Come Back Soon - Andrew Peterson[00:00:02]
I remember the day of the Tennessee flood[00:00:23]
The sound of the scream and the sight of the blood[00:00:30]
My son he saw as the animal died[00:00:36]
In the jaws of the dog as the river ran by[00:00:39]
I said "Come back soon "[00:00:42]
It's there on the page of the book that I read[00:00:56]
The boy grew up and the yearling was dead[00:01:01]
He stood at the gate with the angel on guard[00:01:09]
And wept for the death of his little boy heart[00:01:12]
I say "Come back soon "[00:01:15]
"Come back soon "[00:01:21]
We wake in the night in the womb of the world[00:01:32]
We beat our fists on the door[00:01:37]
We cannot breathe in this sea that swirls[00:01:42]
So we groan in this great darkness[00:01:47]
For deliverance[00:01:52]
Deliverance O Lord[00:01:59]
I sit on the bench at the bend in the trail[00:02:10]
And I can feel in the fall the final exhale[00:02:15]
The trees of the field all wring their hands[00:02:23]
And the leaves go by like a funeral band[00:02:26]
I say "Come back soon "[00:02:28]
"Come back soon "[00:02:35]
We wake in the night in the womb of the world[00:02:55]
We beat our fists on the door[00:03:01]
We cannot breathe in this sea that swirls[00:03:06]
So we groan in this great darkness[00:03:11]
Are we alone in this great darkness [00:03:15]
If nature's red in tooth and in claw[00:03:39]
Then it seems to me that she's an outlaw[00:03:44]
'Cause every death is a question mark[00:03:50]
At the end of the book of a beating heart[00:03:53]
And the answer is scrawled in the silent dark[00:03:56]
On the dome of the sky in a billion stars[00:03:59]
But we cannot read these angel tongues[00:04:02]
And we cannot stare at the burning sun[00:04:06]
And we cannot sing with these broken lungs[00:04:09]
So we kick in the womb and we beg to be born[00:04:12]
Deliverance [00:04:15]
Deliverance O Lord [00:04:19]
Deliverance [00:04:23]
Deliverance O Lord[00:04:27]
