Lyrics:
Can't you feel it in your bones Something isn't right here Something that you've always known But you don't know why 'Cause every time the sun goes down We face another night here Waiting for the world to spin around Just to survive But when you see the morning sun Burning through a silver mist Don't you want to thank someone? Don't you want to thank someone for this? Don't you ever wonder why In spite of all that's wrong here There's still so much that goes so right And beauty abounds? 'Cause sometimes when you walk outside The air is full of song here The thunder rolls and the baby sighs And the rain comes down And when you see the spring has come And it warms you like a mother's kiss Don't you want to thank someone? Don't you want to thank someone for this? I used to be a little boy As golden as a sunrise Breaking over Illinois When the corn was tall Yeah, but every little boy grows up And he's haunted by the heart that died Longing for the world that was Before the Fall Oh, but then forgiveness comes A grace that I cannot resist And I just want to thank someone I just want to thank someone for this Now I can see the world is charged It's glimmering with promises Written in a script of stars Dripping from prophets' lips But still, my thirst is never slaked I am hounded by a restlessness Eaten by this endless ache But still I will give thanks for this 'Cause I can see it in the seas of wheat I can feel it when the horses run It's howling in the snowy peaks It's blazing in the midnight sun Just behind a veil of wind A million angels waiting in the wings A swirling storm of cherubim Making ready for the Reckoning Oh, how long, how long? Oh, sing on, sing on And when the world is new again And the children of the King Are ancient in their youth again Maybe it's a better thing A better thing To be more than merely innocent But to be broken then redeemed by love Maybe this old world is bent But it's waking up And I'm waking up 'Cause I can hear the voice of one He's crying in the wilderness "Make ready for the Kingdom Come" Don't you want to thank someone for this? Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Come back soon Come back soon
