Perla Batalla Lyrics

Holy Roses
(Perla Batalla/David Batteau)

By the Highest overshadowed
By the Highest overcome
                
   In my footsteps you have traveled
   In your footsteps you will run
                
I can feel you kick against me
I can feel you leap inside
Drink my joy and drink my sadness
Drink my pity
Drink my pride
By the Highest overshadowed
By the Highest overcome
                
   In my footsteps you have traveled
   In your footsteps you will run
                
Traveling from Heaven somewhere
You are my own watergirl
Bone of my bones
Flesh of my flesh
You magnify my world
You mystify my world
                
Holy roses for your footsteps
To my doorstep you have come
                
   From my blanket Holy roses
   For your footsteps little one
                

Rose of Sharon sleep within me
In the fields of Ephraim
In the darkness dream of Eden
Through the gates of fire within
Through the gates of fire within
                  


   My days grow sweet and heavy
   As your heart beats anew
   My body is your fortress
   I'm the place God made for you
   I'm the place God made for you
                
By the Highest overshadowed
By the Highest overcome
                
   Holy roses for your footsteps
   From my blanket little one

There is no consolation
There is no victory
There is no consolation
Don't say that you did this to me  

How could I, how could I
How could I be such a fool  
How could you
How could you do this
When I trusted you


There is no consolation
There is no victory
There is no consolation
Don't say that you did this to me
