Chords of a Man - Lot

Lot lifted up his eyes, saw the entire plain of the Jordan
Watered well with peaceful skies, reminiscent of the garden of Jehovah
Carried on and journeyed east, left Abram with one or the other
Said it was to bring in peace, until Abram had to fight for the brother

Your choice was so inclined
To dwell among the blind
Her pillar will remind
Don’t ever look behind

The battle was among the kings, one had fled and reported you were taken
Like an army fit with wings, Abram never thought of leaving you forsaken
Kings of four defeated five, yet behind the scenes you had an intercessor
To ensure you’d stay alive through heaven and earth’s sole possessor

Your choice was so inclined
To dwell among the blind
Her pillar will remind
Don’t ever look behind

Peradventure there be fifty righteous within
Without Abraham’s plea, you’d be condemned in their sin

Cries among the wicked grew till their outcry had reached as far as heaven
You were righteous yet you knew the whole are compromised by just a little leaven
They urged you not to linger on lest you die in the imminent destruction
Fire came and you were gone, your soul was spared but your seed bred corruption

Your choice was so inclined
To dwell among the blind
Her pillar will remind
Don’t ever look behind
