and so we pray
for redemption and grace
to fall on us
we run from this altar
of covenant
'twixt flesh and life
spirit and love
breathe your life into me
shine your face on me as your son
tell me i am yours
your spirit be near me
teach me to fear thee
and honor thy ways
but i'm tired of fighting your wars
staying atop the oceans that rage inside
i'm going under
i breathe the oceans
i feel nothing
i have forgotten the face of my father
i have lost sight of the light
breaking my darkness
i have forgotten the face of my father
i have lost sight of the light
breaking my heart into everything
where am i
where are you
remember the terror
remember the suffering
remember
remember me
it has nothing to do
with the hell i am in
it has everything to do
with the hell i am in
from the hell we are freed from
break us from these chains
make us new again
let us not forget the face of our father
let your face shine on us always
destroying our darkness
