Once there was a soul so full of shadows
That hopelessness was all that he could see
So, in the storm of suffering he cried out
And clung to the God he still believed
The compassion of his friends had all forsaken
The passion of his wife had disappeared
All the looks on their faces, it failed him
And the only visage left him was the face that he most feared
All he ever wanted, all he could ever need
All his questions answered so he could still believe
To pierce the holiest shadow and look behind the facade
To see the wordless answer of the hidden face of God
On and on, the struggle raged between them
So that neither one would let the other go
The pleas of his praise and the prayers of his rage
Had bound him in a battle with the God he didn't know
Finally, at last he was exhausted
Though beaten up and bloodied, he was glad
He saw the only hope that he had left was
The only hope that he had ever had
All he ever wanted, all he could ever need
All his questions answered, so he could still believe
To pierce the holiest shadow and look behind the facade
To see the wordless answer of the hidden face of God
As he remembered all the pain of all that he had lost
Of all his honest, hopeless ennui
He whimpered that before his ears had heard, but
Now at last his eyes could really see
All I ever wanted, all I could ever need
Not a single question answered, so now I can believe
He pierced the holiest shadow, stepped from behind the facade
Now I know the only answer is the hidden face of God
The hidden face of God
The hidden face of God
