Generate meaning
1
In dark, filthy places, forsaken, forgotten
2
Our brothers and sisters are paying a price
3
They will not deny Him to purchase their freedom
4
For these are the faithful, the martyrs for Christ.
5
Twisted and broken, abandoned and beaten
6
Their bodies confined an unseen sacrifice
7
But deep in their spirits, they know perfect freedom
8
For they are the ones who've been set free by Christ
9
CHORUS
10
From under the altar the voices are crying,
11
"How long Lord, till you come judge the earth?"
12
But He'll wrap and redeem them in robes of pure white
13
For the blood of the martyrs is the seed of the church.
14
For the blood of the martyrs is the seed of the church.
15
The deafening silence--their faithful refusal
16
To doubt or deny in the presence of men
17
They live by His promise beofre His own Father
18
That in His Kingdom, He'll not deny them
19
CHORUS
20
Bridge:
21
"How long Lord?
22
How long till You come again to take us home?"
