A Rescinding Hand Lyrics


"How long Lord?

Will you hide Your face forever?

How long will

Your wrath burn like fire?"

Why does He suffer us for so long?

"Should we sin on now

That grace should abound?"

I know the answer

Yet I had ignored it

Why does He seek out

They so entangled?

"Should we sin on now

That grace should abound?"

I know the answer

Yet I still ignore it

I see the long, indifferent

Stare turning to desolation

Long does He suffer

Long does He await

Can we really be surprised

When our indifference is met

With a rescinding hand

And the shattering of idols?

Long does He suffer

And many still will

See His grace reveal

But He is not mocked

How long will He, then?

When will this end?

Many times before

Another callous horde

"Should we then sin on now

That grace should abound?"

We knew the answer

Yet here we continue

Here we are now

Meet the rescinding hand

Shattered be the altars

"How long Lord?

Will you hide Your face forever?

How long will

Your wrath burn like fire?"
