Lyrics to "Restoration"

Deborah’s Song (Part 1)

 

Restoration

 

When we did what was right

In our own eyes

We were taken away

We were caught by surprise

 

Our  highways  abandoned,

Our villages ceased The travelers kept to the byways.

The land had no peace

 

When the Lord went before us

The heavens came down

The clouds dropped their water

And You shook the ground

 

(Chorus) 

We were so tired

And  hope was gone

Out of the silence

We hear a song

Restoration

 

My heart goes out 

To those of you

Who offered themselves

So willingly

 

My heart can sing

Melodies to the Lord

Those that love You shall be 

With a heart restored

 

When the Lord went before us

The heavens came down

The clouds dropped their water

And You shook the ground  

 

(Chorus) 

We were so tired

And  hope was gone

Out of the silence

We hear a song

Restoration

 

Hear O kings

All you in high places

Let us sing

Sing to the God 

who saves us

Restoration
