Thy Shall Return

Lyrics by C.G. Ryche 

V.1       I walk a road of flesh and bone,
            of earthly kings and fallen thrones…
            A fortitude that’s forged in stone… of blood and pain.

V.2      I don’t believe in fairy tales,
            A hardened brow of tooth and nails…
            Faith sways the balance scales… As I proclaim His Name. yea!!!

V.3      I see a world of judging eyes,
            I hear a voice of distant sighs…
            From the web, they speak their lies… to a grand divide.

V.4      But I can see the fallen rain,
            The heaviness of their pain…
            The emptiness of the blame… inside!        

Ch.1     Thy Shall Return… the blood upon your calloused hands,
Is a love that can’t be earned.
Thy Shall Return… You sacrificed Your Life . . .
You’re the Savior of the world!

V.5      Faded paths and fallen stars,
            A tainted past with open scars…
            Hope becomes a ship a far… across the sea…

V.6      You and I, can see this through,
            Above the storm are skies of blue…
            God’s made a way for you… and me!

Ch.2     Thy Shall Return… the blood upon your calloused hands,
Is a love that can’t be earned.
Thy Shall Return… You sacrificed Your Life . . .
You’re the Savior of the world!   

Solo   

V.7      As shadows fall, I make my way
            Unto the light, beyond the grave
            As this world begins to fade… to the sands of time.

V.8      I believe Your words are true
            That’s why I put my trust in You
            You’re the Hope, the Living Truth… the Christ!        

Ch.3     Thy Shall Return… the blood upon your calloused hands,
Is a love that can’t be earned.
Thy Shall Return… You sacrificed Your Life . . .
You’re the Savior of the world!
