You promised us
Hear it way over,
Coming from the other side,
Sounding, like a pounding trample across the desert storm,
And the ground shifted as much as the sea level.
A total wash out!
No mercy,
No surrender,
No retreat,

O' he, O' he,
Why are you letting us down?
Hear the cry of our innocent souls.
Hear the sound of our sorrows.
You said Noah's deluge,
Was our last water resort?
And with a rainbow
You promised us!
You promised us!

These demons hit us so badly.
Could it be the four horsemen of the apocalypse?
The flame wave upon the sky,
Our universe is covered with the shadow of darkness.
Smoke is in our eyes!
No pity,
No sanctuary
Hell is on wheels!

Sorry father for we have sinned.
Is that enough to save us now?
You said in time of needs
Raise our heads and ask for help.
Father helps us!
In this great time of trial,
You promised us!
You promised us!

If it's our transgressions,
We beg your pardon Master!
For our iniquities,
Have mercy Seigneur!


Keep in mind
You created us human
Save the thought
That we have our faults

We come for forgiveness
Because we have sensed our wrong
With the voice of our conscience
It is much too strong
In this time now your patience is needed

Note from author:  Inspired by the Haiti earthquake, Japan earthquake and the  Philippines hurricane.
