I have seen so many things
But still wonder when it begins
I have heard the people cry
When will you save their lives?
How could you fill me with your love
Then set me apart from the world
Then sit with me as we cry
For the strangers I don't even know?
Your ways go beyond my fate
But I can't see how you still take
The dying world into your hands
And let it spin again
to death
The rooster cried too many times
My heart is aching with time
Show me your reign over their minds
I cannot stand the burden of your love
Take your place on this earth
Show us what we're worth
Claim the hearts that you bought
Now what shall they live for?
Drowning in your grief
They don't even know what they do
What do I have to keep?
When everyday is new in You
I need you to work in my life
I give away my time to you
make their lives new in You
Let there be an abundance of Your fruit
I see the death in their eyes
Walking with silent cries
Smiles cover their dying lives
Please breathe life into their hearts
They don't know the extent of the lies
That raised them from the start
Now what will raise them from the dead?
Show us your triumph over death!
But still wonder when it begins
