Matt Morris - Eternity lyrics

rate me

<br>

Through the ages we have lived and died <br />

Kings make war and sages prophescied <br />

Somewhere between the first creation and tonight <br />

Was a million incarnations of me myself and I <br />

<br />

I was a savior in another life <br />

With a white robe flowing in the morning light <br />

I walked with angels in my darkest plight <br />

In the desert for forty days and forty nights <br />

<br />

I was a tyrant with an angry tongue <br />

Who neglected the old and enslaved the young <br />

It was quite when I brought the air into my lungs <br />

And sang the very first song every sung <br />

<br />

I'm carrying, the memory, of these things, inside of me <br />

I greet them with humility <br />

They're with me for eternity <br />

<br />

I'm telling you, with sincerity <br />

In what you do and what you be <br />

These don't follow you, like you follow me <br />

And be with you for eternity <br />

<br />

I was a woman swollen full with child <br />

I was a healer, Shaman in the wild <br />

I was the prosecutor, I was put on trial <br />

I put forth the accusation, I made a denial <br />

<br />

I drank the blood of Jesus from a wooden cup <br />

I ate a bit of heaven then I spit it up <br />

I caught my brother lying and I called his bluff <br />

I led the sheep to slaughter once his time was up <br />

<br />

Twice I brought the masses down, to their knees <br />

One time with love, the next time with greed <br />

My childhood aspirations got the best of me <br />

My ... became the worlds destiny <br />

<br />

I'm carrying, the memory, of these things, inside of me <br />

I greet them with humility <br />

They're with me for eternity <br />

<br />

I'm telling you, with sincerity <br />

In what you do and what you be <br />

These don't follow you, like they follow me <br />

And be with you for eternity <br />

<br />

I was a man with pointer on the trigger <br />

I brought the temple down and rebuilt it with one finger <br />

I was the first singer, to lullaby the lord to sleep in the manger <br />

I was the stranger on the road to Damascus, <br />

Saying turn your eyes to God and you shall receive the answers <br />

Turn your eyes to God and receive the answers <br />

Turn your eyes to God <br />

<br />

I'm carrying, the memory, of these things, inside of me <br />

I greet them with humility <br />

They're with me for eternity <br />

<br />

I'm telling you, with sincerity <br />

In what you do and what you be <br />

These don't follow you, like they follow me <br />

And be with you for eternity <br />

<br />

It's going to be with you for eternity

<br><br><br><br>
