The Watchman

The night is long the worlds asleep
Sin runs wild the wounds run deep
I see the storm I hear the cry
If I stay silent theyll surely die
I am the watchman
I wont stand still
Sound the warning speak Gods will
I am the watchman
I wont retreat
The blood of men wont be on me
Truth cuts deep it costs your peace
But silence kills the souls release
Their blood cries out their chains still ring
If I dont speak I mock my King
I am the watchman
I wont stand still
Sound the warning speak Gods will
I am the watchman
I wont retreat
The blood of men wont be on me
If the watchman sees the sword and fails to warn
Their blood I will require at his hand
The truth must burn the call must sound
No comforts worth the lost and bound
Sound the warning
The night is here
Preach the truth
Without fear
Stand the wall
Never sleep
I am the watchman Gods to keep
I am the watchman
I wont stand still
Sound the warning speak Gods will
I am the watchman
I wont retreat
The blood of men wont be on me
The wall is high
The night is dark
But I will not close my eyes
