Eternity

Lyrics

I carried my soul to the mountainside To try and remember the times I'd cried For a world where strangers hunt for peace A world where danger waits for me Not a tear remembered For a billion dying, injured souls My God, what's wrong with me? Are there no tears left for humanity? For I've seen eternity Open its doors for me Touching this mountain I climb And I've seen eternity Pour out His life for me I carried my soul to the mountainside To look at the cities far and wide I saw the masses buried there Their frantic struggles to get somewhere They remain imprisoned Searching for an inner vision Lost way back in history Why can't I feel their misery? For I've seen eternity Open its doors for me Touching this mountain I climb And I've seen eternity Pour out His life for me Reaching beyond space and time Sorry, I'm really quite sorry I've given all that I can How easily we repeat the lie To the One who gave up His life Sorry, it's not enough to be sorry For the triumph of love Can never be complete While Jesus searches For the ones who are lost Out there in the streets I carried my soul to the mountainside To the very hill where they crucified The only Son that God could send His only Son who died for men And my tears remembered A billion dying, injured souls Who lay awaiting me To share with them His victory For I've seen eternity Open its doors for me Touching this mountain I climb And I've seen eternity Pour out His life for me Reaching beyond space and time I've seen eternity Open its doors for me Touching this mountain I climb And I've seen eternity Pour out His life for me Reaching beyond space and time Whoa-oh... Touching this mountain I climb I've seen eternity Pour out His life for me
