Who Will Answer? (Aleluya No. 1) - Ed Ames[00:00:00]
Written by:Shelia Davis/Luis Eduardo Gutierrez Aute/Perry Botkin Jr.[00:00:00]
Hallelujah[00:00:01]
Hallelujah[00:00:03]
Hallelujah[00:00:05]
From the canyons of the mind[00:00:11]
We wander on and stumble blindly[00:00:12]
Through the often tangled maze[00:00:14]
Of starless nights and sunless days[00:00:15]
While asking for some kind of clue[00:00:18]
Or road to lead us to the truth[00:00:20]
But who will answer[00:00:21]
Side by side two people stand[00:00:27]
Together vowing hand in hand[00:00:29]
That love's imbedded in their hearts[00:00:31]
But soon an empty feeling starts[00:00:33]
To overwhelm their hollow lives[00:00:35]
And when they seek the how's and why's[00:00:37]
Who will answer[00:00:40]
On a strange and distant hill[00:00:45]
A young man's lying very still[00:00:48]
His arms will never hold his child[00:00:51]
Because a bullet running wild[00:00:53]
Has struck him down and now we cry[00:00:55]
Dear God oh why oh why[00:00:58]
But who will answer[00:01:00]
High upon a lonely ledge[00:01:06]
A figure teeters near the edge[00:01:08]
And jeering crowds collect below[00:01:10]
To egg him on with go man go[00:01:12]
But who will ask what led him[00:01:15]
To his private day of doom[00:01:16]
And who will answer[00:01:18]
If the soul is darkened[00:01:24]
By a fear it cannot name[00:01:27]
If the mind is baffled[00:01:32]
When the rules don't fit the game[00:01:35]
Who will answer who will answer who will answer[00:01:40]
Hallelujah[00:01:48]
Hallelujah[00:01:50]
Hallelujah[00:01:52]
In the rooms of dark and shades[00:02:04]
The scent of sandalwood pervades[00:02:07]
The colored thoughts in muddled heads[00:02:09]
Relining in the rumpled beds[00:02:11]
Of unmade dreams that can't come true[00:02:13]
When we ask what we should do[00:02:16]
Who who will answer[00:02:19]
Neath the spreading mushroom tree[00:02:25]
The world revolves in apathy[00:02:27]
As overhead a row of specks[00:02:30]
Roars on drowned out by discotheques[00:02:32]
And if a secret button's pressed[00:02:34]
Because one man has been outguessed[00:02:37]
Who will answer[00:02:40]
Is our hope in walnut shells[00:02:45]
Worn 'round the neck with temple bells[00:02:47]
Or deep within some cloistered walls[00:02:49]
Where hooded figures pray in halls[00:02:51]
Or crumbled books on dusty shelves[00:02:53]
Or in our stars or in ourselves[00:02:55]
Who will answer[00:02:58]
If the soul is darkened[00:03:02]
By a fear it cannot name[00:03:06]
If the mind is baffled[00:03:11]
When the rules don't fit the game[00:03:14]
Who will answer who will answer who will answer[00:03:19]
Hallelujah[00:03:27]
Hallelujah[00:03:29]
Hallelujah[00:03:31]
