Franklin, Kirk - When Lyrics
Raindrops make sounds, the earth quakes and moans they
Both sing how long till the wedding day
Stars robed in white
Decorate the sky
While the fragile bride cries, "take me away"
Who can explain
These storms and these waves that
Echo birth pains please hear what they say
Mountains and trees every living thing
Shouts hurry back please and do not delay
[Chorus:]
When will you come for your daughters and sons
We are homesick we try, but we don't belong
Even if that day's a million light years away
When, when, when, when?
Creation speaks the winds through the leaves
It begs to be free no curses remain
Famine, disease, your people are weak
Help us to believe it could be any day
Great are the scars (great are the scars)
After each war (after each war)
Look close you'll see defeat on our face
Can't hear a sound
Your silence is loud
Come close to us now, you feel far away
[Chorus]
When, when
A million hearts tonight are asking
When, when
You heard it before
We won't stop asking
But who am I
Even to try to understand ways much greater than mine
[Chorus]
When, when, when, when
When, when, when, when

When will you come for your daughters and sons
We are homesick we try, but we don't belong
Even if that day's a million light years away
Each day will begin with the same question
When, when, when, when?
Creation speaks the winds through the leaves
It begs to be free no curses remain
Famine, disease, your people are weak
Help us to believe it could be any day
Great are the scars (great are the scars)
After each war (after each war)

Uma das músicas mais lindas que já ouvi 💙🎶
We can't stop asking....when❤
this is my favorite song from "Losing My Religion"
I have the full cd and I gave it a non- sweeting Reception..... Then i heard the selection pray for me...( from the prayer to the end) and I was blown away . Kirk Franklin is the legend of re-used gospel.
This song is so serene.
The accapella group TEN. They were on that accapella show The Sing Off.
Simply beautiful. sounds like Lalah was about to take it to another level. I bet that studio was on fire. Kim can start a praise party .
sing y'all
Breath taking! Glory!!!
Astounding.
Kim. Lalah. Heaven send.
Kim + Lalah is a Heaven send.
Kim + Lalah is a Heaven send.
Kim + Lalah is a Heaven send.
this song is so spirit filled ,its just so beautiful,just makes you want to fall on your face and lay at Gods feet
who is singing the background harmonies?
MrAhamp21 , I believe that's Take 6, holding up the BGV's. 🙌
Actually that's the Group TEN from the Sing-Off Season 4. I had the pleasure of producing the vocals. I was the dark black guy in TEN. I did all of their arrangements for the show.
It gets no better Than Lalah Hathaway and Kim Burrell. This is true music that speaks to the heart!!
This just shows the mystical spirit-filled mind of Kirk Franklin is still yet to be comprehensively explored. With this we've only scratched the surface; that's the beauty of it. I really think this is his best work so far. What a personal inspiration.
V.J. Thorpe , couldn't agree more!! Kirk's evolution as an artist is one I've always admired. Glad to know God is always lending His ear to Kirk's pen, allowing him to write songs like this. 🙌🏿💥
I simply love this song!!
Muito massa!
I think I have listened to this song about 30 times back to back....I love it!!!
+Nicole LaVawn I thought I was the only one. This song is so beautiful
+Nicole LaVawn you are not alone sister,its like one of those song you wish was a never ending medley
Nicole LaVawn me to I luv it
My favorite song! So beautiful and always fills my eyes with tears.
I simply LOVE this song. The lyrics, the Melody, The Majestic Voices of Lalah Hathaway & Kim Burrell, OMGoodness. Thank You Kirk for sharing this poetry with us. My soul is blessed every time I listen...Ah, Heavenly.
Anita Jones Hallelujah
