House on a Hill cover
10. The New Country
Album: House on a Hill
Artist: Amanda Cook
 

I've lived my life in the old country
Though not finding peace, my roots have grown deep
I've lived my life in the old country
Its joys and its pain, don't want me to leave

The place I have lived is not what it seems
The praises of man have put me to sleep
I want to know how it feels to be free
I'm not good at goodbyes, but I have to leave

Invited unto death
Till all that I have left
Is everything I need
And I begin to breathe

In the new country
In the new country

I want to live in this sacred space
Be present each moment, each breath that I take
I want a love with nothing to gain
I've heard my beloved, calling my name

Invited unto death
Till all that I have left
Is everything I need
And I begin to breathe
Invited unto death
Till all that I have left
Is everything I need
And I begin to breathe

In the new country
In the new country
In the new country
In the new country

So I will let go and take another step
Crossing the borderline till I find what's next
