《Lift Up The Suffering Symbol》歌词

[00:00:00] Lift Up The Suffering Symbol (The Beginning Album Version) - Michael Card

[00:00:11] They grew tired of bread form heaven

[00:00:14] And of Moses and of God

[00:00:16] They longed to live the life of slavery once again

[00:00:23] So they muttered and they grumbled

[00:00:25] And they wimpered and they whined

[00:00:28] With each faithless word sank deeper into sin

[00:00:34] He took the pen of pain once more

[00:00:37] To write upon their hearts

[00:00:40] The lesson they had been so slow to learn

[00:00:46] But writing in the sand the firey serpents came to call

[00:00:51] With a holy message and a bite that burned

[00:00:57] Lift up the suffering symbol

[00:00:59] And placve it high upon a pole

[00:01:02] Tell the children to look up and be made whole

[00:01:17] So Moses made a metal snake

[00:01:20] And nailed it to a pole

[00:01:23] Sent out the saving word so they would know

[00:01:28] That the symbol of their suffering was now the focus of their faith

[00:01:34] And with a faithful glance the healing power would flow

[00:01:40] In time the brazen serpent became an idol in the land

[00:01:45] And they left the living God to worship clay

[00:01:51] When they forgot their suffering

[00:01:54] Soon true faith had disappeared

[00:01:56] So some idolize a brazen cross today

[00:02:03] Lift up the suffering symbol

[00:02:05] And place it high upon a pole

[00:02:08] Tell the children to look up and be made whole

[00:02:14] Lift up the suffering symbol

[00:02:16] And place it high upon a pole

[00:02:19] Tell the children to look up and be made whole

[00:02:49] Lift up the suffering symbol

[00:02:51] And place it high upon a pole

[00:02:54] Tell the children to look up and be made whole

[00:03:00] Lift up the suffering symbol

[00:03:02] And place it high upon a pole

[00:03:05] Tell the children to look up and be made whole

[00:03:11] Tell the children to look up and be made whole
