Lyrics
Give them compassion, eclipse the sun
why are they afraid of you
Gather us together under your almighty wings, hung out to dry
They know not what they do they say if god is love why would he be so cruel, there you stand
Much like the scarecrow, alone in the end, is there for protection
Proud at the altar, much like the scarecrow, jesus on the cross weathered the storm of all mankind s sins
he is the light of the world for all who have the courage to believe
Stretched across the sky, vain before the throne if you are blameless throw the stone
there you stand
Much like the scarecrow, alone in the end Scarecrow, bruise the head and see what tomorrow brings hand to the plow
Give them compassion, the world views jesus as hollow and lifeless however, there you stand
Bruise the head and see what tomorrow brings hand to the plow, proud at the altar, bruise the head and see what tomorrow brings hand to the plow
Why are they afraid of you, there you stand, alone in the end
is there for protection
vain before the throne if you are blameless throw the stone
Stretched across the sky, alone in the end Scarecrow, is there for protection
he is the light of the world for all who have the courage to believe
Scarecrow all alone scarecrow bring your children home, why are they afraid of you
Why are they afraid of you, arms out and wide like forbidden fruit to the squinting eyes Scarecrow, jesus on the cross weathered the storm of all mankind s sins
He is the light of the world for all who have the courage to believe, scarecrow all alone scarecrow bring your children home
Why are they afraid of you, stretched across the sky
Bruise the head and see what tomorrow brings hand to the plow, alone in the end, gather us together under your almighty wings
there you stand
Much like the scarecrow, is there for protection, give them compassion
Eclipse the sun, bruise the head and see what tomorrow brings hand to the plow, alone in the end
proud at the altar
they know not what they do they say if god is love why would he be so cruel
He is the light of the world for all who have the courage to believe, arms out and wide like forbidden fruit to the squinting eyes
Betrayed by a friend, much like the scarecrow
Proud at the altar, proud at the altar Bride, eclipse the sun
Scarecrow all alone scarecrow bring your children home, he stood alone as a gift of love to the world
proud at the altar
The world views jesus as hollow and lifeless however, stretched across the sky
the world views jesus as hollow and lifeless however
gather us together under your almighty wings
Give them compassion, why are they afraid of you Scarecrow, much like the scarecrow
Jesus on the cross weathered the storm of all mankind s sins, give them compassion Scarecrow, vain before the throne if you are blameless throw the stone
Hung out to dry, they know not what they do they say if god is love why would he be so cruel
Jesus on the cross weathered the storm of all mankind s sins, is there for protection
Gather us together under your almighty wings, alone in the end Scarecrow, he stood alone as a gift of love to the world
Jesus on the cross weathered the storm of all mankind s sins, much like the scarecrow Bride, bruise the head and see what tomorrow brings hand to the plow
they know not what they do they say if god is love why would he be so cruel
Betrayed by a friend, bruise the head and see what tomorrow brings hand to the plow Bride, arms out and wide like forbidden fruit to the squinting eyes
Jesus on the cross weathered the storm of all mankind s sins, bruise the head and see what tomorrow brings hand to the plow
Alone in the end, hung out to dry, proud at the altar
is there for protection
proud at the altar
