Are we only half alive
Embers drifting in the night
Looking, wandering all the time
We seek a kingdom
This is not my home
This skin and bone
The daylight will reconcile the dead and the gone
Let the kingdom come
Long have we been on the road
But we don’t face these hills alone
Rising from these broken stones
We seek a kingdom
This is not my home
This skin and bone
The daylight will reconcile the dead and the gone
Let the kingdom come
I can see it on your face
Brother, you’ve been bearing the weight
Sister, you are more than they say
There are whispers of a river
Flowing in our veins
The hope of the after
A reckoning day
This is not my home
These aching bones
The fallen, the crucified arise with the dawn
Let the kingdom come
This is not my home
This skin and bone
The daylight will raise to life the dead and the gone
Let the kingdom come
Embers drifting in the night
Looking, wandering all the time
We seek a kingdom
This is not my home
This skin and bone
The daylight will reconcile the dead and the gone
Let the kingdom come
Long have we been on the road
But we don’t face these hills alone
Rising from these broken stones
We seek a kingdom
This is not my home
This skin and bone
The daylight will reconcile the dead and the gone
Let the kingdom come
I can see it on your face
Brother, you’ve been bearing the weight
Sister, you are more than they say
There are whispers of a river
Flowing in our veins
The hope of the after
A reckoning day
This is not my home
These aching bones
The fallen, the crucified arise with the dawn
Let the kingdom come
This is not my home
This skin and bone
The daylight will raise to life the dead and the gone
Let the kingdom come
Keep on holding
Keep on holding
Keep on holding
Holding out hope for me
Keep on holding
Keep on holding
Keep on holding
Holding out hope for me
I’m looking to the morning
For though I sit in darkness
He will shine a light on me
I’m looking to the morning
For though I sit in darkness
He will shine a light on me
Though I’m weak, I’m strong
Though I may have fallen
I will rise again
Though I’m weak, I’m strong
Though I may have fallen
I will rise again
And what was sown in weakness
Will be raised again in power
Will be raised up in the light
And what was sown in weakness
Will be raised again in power
Will be raised up in the light
So I’m holding
I am holding
I am holding
Holding out hope for you
Keep on holding
Keep on holding
Holding out hope for me
Keep on holding
Keep on holding
Keep on holding
Holding out hope for me
I’m looking to the morning
For though I sit in darkness
He will shine a light on me
I’m looking to the morning
For though I sit in darkness
He will shine a light on me
Though I’m weak, I’m strong
Though I may have fallen
I will rise again
Though I’m weak, I’m strong
Though I may have fallen
I will rise again
And what was sown in weakness
Will be raised again in power
Will be raised up in the light
And what was sown in weakness
Will be raised again in power
Will be raised up in the light
So I’m holding
I am holding
I am holding
Holding out hope for you
Oh, when I was young
Before the war was won
I haunted the metal, the hollow machine
Oh, the mighty guns
Over the battle lines
I heard the rumor rise
I held to the iron with smoke in my lungs
Oh, the raging tide
Oh, and I could feel the pull
Down to the sleep below
‘Cause there ain’t no rest in the fight or the silence
Oh, the crushing blow
Even so, did hope find a way in the fear
And pulled me through the very heart of the deep
And freedom’s song, sweet upon the waves
A hallelujah reaching us where we break
Before the war was won
I haunted the metal, the hollow machine
Oh, the mighty guns
Over the battle lines
I heard the rumor rise
I held to the iron with smoke in my lungs
Oh, the raging tide
Oh, and I could feel the pull
Down to the sleep below
‘Cause there ain’t no rest in the fight or the silence
Oh, the crushing blow
Even so, did hope find a way in the fear
And pulled me through the very heart of the deep
And freedom’s song, sweet upon the waves
A hallelujah reaching us where we break
I saw every shattered pane
And every shadow in the waiting
And every fear without a name
I saw every crimson tail light flame
And every step beyond the walls
And truth lay in the street forgotten
But I will not leave you lost
Can you see, I’ve loved you all along
And I, I will find you
I don’t fear the night
And I’ve stared the darkness in the face
And I know the heavy rain
And every sweeping scarlet blade
But they will never close these blazing eyes
I, I will find you
I don’t fear the night
I, I’m burning through
I won’t sleep tonight
Did you know I saw you fall
But did you hear the prayer down the hallway
Or see those headlights shining late
Drawing closer, sure as the coming day
I will find you
Oh, I don’t fear the night
I will find you
Oh, I don’t fear the night
I’m burning through
I won’t sleep tonight
I will find you
I won’t sleep tonight
And every shadow in the waiting
And every fear without a name
I saw every crimson tail light flame
And every step beyond the walls
And truth lay in the street forgotten
But I will not leave you lost
Can you see, I’ve loved you all along
And I, I will find you
I don’t fear the night
And I’ve stared the darkness in the face
And I know the heavy rain
And every sweeping scarlet blade
But they will never close these blazing eyes
I, I will find you
I don’t fear the night
I, I’m burning through
I won’t sleep tonight
Did you know I saw you fall
But did you hear the prayer down the hallway
Or see those headlights shining late
Drawing closer, sure as the coming day
I will find you
Oh, I don’t fear the night
I will find you
Oh, I don’t fear the night
I’m burning through
I won’t sleep tonight
I will find you
I won’t sleep tonight
