Testo Four Days Gone - Paul Eric Norwood
Testo della canzone Four Days Gone (Paul Eric Norwood), tratta dall'album The Greatest Story
I sent for you when hope was fading
His breath was weak, his skin so pale
We watched and prayed our hearts were breaking
But still no footsteps on the trail
We wrapped him up, laid him in darkness
Sealed the tomb and wiped our tears
Four days gone and now you're coming
Too late for mercy, too late for here
If You had come, if You had spoken
If You had held his hand in Yours
Would death have dared to cross the doorway?
Why would we be standing on this floor?
But You call his name like thunder
Like the dawn cuts through the night
Stone rolls back, the grave surrenders
Breath returns and he stands upright
Oh my God, I see Your power
Yet still I stand here torn in two
Did he wake because You loved him?
Or was this just to prove the truth?
He steps out, his eyes wide open
Shroud still clinging to his frame
You say, unbind him, let him walk free
Yet nothing here still feels the same
I run to him I touch his fingers
Warm with life but changed somehow
He was gone and yet he lingers
And I can't help but wonder how
If You had come, if You had hurried
If You'd have healed instead of stayed
Would we have skipped the weeping sorrow
Would we have learned to trust this way
But you call his name like thunder
Like the dawn cuts through the night
Stone rolls back, the grave surrenders
Breath returns and he stands upright
Oh my God, I see your power
Yet still I stand here torn in two
Did he wake because you loved him?
Or was this just to prove the truth?
You call his name like thunder
Like the dawn breaks through the sky
Stone rolls back, the grave surrenders
Tears fall down and hope revives
Oh my God, I see Your mercy
Though I still don't understand
But if Your love can wake the sleeping
Then I will place it in Your hands
Four days gone, yet here he's standing
Four days gone and so am I
