Lyrics
Verse 1
I went out to hunt
And I never lifted the bow
My father's words came down on me
About eternal life
And what a man must do to find it
So I knelt
In the trees
And I started to pray
Verse 2
The sun was high
The sun moved
The sun went down
And I kept praying
My knees were broken open
My throat was dry
And I had not asked for forgiveness yet
Not really
Not the way it had to be asked
Wrestle Section
I prayed for myself
I prayed for the sin I came in with
I prayed for the weight of it
I prayed for the lifting of it
I prayed
I prayed for my people
I prayed for the ones who walked with me
I prayed for the records
I prayed they would be kept
I prayed
I prayed for the ones who hated us
I prayed for the ones who would have killed us
I prayed for them by name
The names I will not say
I prayed
Pre-Chorus
And the night came down
And I kept on
And the stars came out
And I kept on
And I did not know
If I was being heard
Or if I was just talking
To the trees
Second Voice enters
Enos
Thy sins are forgiven thee
And thou shalt be blessed
Lead Vocalist
And I heard it
I heard it
And I asked Him how
And He said because of thy faith in Christ
Whom thou hast never seen nor heard
And shall come
Chorus
All day
And into the night
All day
And into the night
I wrestled until I was empty
And then I was filled
And then I was filled
Final Verse
I made a covenant for the records
I made a covenant for my people
I made a covenant for the ones who hated us
That if they ever turned their hearts
The Lord would bring the records to them
And He said yes
And He said yes
And He said yes
Outro
I went out to hunt
And I came back at sunrise
With nothing in my hands
And everything in my chest
