twenty-four oceans, twenty-four skies,
twenty-four failures in twenty four tries.
Tweny-four finds me in twenty-fourth place.
With twenty-four dropouts at the end of the day.
Life is not what I thought it was
twenty-four hours ago.
Still I’m singing Spirit take me up in arms with You.
And I’m not who I thought I was
twenty-four hours ago
Still I’m singing Spirit take me up in arms with You.
Twenty-four reasons to admit that I’m wrong
with all my excuses still twenty-four strong.
But see I’m not copping out
when you’re raising the dead in me.
Oh, I am a second man
oh, I am a second man now
oh, I am a second man now
and you’re raising these twenty-four voices
with twenty-four hearts
with all os my symphonies in twenty-four parts
but I want to be one today
centered in true
I want to see miracles
to see the world change
I wrestled the angel
for more than a name
for more than a feeling
for more than a cause
Still I’m singing Spirit take me up in arms with You.
You’re raising the dead in me
