Song Lyrics

"Seventy Times Seven"

by David Meece
Album: Odyssey

This prison has no walls
This bondage has no chains
My memories have no mercy
There's no one left to blame
Wish I could force back the hands
Of time and right every wrong
Grant me just this one last chance
Before it's gone
Gone, gone, gone

How could I be so blind
As to doubt your love'
And how can I go on living
Without your love'

Seventy times seven
Will you forgive me for all that I've done'
Seventy times seven
I'm so afraid of what I've become

For all the promises laid to waste
For all the seeds unsown
For all the justice I never faced
I must now atone

Is there a soul that can't be saved'
Is there a heart that has no hope'
Is there a peace that can still be made'
Please say it's so

How could I be so blind
As to doubt your love'
And how can I go on living
Without your love'

Seventy times seven
Will you forgive me for all that I've done'
Seventy times seven
I'm so afraid of what I've become
Seventy times seven
Will you forgive all that I've done'
Seventy times seven
I'm so afraid of what I've become

And, if should kneel before you
Would you lay your hands on me
Or turn me away'
And, even if I should tremble
Deep in my heart I won't be afraid
I won't be afraid

Seventy times seven
I won't be afraid
I won't be afraid
Seventy times seven
I won't be afraid, no, no

Seventy times seven
Will you forgive me for all that I've done'
Seventy times seven
I'm so afraid of the man I've become
Seventy times seven
Will you forgive all that I've done'
Seventy times seven
Your love can save me
From what I've become

Seventy times seven
Seventy times seven
(fade)
