Lyrics
Forever, Forever
Let your kingdom reign
On the face of a child who can?t help but smile
Though pain and hunger rules her day
When our cameras make us cry
Lord what do we say
Do we seek your justice and help the poor
Or simply change our screen? Silencing?
On the arms of a woman, beaten and bruised
Who heard your call to run
No destination, bearing only the fear
That the one she loved will come
Do we seek your justice and open our doors
Or bless her on her way? Silencing?
This world keeps giving us choices
Choices that define our belief
Do we merely agree that this world has pain
Or do we truly seek forever
In the heart of a person who has no fear
Knowing you have conquered all
Who will go anywhere and do all that you ask
Though strength be unequal to task
Could I be that person
Who has such faith to walk through Heaven?s gate
Or will I wait?
