about

Amen

Music video by Athina Wilson coming soon.

lyrics

There was a voice,
It sung to me
To feel the weight
Of broken dreams.
To Hold it tight
So to set it free-
That foreign voice,
It sung to me.

Oh lord I tried
To be good and true,
But all it went wrong-
Lord I failed you.
But failing’s what we’re meant to do,
So ashes part
With blooms so new.

AMEN

I walked across
A holy sand-
The place I thought
Was my own land.
But it belongs
Not just to me,
it’s dark but light-
It’s trapped but free.

And lord I lost
So many friends,
By my own greed-
My own revenge.
For all I wanted
Never mattered-
For in the end
My own heart shattered.

AMEN
