Father of my father, I am
Standing in an airport queue
Got red eyes
That's the kind I'll be flying tonight

Here, while I still know you, though I'm
Angry, are you close to me?
Would you plant me deeply?

'Cause in the soul's dark night
I've seen many rise and take their flight
Are they close to me?
Would you be close to me?

In light of these tidings
My trust is shaken, but not broken, now

In time, I'll wonder:
Could this church be open
Come and speak it out
Come and share your doubts

Father of my father, there are
Things that I don't understand
While the cymbals crash, I'll reach out my hand
Declare the things I'm struggling to believe right now
And there is more than what I've seen, no doubt

Woah, soundless father
My faith is shaken, but not broken
When the silence fell, I broke it, I spoke and
I was not alone

So when these feet fail, I'll not fall, this
Body holds me tall, it holds me tall

These sisters on my back, they lay their hands
They lift one
Voice to pray, to this man:
The only hope I know
And I am not alone

You know, you were not alone
We never have to go alone

I am sure
That I will see the goodness of the Lord
In the land (in the land)
In the land of the living

I'm not sure
That that means quite what I am hoping for
But I'm asking you
To come and take what is given

Well I am sure
That I will see the goodness of the Lord
In the land (in the land)
In the land of the living

Well I'm not sure
That that means quite what I am hoping for
But I'm asking you
I think you can choose what is given

So choose the land of the living
Just come and take what is given
Be in the land of the living
All is here; all is given

In the land of the living (don't you wanna be)
In the land of the living (come and follow me)
In the land of the living
In the land of the living

Here I am, asking, here I am
For only God can change the heart of man
