when you were disappeared, a part of me went too
the consequence of my silence was mostly felt by you
revealed to poor and simple, hidden from those so high above
the only violence that can set us straight, the violence of love

(chorus)
no ambition for power
therein lies our freedom
no man is named our enemy
therein lies our freedom
the violence of Christ is our victory

somewhere in the tortures
God takes the victims place
one all will be told the names, the times, the place
i've lost my taste for vengence, though it surely comes for some
i hope now in conversion and the kingdom that will come

(chorus)

selfishness falls to the violence of love
vengence falls to the violence of love
hatred falls to the violence of love
every knee will fall before the violence of love
