"Sanctuary" lyrics

"Sanctuary"

(Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh)
Why everywhere you go, everywhere you turn
Everyone's in pain?
(Didn't Jesus say that it would be this way?)
It's easy to see, but it's hard to explain
(Brutality, depravity, immorality ev'rywhere)
Where do you turn - where do you go
When you believe you don't belong?
(There is a secret place, I know your secret place...)
Where you'll be all right when the world be all wrong
(You can believe, that He can see -
He'll never leave you alone)

(There is no depth, there is no highest height
Can separate us from the love of God in Jesus Christ)
Not what has been, or what shall be
Can keep the Lord from you, ooh

Sanctuary - free my people, Lord
Sanctuary - free my people, Lord
Sanctuary - free my people, Lord (sanctuary)

Deep in my heart, I do believe
Someday that we shall all be free
(In a better Place, where we'll see His face)
And every hurt He will finally redeem
(There'll be no suff'ring for you and me anymore)
And all of the things that go down in the night -
Stuff that ain't right - is jus' so we'll know...
(We will know...)
That we all need God; and this world's not our home
(Can't you see that you and me 'r just visitin' in this world)

Sanctuary - free my people, Lord
Sanctuary - free my people, Lord
Sanctuary - free my people, Lord (sanctuary)

Ain't no mountain high (sanctuary)
Ain't no valley low (sanctuary)
That can stop my God (sanctuary)
Free my people, Lord
Hey (oh oh oh oh). Hey (oh oh oh oh)
Oh (oh oh oh oh). Free (oh oh oh oh) Yeah-oh yeay...

(There is no depth, there is no highest height
Can separate us from the love of God in Jesus Christ)
Not what has been, or what shall be
Can keep the Lord from you, oh...

Oh... (May He send you help from the sanctuary and grant you support from Zion)
Oh... (May He send you help from the sanctuary and grant you support from Zion)

(Oh oh oh oh) Yeay...
(Oh oh oh oh) Yeay...
(Oh oh oh oh) Sanctuary!
Sanctuary - free my people, Lord
Sanctuary - free my people, Lord
Sanctuary - free my people, Lord (sanctuary)
Ain't no mountain high (sanctuary)
Ain't no valley low (sanctuary)
That can stop my God (sanctuary)
Free my people, oh (sanctuary)

(Sanctuary, oh oh oh oh) Hey (sanctuary)
Free my people Lord (sanctuary)
Ain't no mountain high (sanctuary)
Ain't no valley low (sanctuary)
That can stop my God (sanctuary)
Free my people, Lord
