In the Dust

For as long as I remember And as far as I can see There are pilgrims in a valley Lost and thirsty just like me We seek shelter in each other When the rocks begin to slide We can't run from what is coming Down the mountainside When it all comes down It all comes down From the ground we were created To the ground we will return Every moment that we've borrowed Every token that we've earned It was His in the beginning And it's His to take away And we can't be sure about nothing But we'll surely know one day When it all comes down It all comes down And this vapour of a life will vanish on the wind Every road I've travelled on will come to an end He'll come riding in and steal me up in a rush Take my place in the light Leave my bones in the dust Ooh-ooh, ooh Ooh-ooh, ooh Ooh-ooh, ooh So I won't root myself too deeply In this valley where we dwell I won't tie myself to nothing That tells my soul it isn't well I will wait and I will wonder Only time will tell When it all comes down It all comes down When this vapour of a life will vanish on the wind Every road I've travelled on will come to an end He'll come riding in and steal me up in a rush Take my place in the light And I will leave this vessel broken down on the shore Any shadows down below won't haunt me any more Any shackles on my hands will turn to rust Take my place in the light (take my place in the light) Leave my bones in the dust (leave my bones in the dust) Take my place in the light Leave my bones in the dust
