D           C                    D              C
I traveled far and wide through many different times
              D         C
What did you see there?
           D                 C
I saw the saints with their toys
              D         C
What did you see there?
            D            C
I saw all knowledge destroyed
D           C                    D              C   D  C
I traveled far and wide through many different times

I traveled far and wide through prisons of the cross
What did you see there?
The power and glory of sin
What did you see there?
The blood of Christ on their skins
I traveled far and wide through many different times

I traveled far and wide and unknown martyrs died
What did you see there?
I saw the one sided trials
What did you see there?
I saw the tears as they cried

They had tears in their eyes
Tears in their eyes
Tears in their eyes
Tears in their eyes
