Chords of a Man - A Land Far Away

I am a servant of the God of my fathers
A chosen remnant in a land far away
Made me protector of a kingdom of captors
But wisdom’s king appealed in hope for this day

And I remember what he prayed

When we’re delivered to the hand of the enemy
And carried captive to a land far away
Hear our prayer toward the land of our fathers
Toward the chosen city, and the house for Your name
O Lord, our cause maintain

I came to know the decree of the plotters
But nothing’s new under the light of the sun
Open windows tame a den full of lions
So I knelt down just like I always have done

And thanked my God with what he prayed

When we’re delivered to the hand of the enemy
And carried captive to a land far away
Hear our prayer toward the land of our fathers
Toward the chosen city, and the house for Your name
O Lord, our cause maintain

I see the land, the city, and dwelling
My aim: His interest, fending off the attack
If God’s move is like a train in its power
Only prayer will pave the way as the track

Always remember what he prayed

When we’re delivered to the hand of the enemy
And carried captive to a land far away
Hear our prayer toward the land of our fathers
Toward the chosen city, and the house for Your name
O Lord, our cause maintain
