Yahweh

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Take these shoes Click clacking down some dead end street Take these shoes And make them fit [Verse 2] Take this shirt Polyester white trash made in nowhere Take this shirt And make it clean, clean [Verse 3] Take this soul Stranded in some skin and bones Take this soul And make it sing, sing [Chorus] Yahweh, Yahweh Always pain before a child is born Yahweh, Yahweh Still I'm waiting for the dawn [Verse 4] Take these hands Teach them what to carry Take these hands Don't make a fist, no [Verse 5] Take this mouth So quick to criticize Take this mouth Give it a kiss [Chorus] Yahweh, Yahweh Always pain before a child is born Yahweh, Yahweh Still I'm waiting for the dawn [Bridge] Still waiting for the dawn The sun is coming up The sun is coming up on the ocean This love is like a drop in the ocean This love is like a drop in the ocean Oh [Chorus] Yahweh, Yahweh Always pain before a child is born Yahweh, tell me now Why the dark before the dawn? [Post-Chorus] Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh [Verse 6] Take this city A city should be shining on a hill Take this city If it be your will [Verse 7] What no man can own No man can take Take this heart Take this heart Take this heart And make it break
