Hammering Heart (Sessions)

[Verse 1: Sleeping At Last]

Horses, they run

And pound the Earth like thunder

The courses they're on

Are crushed in their wake

The force of the sun

Pounds the Earth asunder

The torch of her strength

None can escape

[Chorus: Sleeping At Last]

Like the hammering heart of The Maker

The hammering, hammering heart

The hammering heart of The Maker

The hammering, hammering hеart

[Verse 2: John Mark McMillan]

The ships tow their lines

Bеneath the stars and wonder

At the source of their light

And the blackness between

The moon tows the tides

And pushes the currents under

As the continents in time

Bow to the grinding sea

[Chorus: John Mark McMillan & Sleeping At Last]

Like the hammering heart of the Maker

The hammering, hammering heart

The hammering heart of the Maker

The hammering, hammering heart

[Bridge: John Mark McMillan & Sleeping At Last]

Did I crawl out of the creek bed?

Off the sea floor?

Baby, just to live like this

Do we get everything we hope for?

Are you hopeful?

I feel it when the dopamine kicks

In the grind over time, everybody gets crushed

Everybody gets crushed

[Chorus: John Mark McMillan & Sleeping At Last, Sleeping At Last, John Mark McMillan]

By the hammering heart of the Maker (The hammering, hammering heart)

The hammering, hammering heart

The hammering heart of the Maker (Hammering heart of the Maker)

The hammering, hammering heart (The hammering, hammering heart)
