Hard Journey

from Here and Now by Redemption Draweth Nigh

about

He never promised an easy walk.

The road to salvation is exceedingly difficult, and anyone who says it's easy is a liar.

lyrics

Battered and bloody
Beaten and scarred
Is this the finish line
Or is this just the start?
Welts on my fingers
My hands are bleeding bad
Have my course before me
I can't think to turn back

Such a hard journey before me
I cried my tears and fed my fears
Such a hard journey before me
I've travelled it all of these years
Weeping cries of my brothers
Echo into my bad dreams
Feel the fear of the slaughtered
Nothing is what it ought to be

Unraveled in time
My eyes have been blind
The stars in the sky
Descend down the spiral
Fearful the hour
Sand is all gone
This is the contract
We agreed upon
Enter the night (enter the night)
The journey's a fight (journey's a fight)
Nothing but tears (nothing but tears)
Until the dawn
The journey is hard (journey is hard)
The battle is long (battle is long)
But the battle unfought (battle unfought)
Is unwon
Time, how it rushes by
Leaving all us behind
In it's wake
No one knows the hour
How long must we wait?
How long must we wait?
How long must we wait?
Such a hard journey before me
I cried my tears and fed my fears
Such a hard journey before me
Travelled it all of these years
Hear the cries of my brothers
Echo into my bad dreams
I hear the screams of the slaughtered
Nothing is what it ought to be

At the edge of the road
I stand at the gate of death
My time has come
To breathe my last breath
It's been a hard journey
Full of sorrow and dread
And though I will die
I will not stay dead
It's been a hard journey
