The Salvation of One
The streets are paved with gold
I can't find my soul it's everywhere
Tears of blood fall down
And stain the face of love, I find you there
Our dreams are coming true
But are we really breaking through if love is lost?
I hear the knocking at the door
What would you do for?
The salvation of one
Dalit! Dalit!
Sing to me of love
The dignity of every soul
Angels whisper war
The bride of God lies still on the floor
But on the howling wind
She wakes to begin again with the cry of one
Around her heart lay a crown of thorns
What would she not do for?
The salvation of one
The salvation of one
Dalit! Dalit!
I touch the flaming sword
It burns me to the core with sacred fire
The Salvation of One
Writer/s: Jonathan Jackson
