The Nazarene Lyrics

Who had ever thought that the death of a king

The news burning hot in the cold of a dream

I'm awake but I'm not still it's bittersweet bittersweet to me

Get up and take the child is what he said

The ones who seek his life are dead

I'm old enough to know it's not some voice in my head not just some voice there in my head

This angel's come before I'm starting to get used to it

Where will you have us go this night?

Another wandering in low light

Not waiting 'til the morning I won't waste no time

Watch my beauty and my son rub the sleep from their eyes

When I tell them I can tell it's no surprise no surprise to them

Sometimes it's easier to trudge along in the dark

With the friendship of the quiet and the company of stars

Any road you say to go is never too far never far too far

And the Lord will lead my steps if i just let him lead my heart

Where will you have us go this night?

Another wandering in low light

I still feel bad about the last time

And all the blood that we left behind

I got to raise my boy and raise him right

In the promised land at the prophet's guide

Don't understand it but their words might

Be fulfilled in Nazareth

Don't know how it ever came to this

Feel like raising a prayer alongside a fist

Maybe this time then the dreams will end

In Nazareth Nazareth

But I don't mind it all the hiding

Still I'm kind of tired that this son that's half mine

Is the Son from on high can I even keep him alive

In Nazareth in Nazareth

Where will you have us go this night?

It doesn't matter Lord as long as I listen

Another wandering in low light

Foretelling's never near as clear as fulfillment

I still feel bad about the last time

I'll learn to leave you both the mercy and judgment

For all the blood that we left behind

Is he the one to spill or the one to give

I have some sense that's not the end of it

There's something sacrificial on this kid

From Nazareth from Nazareth from Nazareth
