Can I be with You?

Todd Agnews låt "Ca I be with You?" er en låt som har gått rett inn i hjertet mitt i disse dager. Både fordi stemmen hans er helt rå, men også fordi melodi og låt er sterk. Hadde lyst til å dele teksten med dere, og nederst kan du lytte til sangen. (musikkvideo) 

Can I be with You?


Everybody, each and allWe're gonna die eventuallyIt's no more or less our faultThan it is our destiny
So now, Lord, I come to YouAsking only for Your graceYou know what I've put myself throughAll those empty dreams I chased
And when my body lies in the ruinsOf the lies that nearly ruined meWill You pick up the pieces that were pure and trueAnd breathe life into them, set them free?
And when You start this world over again from scratchWill You make me anew out of the stuff that lasts?Stuff that's purer than gold isAnd clearer than glass could ever beCan I be with You? Can I be with You?
Everybody, all and eachFrom the day that we are bornWe have to learn to walk beneathThose mercies by which we're drawn
And now we wrestle in the darkWith these angels that we can't seeWe will move on although with scarsOh Lord, move in me
And when my body lies in the ruinsOf the lies that nearly ruined meWill You pick up the pieces that were pure and trueAnd breathe life into them and set them free?
When You blast this cosmos to kingdom comeWhen those jagged edged mountains we love are goneWhen the sky is crossed with the tearsOf a thousand falling suns as they crash into the seaCan I be with You? Can I be with You?
Can I be with You? Can I be with You?Can I be with You? Can I be with You?
And when my body lies in the ruinsOf the lies that nearly ruined meWill You pick up the pieces that were pure and trueAnd breathe life into them and set them free?
(Can I be?)Will You set them free?(Can I be with You?)Will You set them free?(Can I be with You?)(Can I be with You?)Set me free
