You were cold as the blood through your bones And the light which led us from our chosen homes Well I was lost And now I sleep Sleep the hours and that I don't weep When all I knew was steeped in blackened holes I was lost Mm mm mm mm Mm mm mm mm mm mm Keep the earth below my feet For all my sweat, my blood runs weak Let me learn from where I have been Keep my eyes to serve and hands to learn Keep my eyes to serve and hands to learn So I was still I was under your spell When I was told by Jesus all was well So all must be well Just give me time You know your desires and mine Wrap my flesh in ivory and in twine For I must be well Keep the earth below my feet For all my sweat, my blood runs weak Let me learn from where I have been Keep my eyes to serve and hands to learn Keep my eyes to serve and hands to learn ah - ah Ah - ah Ah - ah ah - ah ah - ah Keep the earth below my feet For all my sweat, my blood runs weak Let me learn from where I have been Keep my eyes to serve and hands to learn Keep my eyes to serve and hands to learn Ah - ah ah - ah Ah - ah ah - ah ah - ah ah- ah Ah - ah ah - ah ah - ah
