A Glimpse of God Lyrics

Grant me a piece of darkness
Grant me a glimpse of God
The sum of all fears
Lives given and taken
Passion and horror comined
O perfect redemption, withdrawal of blood
To every beliver, the promise of God
The vilest offender who truly believes
That moment from His lips a pardon recieves
A perfect creation, a flawless mistake
A beautiful flower of virtues regained
Blossom and grow until Heavens above
Are within reach, just waiting
To be ours again
Grant me a piece of darkness
Celestial void of wishes, ignored
The sum of all prayers
Lies heard, lies spoken
Hope and disappointment
Together as one
Sacrifice and suffering
Everyone must learn
Sacrifice and suffering
In the dark of night
Pity , compassion, forgivness
All these virtues the world no longer remembers
Can they be right? Am I void? Am I hollow?
All I know is everything I do I do for the love of God
Grant me a piece of darkness
A glimpse of divine dread
Grant me a piece of darkness
A perfect image of thy face
Pity, compasion, forgivness
Cruelty, indifference, punishment
Pity, compasion, forgivness
Resentment, indifference, revenge
Great things He hath taught us, great things He hath done
And great our joy, each one His son
But purer, and bleaker, and greater will be
The night – our purpose, The twilight we seek
