moore geoff and the distance _ red moon lyrics

From the album foundations 



Billy Smiley/Dave Perkins

Revelation 6:12



Questions rise on an autumn night

As I make my escape from a noisy life

I walk through the park with a world of care

What's gone wrong, how did I get here

Then a whispering wind said lift your eyes

As a scarlet moon hung low in the sky

Truth comes home in the strangest ways

And hope returns like You will some day

I will lift my eyes

Come on lift me higher

Come on lift me higher

Chorus

When I see the red moon rise

When I see the red moon rise

Like a promise You're coming back to these skies

When I see the red moon rise

Crowded streets in a cross_town car

The things of which my mornings are

But my heart is high like the moon last night

And it makes me feel I can win this fight

Oh, my heart is high

Come on take me higher

Come on take me higher

Chorus

Promises here will fade away

Our best intentions be mislaid

But the hope of the cross and the empty grave

Will carry me through until that day

Repeat Chorus
