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>
