02:57.15] |
And I know that I am only lashing out |
| [03:02.45] |
|
| [03:03.82] |
At the One who loves we most |
| [03:08.11] |
|
| [03:10.95] |
And after I figured this somehow |
| [03:15.85] |
|
| [03:17.26] |
Would I really need to know |
| [03:22.16] |
Is if You who live in eternity |
| [03:25.83] |
Hear the prayers of |
| [03:27.62] |
those of us who live in time |
| [03:31.52] |
|
| [03:32.62] |
We can't see what's ahead |
| [03:35.42] |
And we can not get free of what we've left behind |
| [03:41.31] |
|
| [03:42.64] |
I'm reeling from these voices |
| [03:45.58] |
that keep screaming in my ears |
| [03:48.61] |
|
| [03:49.34] |
All the words of shame |
| [03:50.97] |
and doubt blame and regret |
| [03:54.71] |
|
| [03:55.74] |
I can't see how You're leading me |
| [03:59.41] |
unless You've led me here |
| [04:02.41] |
Do where I'm lost enough to let myself be led |
| [04:08.65] |
|
| [04:09.71] |
And so You've been here all along I guess |
| [04:14.58] |
|
| [04:15.89] |
It's just Your ways and |
| [04:17.34] |
You are just plain hard to get |
