City of the Lan'anara - IX

SONG OF THE FREE We walked in darkness now seeing great light Out of the shadows into your sunshine Joy has began great celebrations Joining one-voice worshiping nation Chains I was bound now have been broken Doors that were shut have been flung wide open Joy has began great celebration Joining one-voice worshiping nation This is a song a song of free We sing hosanna We've been redeemed cause our humble king... Has shown us compassion Chains I was bound now have been broken Doors that were shut have been flung wide open Joy has began great celebration Joining one-voice worshiping nation This is a song a song of free We sing hosanna We've been redeemed cause our humble king... Has shown us compassion So we fall to our knees... Throw up our hands... Cry to the lamb that was slain We say You are worthy of all the praise you are, you are (repeat 4 times) By Austin Yehudi Baruch Phiri

This is the City of the Dead As we lie side by side in bed I'd do something else instead It is the City of the Dead When we went out kickin' around But you got drunk an' fallen down An' I wished I could be like you With the Soho River drinking me down In the City of the Dead Fall in love an' fall in bed It wasn't anything you said Except I know we both lie dead "Don't you know where to cop?" That's what New York Johnny said "You should get to know your town Just like I know mine" While all the windows stare ahead An' the streets are filled with dread Every nation in the world Slinks through the alley after girls What we wear is dangerous gear It'll get you picked on anywhere Though we get beat up we don't care At least it livens up the air But some days we hide inside All courage gone and paralyzed Sniff that wind of ugly tension Today the jerks have got aggression Yeah, today the jerks have got aggression This is the City of the Dead It is the City of the Dead It is the City of the Dead It is the City of the Dead
