Forgive Us Now

Verse 1

I think of all the things we said and I wonder if you heard
It seems we sometimes talked for hours and you didn’t hear a word
Awaiting your reply again as we wait for your return
We listen for a still small voice in the silence on the earth

Chorus

Forgive us now
Will you still deliver us somehow?
Will you reappear to save us now?
Did you hear when I invoked your name?
‘cos you never seemed so far away

Verse 2

You moved among the crowd tonight as we all stood gathered there
And we swayed and fell and danced as well in our fervour and our prayer
I saw your faithful servants as they lay upon the floor
Though I can’t quite say I felt that way and I don’t see you at all
