Lyrics
Dear father
How long will it be
Before you come to put an end to all of the suffering
And avenge your people
Lord I pray that you stay
Be my gate keep me safe
I'm your slave I will not stray
Lead the way I'll obey
But this place I just can't take
All the hate and disgrace
I can't wait show your face
End the race Lord I'm prey
Lord I pray that you stay
Be my gate keep me safe
I'm your slave I will not stray
Lead the way I'll obey
But this place I just can't take
All the hate and disgrace
I can't wait show your face
End the race Lord I'm prey
Look around at what's taking place this the last phase
Killing every day, sickness, protests, the light's fading away
I know it'll be ok if I eat your word and meditate but
How long will it be before you part the sky and bring your gates
You said there's a bad storm ahead but I'll face the fate
I'll take the loss and deny the fame ignore the bait
I'll pay the cost to exalt your name create debate
I'll carry the cross and endure the pain no matter what it takes
Use me to reach to the ones who don't know
Provide me the words to say let them flow
Release your power permit it to show
Matthew 7:7 it is so
Ask and it will be given to you
Seek and you will find
Knock and it will be opened to you
Lord I pray that you stay
Be my gate keep me safe
I'm your slave I will not stray
Lead the way I'll obey
But this place I just can't take
All the hate and disgrace
I can't wait show your face
End the race Lord I'm prey
Lord I pray that you stay
Be my gate keep me safe
I'm your slave I will not stray
Lead the way I'll obey
But this place I just can't take
All the hate and disgrace
I can't wait show your face
End the race Lord I'm prey
Will you be one of the ones huh
Will he say well done
Will you be one of the ones huh
Will he say well done
If not, in the flames you will go
No turning back that's all he wrote
Get in the word and begin to soak
Forget the sin let him show you the ropes
No joke it's for the best
If you pass the test that's eternal rest
Your life is the bet get ready to go set
For a brand new you you've never met
Lord I pray that you stay
Be my gate keep me safe
I'm your slave I will not stray
Lead the way I'll obey
But this place I just can't take
All the hate and disgrace
I can't wait show your face
End the race Lord I'm prey
Lord I pray that you stay
Be my gate keep me safe
I'm your slave I will not stray
Lead the way I'll obey
But this place I just can't take
All the hate and disgrace
I can't wait show your face
End the race Lord I'm prey
