Those charcoal veins that hold this chosen land together,
               Am                                    B7

perhaps this calling is the channel of invention.
              C
I will not blush if others see it as a crime.

However dangerous the road, however distant.
                  Am                          B7
These things won't compromise the will of the design.

Ten thousand demons hammer down with every foot step.

Ten thousand angles rush the wind against my back.

This church of mine may not be recognized by stepol,
             Am                               B7

in salvation in love,
