Impossible World Lyrics - Exit Strategy Of The Soul - Ron Sexsmith

Lord if you will 

Lend me your ear 

It seems like this old world's beyond repair 

But tell me does it have to be 

Can we summon the will 

Come up with the faith 

There are those who say we haven't got a prayer 

Nor have we the strength to bear 

This impossible world 

Death if you will 

Give me your hand 

For there are some things I'll never understand 

Could someone explain to me 

How many lives 

How many tears must fall 

Before we learn we're going nowhere 

Not unless we learn to share 

This impossible world 

Is that a tear in the eye of the storm 

A hint of fear in the relative calm 

It appears all attempts to feel so safe and warm 

Are all in vain 

When I was a child 

I opened my eyes 

And beheld a world of possibility 

Though now all there seems to be 

Is an impossible world 

Still there's a song that I sing in my heart 

There's a light that I see in the dark 

And a voice that has softly whispered to my soul 

Do not be afraid 

Lord If you will 

Lend me your ear 

It seems like this old world's beyond repair 

Oh tell me does it have to be 

Such an impossible world
