Bury the Workman
by Unspoken

Album: The World Is Waking

Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh (x2)

Steven was a deacon
In Jerusalem
They dragged him out those city gates
To try and quiet him
When Steven preached those Pharisees
Started throwin' stones
Before he died he raised his eyes, and saw
Jesus on the throne

Chorus:
You can bury the workmen
But the work will go on
You can silence the voices
But you can't stop the song
When the Spirit's moving
His Will will be done
You can bury the workmen
But the work will go on

James was sent to Heaven
At the edge of Herod's sword
And Peter, he was crucified
Like his beloved Lord
The Roman Colosseum,
The lions and the fires,
The gates of Hell did not prevail
They fanned those flames higher

Chorus:
You can bury the workmen
But the work will go on
You can silence the voices
But you can't stop the song
When the Spirit's moving
His Will will be done
You can bury the workmen
But the work will go on

And then they lowered Jesus,
They laid him in a grave
They thought that it was over;
That His name would fade away
But Jesus wasn't listening, no
He rose to life again
'Cause God is not persuaded
By the arrogance of men

Chorus:
You can bury the workmen
But the work will go on
You can silence the voices
But you can't stop the song
When the Spirit's moving
His Will will be done
You can bury the workmen
But the work will go on

You can bury the workmen
But the work will go on
You can silence the voices
But you can't stop the song
When the Spirit's moving
His Will will be done
You can bury the workmen
But the work will go on

Yeah, you can bury the workmen
But the work will go on
