apologetix - elijah's lament lyrics
[verse 1]
yes, jezebel warned me
she made an oath to her gods
she said, “i plan today to put an end to you”
i ducked out before then, and my road now is long
let’s just say this man could use some tennis shoes
[chorus]
i’ve prayed fire, and i’ve prayed rain
i’ve seen sunny days and a drought that met their end
i’ve seen holy times when i could call down the flames
but that all was god, and i need him again
[verse 2]
though i look down, i’ve got good reason
it’s not real healthy to take a stand
that despot will slay me soon another day
my god, please take me now, my life’s in your hands
i won’t make it ++ let me pass away
[chorus]
oh, i’ve prayed fire, and i’ve prayed rain
i’ve seen sunny days and a drought that met their end
i’ve seen holy times when i could call down the flames
but that all was god, and i need him again
[verse 3]
been walkin’, i’m primed for some sleepy time
my nap turned short ++ it’s done
the lord brought me a cold drink, though
and some bread ++ i’m better now
with some powerful signs god would tell me don’t whine
he talked about things to come
please see first kings 19 and read the long account
[chorus]
oh, i’ve prayed fire, and i’ve prayed rain
i’ve seen sunny days and a drought that met their end
i’ve seen holy times when i could call down the flames
but that all was god, and i need him greatly
lots more times than then, now
[outro]
lord, i need you lots more times than then
there’s just a cruel queen cursin’ my name
and my morale was down
lord, i need you ++ lord, i need you night and day, now
na+na+na, na+na na+na, na na na
