Lyrics
Lord, I've got no more tears to cry
Someone has hurt me
Done me wrong
I'm walking wounded, ooh
Lord, this pain is a knife of fire
Why does it have to turn out this way?
Why do the innocent seem to pay?
How many times
Must I stand in the waves
Of this crashing sea?
How many times
Must I forgive all the hurt
That's been done to me?
Let the jury go, set the sinner free
Oh-oh-oh
Seventy times seven
Lord, I really don't understand
I'm looking 'round for some stones to throw
You're telling me, I should let it go
How many times
Must I stand in the waves
Of this crashing sea?
How many times?
I hear what You're saying
Inside of me
But I don't understand the mystery, ooh
of seventy times seven
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
How many times
Have You wept from the anguish
Of all my shame?
How many times
Have I nailed You up
On Your cross of pain?
You bled from the broken heart
And I was to blame
Ooh, seventy times seven
Over and over again...
Seventy times seven
Lord You know just how hard I have tried...
Seventy times seven
You gotta see that I'm hurting inside...
Seventy times seven
Don't You know that my pride is at stake...
Seventy times seven
So tell me how much one should take...
Seventy times seven
