lyrics

There is a great cloud surrounding us.

They conquered kingdoms,
they shut the mouths of lions,
they quenched the power of fire.
They escaped the edge of the sword;
they were made strong.
They received back their dead.

And all of these,
having gained approval,
did not receive what was promised.

They were stoned, they were sawn in two.
They went about in sheep skins, in goat skins,
being destitute, afflicted, ill-treated;
wandering in deserts and mountains and caves
and holes in the ground.

They saw the promises and welcomed them from a distance.
