Message From The Mission

 


For all our eyes, we don’t see

For all our chains, we have freedom

We reach out in the night

Longing for the sun

A message from the mission comes

Sayin’ Hold on

 

For all our words, we don’t hear

For all our changes we still fear them

We comes mystified, puzzled at the end

A message from the mission comes

Sayin’ Amen

 

You better hold on

Hold on, hold on

Hold on

We reach out in the night

Longing for the sun

A message from the mission comes

Sayin’ Hold on

 

For all our lives, we don’t live

For what we’ve taken, we’ve not given

We stand crucified deafened by the guns

A message from the mission comes

Sayin’ Hold on

Your better hold on, Hold on

Hold on,

You got to hold on

You got to hold on

You got to hold on, Hold on

You got to hold on, Hold on

You got to hold on, Hold on
