Matthew Stephen - We Strive, O Lord!

Waiting for the dawn of glory
All our fathers tell us stories
Of a mighty King
Dial in and take a listen
O Jehovah's little children
Have you heard the prophecy that

The long awaited
Son of David
Will come to take His throne
Robed in power
He'll devour
Everything that's not His own
We're waiting to be justified
We're waiting for that sun to rise

Generations now have passed by
We still wrestle, we still try
To save ourselves
The blood of rams and bulls shall cleanse us
And countless hours of our lives
Are spent in holy sacrifice to God to save us all from Hell but

The long awaited
Son of David
Will come to take His throne
Robed in power
He'll devour
Everything that's not His own
We're waiting to be justified
We're waiting for that sun to rise

How long O Lord
How long O Lord
Will we be cast from Thee
We cry O Lord
We strive O Lord
We wait for our Messiah's peace

The long awaited
Son of David
Has come to take His throne
Mad with power
We'll devour
Everything He calls His own
We know that we are justified
We've waited for that Son to rise
How dare He claim to be our Christ
We're crying now to crucify
