Song Lyrics

"Seventy Times Seven"

by David Meece
Album: Chronology

This prison has no walls,
This bondage has no chains,
My memories have no mercy,
There's no one left to blame,
Wish I could force back the hands of time and right every wrong,
Grant me just this one last chance, before it's gone,
Gone, gone, gone.

How could I be so blind as to doubt your love'
And how can I go on living without your love'

Seventy times seven,
Will you forgive me for all that I've done'
Seventy times seven,
I'm so afraid of what I've become.

For all the promises laid to waste, for all the seeds unsown,
For all the justice I never faced, I must now atone,
Is there a soul that can't be saved'
Is there a heart that has no hope'
Is there a peace that can still be made' - please say it's so.

How could I be so blind as to doubt your love'
And how can I go on living without your love'

Seventy times seven,
Will you forgive me for all that I've done'
Seventy times seven,
I'm so afraid of what I've become,
Seventy times seven,
Will you forgive all that I've done'
Seventy times seven,
I'm so afraid of what I've become.

And, if should kneel before you, would you lay your hands on me, or turn me away'
And, even if I should tremble, deep in my heart I won't be afraid,
I won't be afraid.

Seventy times seven,
I won't be afraid,
I won't be afraid,
Seventy times seven,
I won't be afraid, no, no.

Seventy times seven,
Will you forgive me for all that I've done'
Seventy times seven,
I'm so afraid of the man I've become,
Seventy times seven,
Will you forgive all that I've done'
Seventy times seven,
Your love can save me from what I've become.

Seventy times seven,
Seventy times seven,
(fade)
