Son Of Hell
Consider The Thief
Lord
Please tell me what it is I used to do
Was I not a prophet, or a dreamer, or a seer?
All people I had fooled
Please tell me who it is used to be
Did I not proselytize over land and sea
Begetting twice the sons of hell as me?
And tell me, Lord
Who holds the key the heaven's narrow doors?
'Cause every time I try to open them
I open my right hand and find a stone
And with my left
Outstretched for every gift that I produce
I lay in wait for seven more
To compensate for every gift that I misuse
Oh, in all I've done
I've done all in vain
Till I learned to say
Thy will be done
In all I was
I was all in vain
I will learn to obey
Thy will be done
All who hold to the words to surrender all
To who gives and takes away, and builds from naught
