[00:01.000] 作曲 : Andrew Hale/Stuart Matthewman/Paul Denman/Helen Adu
[00:16.56]I see them gathered, see them on the shore
[00:22.12]I turned to look once more
[00:23.81]
[00:24.81]And he who knows me not
[00:26.81]Takes me to the belly of darkness
[00:28.50]
[00:32.93]The tears run swift and hard
[00:34.56]
[00:36.87]And when they fall
[00:37.75]
[00:41.06]Even, even the comfort of a stone
[00:44.06]
[00:44.87]Would be a gain
[00:46.06]
[00:49.31]There was a time when I thought
[00:51.25]
[00:53.31]I would have to give up
[00:54.68]
[00:57.12]But I'm thankful that I'm
[00:58.43]
[00:59.43]Strong as I am and I'll
[01:00.62]
[01:01.43]Try to do the best I can
[01:03.43]
[01:05.62]Tears will run swift
[01:06.89]And tears will come that fall like rain
[01:10.32]
[01:13.50]I pray that it's swift though
[01:15.30]Tears will fall as cold as pain
[01:17.00]
[01:21.85]I pray to the almighty
[01:22.85]
[01:24.29]Let me not to him do
[01:25.54]
[01:26.42]As he has unto me
[01:27.35]
[01:29.73]Teach my beloved children
[01:30.79]
[01:31.85]Who have been enslaved
[01:32.67]
[01:33.54]To reach for the light continually
[01:34.78]
[01:39.60]So many times I prayed
[01:40.91]
[01:43.17]So many times I've prayed for you
[01:47.35]
[01:50.54]Prayed for you
[01:54.28]The tears run swift and hard and cold as pain
[01:59.14]
[02:02.33]Even, even the comfort of a stone would be a gain
[02:07.26]
[02:10.76]Had I not had the strength and wisdom of a warrior
[02:13.27]
[02:14.64]I would have to give up
[02:16.08]
[02:18.46]But I'm thankful that I'm
[02:19.51]
[02:20.64]Strong as I am and I'll
[02:21.82]
[02:22.83]Try to do the best I can
[02:25.33]
[02:26.96]Tears will run swift
[02:27.95]
[02:29.26]And tears will come that fall like rain
[02:31.89]
[02:34.83]I pray that it's swift though
[02:36.08]
[02:36.70]Tears will fall as cold as pain
[02:40.01]
[02:43.20]I pray to the almighty
[02:44.20]
[02:45.70]Let us not do as he has unto us
[02:47.38]
[02:51.33]Teach my beloved children I've been a slave
[02:54.13]
[02:55.08]But reach for the light continually
[02:56.00]
[02:59.53]Wisdom is the flame
[03:00.48]
[03:02.03]Wisdom is the brave warrior
[03:04.50]Who will carry us into the sun
[03:06.20]
[03:07.31]I pray that it's swift though
[03:09.50]Tears will come that fall like rain
[03:12.25]
[03:24.38]So many times, so many times
