Watch the Children Pray - Metal Church

In a darkened graveyard glows a light

I see it shine there every night

I know somewhere there’s a hidden door

There’s an answer here we must explore

No, I’ll not submit to reason

I’ll sit and watch the seasons change

We watch the children pray

Save us God today

Come whatever may

We hold our fate and make the choice

But we’ll not listen to that still small voice

Are we just crazy, out of our minds?

Wish this were someplace, another time

We watch the children pray

Save us God today

Come whatever may

And I know we’re going

So far away from this wretched life we lead

With open arms meet catastrophe

In the valley of the damned we’ll be

We watch the children pray

Save us God today

Come whatever may

And now to life we say goodbye

I know the when but not the why

Our nation’s blood spills on the ground

Our lives go out without a sound
