Lord, How Long

Silent, broken bruised and cloaked in this desert night

I wait for you

My eyes wide open, I face this moment and picture you

By my side

Funny how the things of this world quickly fall away

And everything is equal to me in this final place

So how long, Lord, how long

How long, Lord, how long

Stars above me, the earth beneath me

And my sinner’s place in between.

My god my country my blood my enemy

My reason desert me now

Funny how the things of this world quickly fall away

And everything is equal to me in this final place

So how long, Lord, how long

How long, Lord, how long
