A Hope For Home - Redemption: A Grief Observed

Текст песни

Come, now child! All of this is temporary:
I am merely a vessel bearing this curse
And I can only run for so long
Come now Lord, your dwelling place is now with men
Send your rain, then open up the sky!
They say you’re coming soon, but Lord, it’s been so long
I’m starting to lose sight
The solace of licking my wounds has led me to compromise my faith
In all you stood to create
There’s no sun or moon, for You will burn so bright
We will become shadows in the warmth of your light
I’m tired of being so thin, so in need of constant reassurance to fill the
holes in my chest, and I’m cracking, I’m finally breaking. Oh, let me crumble
'till I’m nothing more than dust, and remake me to withstand myself and this
separation. They say all we have is ourselves, but this is so obviously not
enough. So many times I’ve felt like giving up and I’m holding on by my
fingertips and I feel like screaming, I feel so alone. And though I’ve heard
your voice before, for my feeble mind, I fear it is not enough
Catch glimpse of a falling star
Illuminating the depths of our world
And burning away the pestilence of mankind
Oh my god, send your rain!
There will be no more death or mourning, no more crying or pain
For the old order of things has passed away. Write this down:
All of this has passed away! It is done!
