Shadows cover
05. Cry of the Oppressed
Album: Shadows
Artist: In the Midst of Lions
         
 

This is a cry of the oppressed! I fix my eyes above and I scream for relief. This suffering is just too much. My God, hear my cry. My throat is raw from screaming and the pain is setting in. What’s become of my life? This isn’t how I imagined it. My throat is raw from screaming and the pain is setting in. What’s become of my life? This isn’t how I imagined it.

He is faithful. He has heard my cry.

This darkness will not be allowed to be the end. Deliver me from the hands of my oppressors. (x2) Show me the light. Show me the light. I fix my eyes above and I scream for relief. This suffering is just too much. I will trust in a God who first trusted in me to save me from the hands that placed me here. Free me from my oppressors. Lead me from the chains that bind me here. Free me from my oppressors. Lead me from the chains that bind me here. I will trust in a God who first trusted in me to save me from the hands that placed me here. I am free.

I’m no longer a stranger in a foreign land. The promises made have been answered. I will walk with my head held high proclaiming the name of the one who saved me.

This is a cry of the oppressed! (x3)
