Waging War

(álbum: Clean - 2004)

It haunts me so
This gloomy wait
That comes and goes without a trace
A thousand times I flesh embrace
A thousand more, but here for grace

To see the Lord, the Promise Land
Where in those sins, pearly gates look bland
What once was a pearl, now sand
That blows away, that blows away in light of him

When battle lines become unclear
And the waging war is all I hear
Lord, sustain me with your voice
And the choice to walk in truth

To see the Lord, the Promise Land
Where in those sins, pearly gates look bland
And what was once a pearl, now sand
That blows away, that blows away in light of him

That I might see this day
This waging war
Might go away and be no more
That I may see his face, and hear him say
Son welcome home, the war is over

To see the Lord, the Promise Land
Where in all sins, pearly gates look bland
And what was once a pearl, now sand that blows away
That blows away, that blows away in light of him
Go away, oh go away, go away in light of him
Oh, blow away a waging war of sin
