| Lyrics: |
| There's a house on a hill and it hasn't Been lived in for a long long time. And the windows are all broken, And the paint has lost its shine. And there's nothing ever heard there, For there's nothing ever said. For the life of the house left a long time ago And the heart of the house is dead. O House of the Lord, can't you feel it How our heart is growing cold For when the Spirit comes He quickens But when the Spirit leaves, life goes. There's a room at the top and the door Has been locked and it will never open up For no matter who will knock there, Well it always stays tight shut And there's no-one ever answered, So now there's no-one ever goes For the room in the house shut a long time ago And the mind of the house is closed. There's a room in the house where the fire Used to burn and the children used to play And the family would gather, To hear the words the Father would say But now the room is cold and empty, And the embers glow faint red For the fire of the house failed a long time ago And the heart of the house is dead. |
