[00:31.38]I've wept for those who suffer long
[00:36.85]But how I weep for those who've gone
[00:41.49]Into rooms of grief and questioned wrong
[00:46.04]But keep on killing
[00:52.69]It's in the soul to feel such things
[00:57.27]But weak to watch without speaking
[01:02.78]Oh what mercy sadness brings
[01:06.38]If God be willing
[01:10.92]🎵
[01:17.40]There is a train that's heading straight
[01:21.93]To heaven's gate, to heaven's gate
[01:27.57]And on the way, child and man
[01:32.16]And woman wait, watch and wait
[01:40.46]For redemption day
[01:46.17]🎵
[01:49.51]Fire rages in the streets
[01:54.14]And swallows everything it meets
[01:59.62]It's just an image often seen
[02:03.37]On television
[02:07.77]🎵
[02:10.61]Come leaders, come you men of great
[02:15.25]Let us hear you pontificate
[02:19.69]Your many virtues laid to waste
[02:24.53]And we aren't listening
[02:29.65]🎵
[02:35.89]What do you have for us today
[02:40.95]Throw us a bone but save the plate
[02:46.36]Oh why we waited 'till so late
[02:51.21]Was there no oil to excavate
[02:53.98]No riches in trade for the fate
[02:55.77]Of every person who died in hate
[02:58.69]Throw us a bone, you men of great
[03:02.61]There is a train that's heading straight
[03:07.20]To heaven's gate, to heaven's gate
[03:12.72]And on the way, child and man
[03:17.49]And woman wait, watch and wait
[03:25.76]For redemption day
[03:31.41]🎵
[03:43.12]It's buried in the countryside
[03:47.63]It's exploding in the shells of night
[03:53.15]It's everywhere a baby cries
[03:58.60]Freedom, freedom
[04:04.01]Freedom, freedom
[04:09.64]Freedom
[04:10.38]🎵
