There's no deals to be made with the dawn
Now i fear that our time has come and gone
They say freedom is just a place to hide
Now i'm coming to you with my arms open wide
(oh - won't you tell me)
Where could i go to the lord
Take a prayer with you to heaven for me
Oh - and give it to the lord
Give it to the lord
Cause nothing else could save a sinner
Sinner like me
Oh - but an angel's word
Just an angel's word
Now - oh now - what is - what is too true
What is hard is much too true
Oh - and what's true oh - is much too too hard
And now where - where could i go but to the lord
Mama was hard on us but we could take it
And papa didn't give a damn and he couldn't fake it
They say freedom
Oh - freedom is just an other place to hide
Now i'm coming to you with my arms open wide
(and tell me)
Where could i go - oh - but to the lord
