"You Know My Lord" lyrics

"You Know My Lord"

If you've ever loved someone you didn't know
In the dawning rising sun, tomorrow's silver glow
Then you've walked to Jerusalem
With your arms stretched far and wide
And you've kissed a wall of stone
In a tide of flesh and blood and bone

Then you know my Lord
Yes, you know my Lord

When you wanna leave a world that's so unkind
But you cannot go to sleep, you'll never close your eyes
Then you press your rosy lips
Against an empty shell
That's still warm from blood of men
Running down and through the halls of hell

Then you know my Lord
Yes, you know my Lord

In the dawn you won't break
You shine a light, my Lord, but it might wake

And you know my Lord
Yes, you know my Lord
And you know my Lord
Yes, you know my Lord
