Save me, Lord

Verse 1

My heavy head

Tired of these troubles

Cold winds catch my name on a Sunday

Every porch light turns to stone when I walk past

They look right through my skin

They see a ghost

They see a different flag

Chorus

Oh my Lord

They treated me so low

Yes my Lord

They treated me so low

Called me out of my name

Burned my hope with their shame

But I got a home above

Verse 2

Dusty shoes

Far away from the Tehran trees

Maybe they think my heart beats in a different language

Maybe they think my blood is thick with hate

The baker wont sell

The preacher won't pray

Broken bread

Bitter breath

Buried dreams under a maple tree

Chorus

Oh my Lord

They treated me so low

Yes my Lord

They treated me so low

Called me out of my name

Burned my hope with their shame

But I got a home above

Bridge

I have no silver

I have no gold

Just this spirit that wont be sold

Toss me in the valley

Toss me in the fire

The river is getting higher

But the mountain is where I go

Chorus

Oh my Lord

They treated me so low

Yes my Lord

They treated me so low

Called me out of my name

Burned my hope with their shame

But I got a home above

Outro

I'm going home

One day I'm going home

No more mountains

No more strangers

Just Your mercy

Just Your peace

Amen

Amen
