The God Who Was

Stone by stone, toil and fear
Brick by brick, year to year
Where is He now
This God of our fathers?

Long ago, so we sing
He was there in everything
Where is He now
The God of our fathers?

Where is His promise in the stars?
They've gone away, no lights remain
We dream in darkness and live in pain
We're all alone
He's silent as stone
Still we look to the God who was

Nothing left, broken dreams
Empty hearts, silent screams
Where is He now
The God of our fathers?

Where is His promise in the stars?
They've gone away, no lights remain
We dream in darkness and live in pain
We're all alone
He's silent as stone
He's silent as stone
