[00:32.39] I've wept for those who suffer long
[00:37.70] But how I weep for those who've gone
[00:40.95]
[00:42.89] Into rooms of grief and questioned wrong
[00:47.06] But keep on killing
[00:48.93]
[00:53.18] It's in the soul to feel such things
[00:56.93]
[00:58.30] But weak to watch without speaking
[01:01.91]
[01:03.48] Oh what mercy sadness brings
[01:07.40] If God be willing
[01:09.92]
[01:17.54] There is a train that's heading straight
[01:23.28] To heaven's gate, to heaven's gate
[01:27.95] And on the way, child and man,
[01:33.07] And woman wait, watch and wait
[01:37.94]
[01:40.74] For redemption day
[01:43.56]
[01:50.11] Fire rages in the streets
[01:53.72]
[01:55.29] And swallows everything it meets
[01:58.84]
[02:00.46] It's just an image often seen
[02:04.22] On television
[02:06.77]
[02:10.70] Come leaders, come you men of great
[02:14.39]
[02:15.87] Let us hear you pontificate
[02:19.38]
[02:20.88] Your many virtues laid to waste
[02:25.11] And we aren't listening
[02:27.30]
[02:36.34] What do you have for us today
[02:39.41]
[02:41.58] Throw us a bone but save the plate
[02:44.95]
[02:46.76] On why we waited til so late
[02:50.01]
[02:51.82] Was there no oil to excavate
[02:54.31] No riches in trade for the fate
[02:56.93] Of every person who died in hate
[02:59.49] Throw us a bone, you men of great
[03:03.49] There is a train that's heading straight
[03:08.30] To heaven's gate, to heaven's gate
[03:13.53] And on the way, child and man,
[03:18.47] And woman wait, watch and wait
[03:23.46]
[03:25.96] For redemption day
[03:28.88]
[03:43.31] It's buried in the countryside
[03:46.98]
[03:48.49] It's exploding in the shells at night
[03:51.86]
[03:53.60] It's everywhere a baby cries
[03:57.65]
[03:59.22] Freedom
