I remember

I remember once in judah before you were born
Elizabeth called me “mother of the lord”
John jumped in her womb and by the spirit knew who you were
Now your people who walked with you forgot your word

But i still believe
I still believe
I still believe in you

I remember in the temple after you were born
Bearing pigeons and presenting you to the lord
Seeing simeon hold you in his arms with tears in his eyes
I remember every word that he prophecied

And i still believe
I still believe
I still believe in you

“a sword will pierce your soul”
“a sword will pierce your soul”

But i still believe
I still believe
I still believe in you
