Hide yourself in faithful dreams before you live your life
To heal the wounded leper to calm the raging storm
Beneath this broken cross of sin stained with men's denial

Slip away to heaven and rest in gentle peace
With perfect steps of perfect grace you leave behind your fear
And though you now are breathless with thorns upon your head

Never to awaken the Lord your soul to keep
And walk along these dusty roads though your fate is clear
Your body has been broken so your children can be fed

Your heart has saved the souls of men your hands now bear the scars
