A Hope For Home - Redemption: A Grief Observed Lyrics
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 longI'm starting to lose sight.The solace of licking my wounds has led me to compromise my faithIn 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 theholes in my chest, and I'm cracking, I'm finally breaking. Oh, let mecrumble 'till I'm nothing more than dust, and remake me to withstand myselfand this separation. They say all we have is ourselves, but this is soobviously not enough. So many times I've felt like giving up and I'mholding on by my fingertips and I feel like screaming, I feel so alone. Andthough I've heard your voice before, for my feeble mind, I fear it is notenough.Catch glimpse of a falling starIlluminating the depths of our worldAnd 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!
