Third Day Album: Carry Me Home EP Track: Cross of Nails
Cross of Nails Lyrics
One cold November A war retook the night A church is left to ruin A town is left to die The morning after We start to build again You can burn down a building But you can't destroy a faith
Rise up and fly again True love, it never fails Rise up and fly again We will not forget Your cross of nails
When the war was over We traveled across for miles To set a true example of love reconciled No longer fighting Forget about the blame Let's put the past behind us And hope for better days
Father, forgive us We know not what we do Father, forgive us We want to live for You
The hatred that divides us all And coveting what is not our own And greed exploiting works of human hands Our envy of our other man Indifference to the suffering The lust and pride and all our other sins
