Tribulation Hymn Lyrics
It was just like the lightning
Flashes East to West
Just like an oncoming storm
It was just like a coffin
Hollow in my chest
Just like the Bible, just like I'd been warned
I was tending a garden
Pulling up the weeds
Trying to bear righteous fruit
But a man's fertile soil
Satan sows his seed
He could plow up your garden and plant a poison root
He came for my sister
She walked and never trailed
She'd follow wherever he'd lead
But I took the highway
I faltered and I fell
He came for my sister but he did not come for me
Now I kneel at the altar
Church of vacant pews
In the rafters a chorus of crows
They sing like a hymnal
Rusted organ tunes
Sing like the broken heart of one who knows
Flashes East to West
Just like an oncoming storm
It was just like a coffin
Hollow in my chest
Just like the Bible, just like I'd been warned
Pulling up the weeds
Trying to bear righteous fruit
But a man's fertile soil
Satan sows his seed
He could plow up your garden and plant a poison root
She walked and never trailed
She'd follow wherever he'd lead
But I took the highway
I faltered and I fell
He came for my sister but he did not come for me
Church of vacant pews
In the rafters a chorus of crows
They sing like a hymnal
Rusted organ tunes
Sing like the broken heart of one who knows
