Lyrics:
I’ve found beauty 
In the muddy water 
Answers don’t come quite as quickly as they once did 
I’ve found peace again 
With the word “God” 
But God’s not quite the same old man I met when I was ten 

I’ve been weeping lately 
Might be the most I’ve ever looked like you: 
My mind is hateful, my hands are cruel, 
From my mouth saltwater spews 
My throats an open grave 

But I’ve heard stories 
Of You, graves, resurrected men, 
A history of bringing death to end 
So won’t You please speak and give us life again? 

Though things may not be 
Quite the same as they used to be, 
I still find myself in that old story 
Loud and clear my actions speak 
And some words remain steady 
Like when my voice rings out above the crowd, 
“Kill him now, kill him now. 
Kill him now, kill him now! 
Kill him now, just kill him now!” 
My throat screams for the grave 

But I’ve heard stories, 
Of You, Graves, resurrected men, 
A history of bringing death to end 
So won’t you finally speak and spring up life again? 

Maybe it wasn’t the wrath of God? 
Maybe we’ve held on to ancient thoughts. 
Surely if God is God, He will take the risk 
And claim us all as His children! 

Maybe it wasn’t the wrath of God? 
Maybe we’ve held on to ancient thoughts. 
Surely if God is God, She will take the risk 
And claim us all as Her children!
