Bringing Back the Ark
Time like sand passes by. We don’t know it’s gone.
Faces changed and left again, I was all alone.
I recall near the fall that there were tears and pain.
You were true. You came through and pulled me out of the rain.
There are people in my life who cut me down in strife.
They can’t feel my heart burn.
At times I just can’t recognize the human deep inside—
The answer is deep in your eyes.
Each time I find you bringing back the ark to me,
And I see you loving me with godly unity.
Bringing back the ark, you see.
Sometimes I realize that the pain is near,
But you call just in time to make gray skies clear.
Together love conquers all, and they will know
Without you by my side I don’t know where to go.
There are people in my life who cut me down in strife.
They can’t feel my heart burn.
At times I just can’t recognize the human deep inside—
The answer is deep in your eyes.
Each time I find you bringing back the ark to me,
And I see you loving me with godly unity.
Bringing back the ark, you see.
The faith I have in you is something I will treasure.
The faith I have in you is something I will never lose.
There are people in my life who cut me down in strife.
They can’t feel my heart burn.
At times I just can’t recognize the human deep inside—
The answer is deep in your eyes.
Each time I find you bringing back the ark to me,
And I see you loving me with godly unity.
Bringing back the ark, you see.
