There’s a thunder rollin’ far across the sea tonight Feels like history’s breathin’ down our necks again We’re glued to screens and headlines fight for truth and time Tryin’ to read between the fear and spin They say the storm’s been brewin’ decades in the dark Hatred planted deep in wounded ground Leaders preachin’ power from a guarded heart While their people barely make a sound Why’s freedom feel forbidden in that land? Why’s hope gotta whisper underground? If we’ve got the strength to lend a hand Are we liftin’ up or tear-in’ down? Every answer feels like sand in my hands Every truth feels hard to find Lord, show us the line Between justice and pride Between savin’ a life And the tears that we hide Are we fightin’ for good Or just fightin’ in time? When the smoke fills the sky Lord, show us the line Show us the line… show us the line… We got the strongest soldiers this world’s ever known But strength don’t make the question small How many sons won’t ever make it home? How many mothers get that call? Will the children wake to brighter days? Or more broken streets and shattered homes? If we tear the tyrant’s walls away Do the people finally stand alone? I try to listen through the noise and lies But the truth keeps changin’ sides Lord, show us the line Between justice and pride Between savin’ a life And the tears that we hide Are we fightin’ for good Or just fightin’ in time? When the smoke fills the sky Lord, show us the line Show us the line… show us the line… Do we trust the words we’re told? Do we follow blind or brave? Is this how Your story’s written Or the cost of choices made? Will this be a step ahead? Or a scar we can’t rewind? Are we holdin’ back the darkness Or just changin’ its disguise? What are You thinkin’, God above? Are we wrong or right this time? Lord, show us the line Between mercy and might Between standin’ for truth And another long fight We’re down on our knees Searchin’ heaven for signs If we’re walkin’ Your road Lord, show us the line Show us the line… Show us the line… Lord, show us the line… I guess I’ll keep prayin’ tonight… Till the morning brings a sign.
