"Cover Down, Pray Through"

[Cover Down, Break Through]

Well you heard about Pharaoh's army
Trampling through the mud
You heard about the Hebrew children
Redeemed by blood
Same spirit drivin' in ya
That raised Christ from the dead
If you're quick in your mortal body
Then let it under your head.

You got to cover down, cover down, pray through
Cover down, cover down, pray through.

We need that protection
By the armour of the Lord
The sword of God is sharper
Than any double sided sword
He's the hammer of salvation
Blade of righteousness
Genesis to revelation
Repent and confess.

Cover down, cover down, pray through
Cover down, cover down, pray through.

Well, you wake up early in the morning
Turning from side to side
Something giving you a warning
You can run, but you can't hide
Demands are laid upon you
And burdens you can't bear
Sins you can't even remember
Are waiting to meet you there.

Cover down, cover down, pray through
Cover down, cover down, pray through.

You got an image of yourself
You've built by yourself alone
But it will come a-tumbling down
Just like the walls made of stone
You will be separated
From everything you seem to be
You think you'll be liberated, yeah
But the grave won't set you free.

You got to cover down, cover down, pray through
Cover down, cover down, pray through.
(Cover down, cover down, pray through
Cover down, cover down, pray through)
