Overcome

from Metanoia by Samuel Joseph Kim

/

lyrics

I heard a voice
Say unto me
On New Year's day
When these words shouldn't be
You shall overcome
You shall overcome

I heard a voice
Say unto me
On New Year's day
When these words shouldn't be
You shall overcome
You shall overcome

Deep in my heart I still believed
And that's all I could do
When there was nothing there to see
And when I went from cliff to valley
I had nothing left for me
And nothing made me weak
but that's when I could see

And I saw the time of thieves
Who crawled upon our thrones
Would find their time would end
And not from what I know
And not from who I am
But because the light will shines upon the time
And Time will the Truth
And Time will not be kind
And Time will not be theirs
For this is not their time
For this is not their time
For this is not their time
But ours

I heard a voice
Preaching unto me
When freedom could not get free
You shall overcome
You shall overcome

And I felt I would stand
Even though I was lying in the sand
That somehow my fears
My fear of man, and the power of my plans
The child would soon come forth
To stop me from my crying
And call me out to stand

And I was jealous for worldly things
Like a beggar with no father
Starving with no mother
And I forgot my easy teachings
And my love for love of seeking
and my heart was lost in sinking
when I counted on all my rings
How can I overcome

On New Year's day
Eden came to me
A future of a female Sun
Shining, shining out
How can I overcome
How can I overcome

You shall overcome
You shall overcome
