《A Church Is Burning》歌词

[00:03:47] A church is burning

[00:03:47] The flames rise higher

[00:03:47] Like hands that are praying, aglow in the sky

[00:03:47] Like hands that are praying, the fire is saying

[00:03:47] "You can burn down my churches, but I shall be free"

[00:03:47] Three hooded men through the back roads did creep

[00:03:47] Torches in their hands while the village lies asleep

[00:03:47] Down to the church where just hours before

[00:03:47] Voices were singing and hands were beating

[00:03:47] And saying, "I won't be a slave any more"

[00:03:47] And a church is burning

[00:03:47] The flames rise higher

[00:03:47] Like hands that are praying, aglow in the sky

[00:03:47] Like hands that are praying, the fire is saying

[00:03:47] "You can burn down my churches, but I shall be free"

[00:03:47] Three hooded men, their hands lit the spark

[00:03:47] Then they faded in the night, and they vanished in the dark

[00:03:47] And in the cold light of morning there is nothing that remains

[00:03:47] But the ashes of a Bible and a can of kerosene

[00:03:47] And a church is burning

[00:03:47] The flames rise higher

[00:03:47] Like hands that are praying, aglow in the sky

[00:03:47] Like hands that are praying, the fire is saying

[00:03:47] "You can burn down my churches, but I shall be free"

[00:03:47] A church is more than just timber and stone

[00:03:47] And freedom is a dark road when you're walking it alone

[00:03:47] But the future is now, and it's time to take a stand

[00:03:47] So the lost bells of freedom can ring out in my land

[00:03:47] And a church is burning

[00:03:47] The flames rise higher

[00:03:47] Like hands that are praying, aglow in the sky

[00:03:47] Like hands that are praying, the fire is saying

[00:03:47] "You can burn down my churches, but I shall be free"
