Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You were cold as the blood through your bones
And the light which led us from our chosen homes
Well, I was lost
[Verse 2]
And now I sleep
Sleep the hours that I can't weep
When all I knew was steeped in blackened holes
Well, I was lost
[Verse 3]
Keep the earth below my feet
For all my sweat, my blood runs weak
Let me learn from where I have been
Keep my eyes to serve, my hands to learn
Keep my eyes to serve, my hands to learn
[Verse 4]
And I was still
But I was under your spell
When I was told by Jesus, "All was well"
So all must be well
[Verse 5]
Just give me time
You know your desires and mine
So wrap my flesh in ivy and in twine
For I must be well
[Verse 6]
Keep the earth below my feet
For all my sweat, my blood runs weak
Let me learn from where I have been
Oh, keep my eyes to serve, my hands to learn
Keep my eyes to serve, my hands to learn
[Verse 7]
Keep the earth below my feet
For all my sweat, my blood runs weak
Let me learn from where I have been
Keep my eyes to serve, my hands to learn
Keep my eyes to serve, my hands to learn
