"Show Your Face"

for everyone whos lost a daughter
for everyone whos lost their way
for flowing streams of holy water
for anyone who ever prays

i want god to show his face to everyone
i want to see to whom i pray just this once
i wont ask it everyday, but help me see you
do you only hear me when im on my knees

for those whore trying to forget it
for everyone who just cant cry
for those who lost it when they bet it
but somehow keep their hope alive

i want god to show his face to everyone
i want to see to whom i pray just this once
i wont ask it everyday, but help me see you
do you only hear me when im on my knees

i soak myself in poetry
i bow and bend like a row of wheat
on sunny days i hide my face cause i dont know what im supposed to say

to anyone whos lost a husband
to anyone whos lost a friend
to anyone whos lost the best thing that ever happened to them

i want god to show his face to everyone
i want to see to whom i pray just this once
i wont ask it everyday, but help me see you
do you only hear me when im on my knees

I love these guys, house jacks are the best a cappella band ever in the world... and they are the coolest guys on top of it too.
