E A
Mist rising on the horizon

Listenin� with my ears and listenin� with my eyes and
C#m G#m

A B
Listenin� until our hearts start to glisten, realize
E A
Share the vision and my rhythms and we'll melt the ice
E B
Start sizzlin�, spilling from the ceiling, bread dripping drizzling
C#m G#m
Close to the broken-heart, them crushed in spirit
A B
Redeem the soul of your servant seek his, pursue it
E A
Keep the sparkle in your eyes

C#m G#m

When they come with their disease to drag us into the street,
E A
My law's still pure, you can't take that from me,

Craving for the slaves to bring redemption please
G#m

A B
No more leaders, we must flea ,We want see God in our enemy
