lyrics

We watched it side by side,

Cloud over the temple and fire at night,

Saw waters part before our eyes,

Cried as food fell from the skies,

Can you remember those days?

Can you remember those days?

We knew who we were and who our maker was,

Our eyes focused hard on keeping His laws,

We heard the promise of a land our own,

Trusted that He would grow the seeds he'd sown,

Can you remember those days?

Can you remember those days?

Chorus:

But you demanded your inheritance,

And left with your eyes set on better things,

Now I wish that you would come back home,

So we could sit for eternity and truly know,

Who we are again.

After all we've seen,

I find it hard to understand,

How you could just walk away,

Is there something I could have done?

Said more, said less, said anything at all?

What can I do to bring the exiled home?

All I have left is fear.

Sometimes it seems helpless but I know I've got to do, whatever I can,

So I'll keep living in a way that makes you question,

Cause I know that somewhere deep inside of you,

Is a part that hears the still small voice of truth,

I long for the day we see you walking up that road,

I promise I won't be that other son,

I'll be running out to meet you,

I'll be running out to meet you,

Croyez-le ou non, j'ai écouté cet album en intégralité, et sans interruption ! Si, si, je vous assure ! Bon, d'accord, j'avoue que j'ai pensé à deux ou trois reprises à appuyer sur pause, histoire de souffler un peu. J'ai même prié à un moment pour qu'il y ait une coupure de courant, trouvant ainsi le prétexte idéal... mais non ; d'une traite vous dis-je ! Le pire dans tout ça, c'est que je ne regrette même pas. Incorrigible le type ! Poesy Rider

Death Metal. Reminds me of Mortification: combining scripture with death metal. No song is over 4 minutes; it's worth a listen. Kevin Conder
