DATELINE: Pristina, Kosovo    

Author: Nick      

This song has been my jam while driving through Kosovo, looking at all the U.N. and KFOR transports and armored vehicles everywhere (not to mention powder burned or bombed out buildings which remain a decade after the war ended). Powerful stuff. Live version at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fhq0Busdp2k Banner by Psalters (www.psalters.org) (intro in Farsi saying that "God you are my Beloved and no matter what happens i want nothing more than to stand next to You") broken bodies lie soaking ashen ground empires within and out crushing the refugees no one is left to fight for them but you and me and the One we say we love is with them bleeding red that ground the armies of evil we made are now surrounding and so we run to hide ourselves and leave the bleeding saving ourselves we leave the Saviour of refugees run back to Him run back to those struggling Banner wave high for the lowly wave the suffering Chi Rho stand with your Love of long ago run with Him to fight the shallows we all know Banner You are all the lowly and for those mourning you alone are Home we stand with You as the armies crush Thee run to You as Your Blood covers even these Banner wave high for the lowly wave the suffering Chi Rho stand with your Love of long ago run to those suffering if you Love Him then worship Him there that is where He is found.... He's the Home....for refugees
