paroles de chanson The Battle - Nathaniel Chapman

If I could show you what I see
I see a field that once was green
But now it is red with the blood of a war
From those who knew not what this would afford

Some came a-running ready to fight
Some came a-trembling with tears in their eyes
But the moment the first soldier went down
Oh, the question was destined, do we keep fighting now
Yeah, the question was destined, do we keep fighting now

If I could show you what I hear
It′s the shot of a harsh tongue falling on my ear
An untethered mouth is an argument's gun
Yeah, causing a battle where need not be one

But some will enter the battle in peace
Seeking to listen rather than speak
And only when needed will they utter a word
Like rain on a fire their words will be heard
Like rain on a fire their words will be heard

If I could ask you a question right now
Please tell me what is this fight all about
So many soldiers are raising their swords
When it′s for each other we should be fighting for
Yeah, it's for each other we should be fighting for

If I could show you what I see
I see a table set for a King
A feast for a wedding and a bride dressed in white
And Jesus the Groom who's the life and the light
Where all things are answered and all things made clear
The brothers and sisters will live in peace there
And the battles between us will all disappear
Yeah, the battles between us will all disappear

Know this, beloved
I say this in fear
This is for all those who have ears to hear
This is for all those who have ears to hear
