Lyrics

[Verse 1] Dust in the air Heat on the stones Crowds pressed tight Breath held close A man on the ground Hands like empty bowls Eyes chasing help Through sandals and robes [Chorus] Here in the dust Your hand Turns shaking bones to stand One touch The world turns bright Hands over dust and light Whispered name on every tongue Old fear breaks New breath is sung Stone streets remember this sight Hands over dust and light [Verse 2] You kneel so slow Face lined with care Sun wraps Your shoulders Gold in Your hair Your fingers rest On fevered skin Silence like thunder Roaring within [Chorus] [Bridge] Time moves like honey Each heartbeat aloud Tears streak like rivers Through the watching crowd He pulls in air First full Clean breath Raises his head Walks out of death [Chorus]
