How many times

Lord, I've got no more tears to cry
Someone has hurted me, done me wrong
I'm walking wounded, ooh
Lord, this pain is a knife of fire
Why does it have to work out this way ?
Why do the innocent seem to pay ?

How many times
must i stand in the waves of this crashing sea ?
How many times
must i forgive all the hurt that's been done to me ?
Let the jury go, set the sinner free, ooh
Seventy times seven

Lord, i really don't understand
i'm looking round for some stones to throw
You're telling me i should let it go

How many times
must i stand in the waves of this crashing sea ?
How many times
i hear what you're saying inside of me
but i don't understand the mystery
of seventy times seven

How many times
have you wept from the anguish of all my shame ?
How many times
have i nailed you up on your cross of pain ?
You bled from the broken heart and i was to blame
seventy times seven

Lord you know just how hard i have tried ...
...seventy times seven
You gotta see that i'm hurting inside ...
...seventy times seven
Don't you know that my pride is at stake ...
...seventy times seven
So tell me how much one should take ...
...seventy times seven

* Mark Gersmehl / Whiteheart *
