Walking Among the Dead

The angels cried a pool of tears
for forty days they wept
and cleansed the earth
of unrighteousness
through their heavenly lament
so why now when the earth is bleak
am I tested to believe
there is no guiding light to seek
no angels left to grieve?

Has the savior already come and gone
gathered his children and fled
or can I find him here on earth
walking among the dead?

All around me blackness reigns
the stars burned out the night
I close my eyes and pray I find
some glimmer of a light

Has the savior already come and gone
gathered his children and fled
or can I find him here on earth
walking among the dead?

I won’t succumb to Satan’s lure
for all my soul is worth
but Heaven’s Gate is closed to me
and hell is here on Earth

Has the savior already come and gone?
gathered his children and fled
or can I find him here on earth
walking among the dead?
