[00:16.35]I see them gathered, see them on the shore
[00:21.85]I turned to look once more
[00:24.53]And he who knows me not
[00:26.48]Takes me to the belly of darkness
[00:32.55]The tears run swift and hard
[00:36.58]And when they fall
[00:40.72]Even, even the comfort of a stone
[00:44.86]Would be a gain
[00:49.46]There was a time when I thought
[00:53.03]I would have to give up
[00:56.82]But I’m thankful that I’m
[00:59.04]Strong as I am and I’ll
[01:01.39]Try to do the best I can
[01:05.32]Tears will run swift
[01:06.93]And tears will come that fall like rain
[01:13.27]I pray that it’s swift though
[01:15.03]Tears will fall as cold as pain
[01:21.46]I pray to the almighty
[01:23.67]Let me not to him do
[01:26.07]As he has unto me
[01:28.87]Teach my beloved children
[01:31.00]Who have been enslaved
[01:32.65]To reach for the light continually
[01:38.45]So many times I prayed
[01:41.82]So many times I’ve prayed for you
[01:49.03]Prayed for you
[01:54.29]The tears run swift and hard and cold as pain
[02:02.37]Even, even the comfort of a stone would be a gain
[02:10.63]Had I not had the strength and wisdom of a warrior
[02:14.45]I would have to give up
[02:18.41]But I’m thankful that I’m
[02:20.50]Strong as I am and I’ll
[02:22.78]Try to do the best I can
[02:26.81]Tears will run swift
[02:28.73]And tears will come that fall like rain
[02:34.57]I pray that it’s swift though
[02:36.42]Tears will fall as cold as pain
[02:42.88]I pray to the almighty
[02:45.37]Let us not do as he has unto us
[02:50.80]Teach my beloved children I’ve been a slave
[02:54.01]But reach for the light continually
[02:58.79]Wisdom is the flame
[03:01.27]Wisdom is the brave warrior
[03:04.40]Who will carry us into the sun
[03:07.22]I pray that it’s swift though
[03:10.24]Tears will come that fall like rain
[03:23.90]So many times, so many times
