The Faithful Drum
- My Drum beats
- Pushing back the
darkness
- Making a space
- For me
- For you
- For He Who Waits
- Spirit flies
between us
- Your heart
- His heart
- My heart
- And the drum
- Are one
- One hundred
thousand beats each day
- For seven
thousand days
- His drumbeats
fly between the bars
- On spirit wings
to link with ours
- And not their
guns
- And not their
gates
- And not their
walls
- And not their
hates
- Have stopped
that heart
- Have stilled the
drum
- Of He Who Waits
- The rythym
quickens
- Spirit smiles
- Thunder dances
on the drums
- Jailers wonder
at the sounds
- They almost
cannot hear
- A million hearts
join in
- With you
- With me
- With Him
- A million mouths
- Thunder whisper
- Just one name
- Peltier!
- One hundred
thousand beats each day
- For seven
thousand days
- And each day
brings a few more drums
- More hearts to
join the faithful ones
- One mighty sound
- That resonates
- Through prison
halls
- Reverberates
- The drumbeat of
our hearts
- Echoes all
around
- For he Who waits
- People of all
nations
- Rise to drum for
Him
- Spirit flies
accross all borders
- Teaching from
his heartbeat drum
- That while one
lies in chains
- Then none are
free
- Not one
- Listen to the
drumbeat
- Let your heart
join in
- These hearts all
drum for freedom
- For me
- For you
- For Him.
