lyrics

“I was there when you went under the water.”
[Music by Elisha Mullins; lyrics by R. Michael Cook]

“Nature is mortal; we shall outlive her. When all the suns and nebulae have passed away, each one of your will still be alive.”
 - C.S. Lewis, The Weight of Glory

Stars fail,
what did we gain?
Night falls upon us,
And nothing shall be the same.

I knew Suns cooled,
But the sky is ice.
Frost drips from the lion’s mane,
And nothing shall be the same.

I was there when you went under the water.
I was there when you took a new face
I was there when you went under the water.
I was there when you came back from space.

Ha-mashiakah!

The music ceases,
maestro bows.
His baton waves against the grain,
And nothing shall be the same.

I know nothing
Except I was wrong.
Judgment falls like rain,
And nothing shall be the same.
