Letra de Redemption Day (Album Version)
I've wept for those who suffer long But how I weep for those who've gone In rooms of grief and questioned wrong But keep on killingIt's in the soul to feel such things But weak to watch without speaking Oh, what mercy sadness bring If God be willingThere is a train that's headin' straight To heaven's gate, to heaven's gate And on the way child and man and woman waitWatch and wait for redemption day Fire rages in the streets And swallows everything it meets It's just an image often seen, on televisionCome leaders, come ye men of great Let us hear you pontificate Your many virtues laid to waste And we aren't listeningThere is a train that's heading straight To heaven's gate, to heaven's gate And on the way child and man and woman wait Watch and wait, for redemption dayWhat do you have for us today? Throw us a bone but save the plate Oh, why we waited 'til so late Was there no oil to excavate?No riches in trade for the fate Of every person who died in hate Throw us a bone, you men of greatThere is a train that's heading straight To heaven's gate, to heaven's gate And on the way child and man and woman wait Watch and wait for redemption dayIt's buried inn the countryside Exploding in the shells of night It's everywhere a baby cries Freedom, freedom, freedom
