Wayne Watson - No Other Gods lyrics

My temple is built of wood and of stone Each space is filled with the things that I own Idols and gods that call me to bow Well, I try to be free but there's no freedom now No freedom now The ones I hold dear, those most precious to me Some days I set them afloat on an indifferent sea And these things in first place, they're worth nothing at all At night in my dreams, graven images call And my gods won't let me sleep And what a man sows that he will reap And I toss and turn at night I've got places to go, I've got battles to fight And my gods won't let me sleep tonight Tonight, tonight Ambitions once good, once noble and pure Now rule with a rod and I cannot endure These bonds I have forged with two willing hands They're not easily torn by the strength of a man And my gods won't let me sleep And what a man sows that he will reap And I toss and I turn at night I've got places to go, I've got battles to fight And my gods won't let me sleep They won't let me sleep tonight, no No other gods before You, no other holy shrines Oh, I want to sleep in peace when I lie down All other voices calling All of the hands that pull me Call and demand allegiance to their crown And my gods won't let me sleep What a man sows that he will reap And I toss and I turn at night I've got places to go, I've got battles to fight And my gods won't let me sleep And what a man sows that he will reap And I toss and I turn at night I've got places to go, I've got battles to fight And my gods, they won't let me sleep Won't let me sleep tonight Let me sleep Let me sleep, tonight Won't let me sleep tonight Please, let me sleep, tonight Please, let me sleep, tonight They won't let me sleep tonight I toss and I turn I toss and I turn They won't let me sleep tonight
