Grandfather clock

Where were you a week ago
When we gathered in the courtyard
Where were you when we sang
And our song shook the ground
Where were you a week ago
When the church bells started swinging
Where were you when they rang
And angels came down

You waste time like a grandfather clock
That's when we start counting setbacks

Where were you a week ago
When the green light started growing
Where were you when it burst
And spread green in the crowd
Where were you a week ago
When the red sign wasn't sinking
Where were you when it cracked
And spread fire about

And if God did part the clouds
Do you think he'd be proud?
