[00:07.52] Was there nothing but the hush of night?
[00:16.24] Had a boat; don't remember where.
[00:25.24] Did you flee from what was said and seen?
[00:37.15] Truth's not true under the light of lies.
[00:43.26] Raise your sword and shield.
[00:47.90]
[00:53.08] Was there more than just the prose of night?
[01:01.68] Had a grave; don't remember where.
[01:10.77] Beaten down awhile I lift up my prayer.
[01:22.61] Broken promises have set the snare;both sincere and not.
[01:33.46]
[01:43.58] Was there nothing but the blessed night?
[01:51.92] Had some gold but don't remember where.
[02:00.90] When does faith lift up its head so high?
[02:13.14] Oh, my Lord, won't you please tell me
[02:17.88] Why faith bestows power?
[02:23.86]
[02:28.49] Was there nothing but the hush of night?
[02:37.09] Had a treasure but I don't know where.
[02:45.78] Did you flee from what was said and seen?
[02:57.69] Yes, the good was not without the bad.
[03:03.83] Raise your sword and shield.
[03:08.50]
[03:12.97] Yes, the good was not without the bad.
[03:18.65] Raise up your sword and shield.
