lyrics

This is my cry in the dark
In the blackest of nights
As fire comes from a spark
Set my soul alight
In the beginning was the word
So much has gotten in the way
After everything I’ve learned
I can’t bring myself to pray

(REFRAIN)
Still here I kneel
My humble head bowed
Broken heart in your hands
Begging you aloud
Show mercy please
Hear me out
Come down from that tree
Lift my father up
Send my sister love
bring my brother hope
make sure my mother knows
that her son will be alright
there’s no need to cry
if you are who you say
then show me today

Prove you have a plan
To make everyone fall in line
Somehow make me understand
How love can be a crime
For every truth that’s been obscured
Surely something has survived
For the meek who have endured
You’ve promised to provide

REFRAIN

Take the condition out of love
A promise divine
Has been twisted and corrupt
Salvation for a price
Show mercy please
God Hear me out
Come down from that tree

Lift my father up
Send my sister love
bring my brother hope
make sure my mother knows
that her sons will be alright
there’s no need to cry
if you are who you say
then show me today

They say all roads lead back to you
And someday all will see
How I need this to be true
Won’t you make me believe

I’m determined here to stand
Whether you’ll deliver me or not
An awful roar in my head
And a song in my heart
