Take This Stone

We knew peace, but we'll know peace no more
We knew strife, and there is strife yet in store
We knew blood, that dread word, would find its way to our door
We knew peace, but we'll know peace no more

Hear me Lord, from the mouth of the grave
Hear me Lord, with this voice that you gave
Hear me Lord, note by note, tone by tone, stave by stave
Hear me Lord, from the mouth of the grave

Lay it down, let it go and be free
Your one task on this earth is to be
Any power that you seek will only leave you blind and weak
Lay it down, let it go and be free

Take this stone from my hand, it's for you
Ocean-glazed, shiny-smooth, deepest blue
All it holds is the soul of the world made anew
Take this stone from my hand, it's for you
