poor bishop hooper – hope (zechariah) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
old man hidden in
a ritual, cavernous
put your head down, do your stint
oil and incense

[verse 2]
barren so long that
you’ve gotten quite used to it
remember when you used to wish
still you never quit, still you never quit

[chorus]
zachariah, chosen by lot
all alone in the temple with god
how could he have seen the angel coming with a word, brand new?
to shatter hopelessness forever, shatter hopelessness forever

[verse 3]
are you hearing things, could it be as it seems?
the hopeful voice before you’s been quiet for centuries
truly there will be a very real offspring
for your boy awaits divine appointing

[chorus]
“zachariah, you can know this
for i come from the very presence
how could you believe that i was sent by the most high and lifted god?
to shatter hopelessness forever, shatter hopelessness forever
shatter hopelessness forever, shatter hopelessness forever”
[interlude]

[bridge]
now listen for you must
i’ll give your words to your son
don’t lose hope or lose trust
he is a so very special one, none
none borne of women like him
none will be greater than him
for the prophets all foretold him
there’s a messenger in him

[refrain]
he’ll make ready for the lord all the people
he’ll make ready for the lord all his children
he’ll make ready for the lord all who listen
he’ll make ready the way, ready the way
he’ll make ready for the lord all the people
he’ll make ready for the lord all his children
he’ll make ready for the lord all who listen
he’ll make ready the way, ready the way

[chorus]
zachariah, chosen by lot
all alone in the temple with god
how could he have seen the angel coming with a word, brand new? (how could he have seen the angel coming with a word, brand new?)
to shatter hopelessness forever, shatter hopelessness forever
[outro]
shatter hopelessness forever, shatter hopelessness forever
shatter hopelessness forever, shatter hopelessness forever
forever
