Save Us

Save us
Lead us
Guide us
Free us

A miracle took place
So it was written
Two centuries ago

In Bethlehem it‘s said
A child was born
Raised from God's lap

He gave us a savior
His own flesh and blood
To save this mode of life

He gave a sacrifice
To remind us
Of his compassion

He gave us words
We should repeat
To be near to him

He gave us sins
We should exercise
For self punishment

Save us
Lead us
Guide us
Free us

Blind and numb
Like a child fed by the breast
Of rotting words and promises

Flee from self-determination
Run into my holy arms

Save us from heresy
Lead us into eternity
Guide us under your holy wings
Free us from our earthly sins

A parable of contradiction
A reading of apathy
An embrace of bleakness
A gesture of acceptance

And if denied to follow
You’ll be serving the faithless
A treason to your own kind
We shall take what he has given

And if denied to follow
You’ll be serving the faithless
A treason to your own kind
We shall take what he has given
