V1.
a cloud of dust comes from the north
and chariots from Rome
come to drive our freedom out
and desecrate my home

can they hear the call for peace
above the trumpets sound
is there any hope for us
upon this hallowed ground

V2.
a fiery sky lies in the east
and swallows up the lamb
is there no escape for me
am I who you say I am

so much pain and so much sorrow
all pulling at my flesh
let this day pass and bring tomorrow
and let my body rest

V3.
I am here upon the cross
Nails driven through my hands
My flesh is torn by whips and thorns
And will forgiveness stand

And who among you lives my name
Will turn your blindest eye
To those that suffer just like me
With my tears do they cry

a hundred voices call my name
what have I begun
a thousand voices call my name
what have I begun
a million voices call my name
what have I become
6 billion voices call my name
what have I become
