Why everywhere you go, everywhere you turn
Everyone's in pain, (Didn't Jesus say, that it would be this way)
It's easy to see, but it's hard to explain
(Brutality, depravity, immorality, everywhere)
Where do you turn, where do you go
When you believe that you don't belong
(There is a secret place, I know a secret place)
Where you'll be all right when the world will be all wrong
(You can believe, that he can see)
(He'll never leave, you alone)
(There is no depth, there is no highest height)
(Can seperate us, from the love of God in Jesus Christ
Not what has been, or what shall be, can keep the Lord from you
Chorus
Sanctuary * Free my people Lord * Sanctuary * Free my people Lord
Sanctuary * Free my people Lord * Sanctuary * Ain't no moutain high
Sanctuary * Ain't no valley low * Sanctuary * That can stop my God
Sanctuary * Free my people Lord
Deep in my heart, I do believe, someday that we shall all be free
(In a better place, where we'll see His face)
And every hurt, He will finally redeem
(There'll be no suffering)
(For you and me, anymore)
And all of the things that go down in the night
Stuff that ain't right is jus'so we'll know (We will know)
That we all need God and this world's not our home
(Can't you see that you and me
(R jus' visiting in this world)
Chorus
(There is no depth, there is no highest height)
(Can seperate us, from the love of God in Jesus Christ)
Not what has been, or what shall be, can keep the Lord from you
