Down Here
Words & Music by Shaun Groves

What in this life ain’t passing
Big deals and beggars end in ashes
All go from cradle to casket
Down here

What in this world ain’t busted
Crowns and cathedrals rusted
Is there a thing we can trust in
Down here?

Up there
The prayers of generations split the clouds
The groans of all creation turn to shouts
Up there
The One who has no start and no goodbye
The One who mourns our fall, hears our cry
And comes to live with us and die for us down here

What in my heart ain’t twisted
I’ve kissed for less than thirty pieces
Oh, God, can heaven even reach me
So far down here?

Up there
The prayers of generations split the clouds
The groans of all creation turn to shouts
Up there
The One who has no start and no goodbye
The One who mourns our fall, hears our cry
And comes to live with us and die for us down here

Up there
The One who has no start and no goodbye
The One who mourns our fall, hears our cry

(Emmanuel, God with us
Our king has come to bring salvation
Emmanuel, God with us
Our king has come for us
Our king has come)

Up there
The prayers of generations split the clouds
The groans of all creation turn to shouts
Up there
The One who has no start and no goodbye
The One who mourns our fall, hears our cry
And comes to live with us and die for us and live through us down here
