Life Left Him There

There was a kind and gentle soul

And he was tied up to a chair

Still he loved and never lost

Although life left him there



And when he moaned the timbers shook

The floor beneath him too

And plaster fell on his bare head

The fire was bright and blue



I know we're gonna meet you

I know we're gonna meet you there

I know we're gonna meet you somewhere



Whatever debts are paid in full

Receive me now he cried

And as the walls came crackling down

Believers watched outside



O lamb of God was ever pain

Was ever doubt so rare

And still he loved and never lost

Although life left him there



I know we're gonna meet you

I know we're gonna meet you there

I know we're gonna meet you somewhere



I know we're gonna meet you

I know we're gonna meet you there

I know we're gonna meet you somewhere
