Lyrics to "Restoration"
Deborah’s Song (Part 1)
Restoration
When we did what was right
In our own eyes
We were taken away
We were caught by surprise
Our highways abandoned,
Our villages ceased The travelers kept to the byways.
The land had no peace
When the Lord went before us
The heavens came down
The clouds dropped their water
And You shook the ground
(Chorus)
We were so tired
And hope was gone
Out of the silence
We hear a song
Restoration
My heart goes out
To those of you
Who offered themselves
So willingly
My heart can sing
Melodies to the Lord
Those that love You shall be
With a heart restored
When the Lord went before us
The heavens came down
The clouds dropped their water
And You shook the ground
(Chorus)
We were so tired
And hope was gone
Out of the silence
We hear a song
Restoration
Hear O kings
All you in high places
Let us sing
Sing to the God
who saves us
Restoration
