Words to Build a Life On

Words to Build a Life On - Mike Crawford and His Secret Siblings

These are words to build a life on

These are your words how can they be mine

These are words to build a life on

These are your words I want them to be mine

Blessed are the poor

Blessed are the weak

Blessed are the ones

Who can barely speak

Blessed in your hurt

Blessed in your pain

Blessed when your teardrops

Are falling down like rain

Blessed when you're broken

Blessed when you're blind

Blessed when you're fragile

When you have lost your mind

Blessed when you're desperate

Blessed when you're scared

Blessed when you're lonely

Blessed when you've failed

Blessed when you're beat up

Blessed when you're bruised

Blessed when you're tore down

Blessed when you're used

These are words to build a life on

These are your words how can they be mine

These are words to build a life on

These are your words I want them to be mine

Blessed when you're heartbroke

Blessed when you're fired

Blessed when you're choked up

Blessed when you're tired

Blessed when the plans

That you so carefully laid

End up in the junkyard

With all the trash you made

Blessed when you feel like

Giving up the ghost

Blessed when your loved ones

Are the ones who hurt you most

Blessed when you lose your

Own identity

Then blessed when you find it

And it has been redeemed

Blessed when you see what

Your friends can never be

Blessed with your eyes closed

Then blessed you see me

These are words to build a life on

These are your words how can they be mine

These are words to build a life on

These are your words I want them to be mine

Blessed when you're hungry

Blessed when you thirst

Cause that's when you will eat of

The bread that matters most

Blessed when you're put down

Because of me you're dissed

Because of me you're kicked out

They take you off their list

You know you're on the mark

You know you've got it right

You are to be my salt

You are to be my light

So bring out all the flavour

In the feast of this my world

And light up all the colours

Let the banners be unfurled

Shout it from the rooftops

Let the trumpets ring

Sing your freaking lungs out

Tell them Jesus Christ is king

Jesus is my saviour

Jesus is divine

Jesus is my answer

Jesus is my life

My life

My life

My life

My life

My life

My life

My life

My life

My life

My life

My life

My life

These are words to build a life on

These are your words how can they be mine

These are words to build a life on

These are your words I want them to be mine

Give us ears that we may hear them

Voice that we may sing them

Life that we may live them

Hope that we may give them

Hearts that we can feel them

Eyes that we can see them

Thoughts that we may think them

Tongues that we may speak your words

Your words

These are your words

I want them to be mine

Be mine

Be mine

These are your words

I want them to be mine

Blessed are the poor

Blessed are the weak

Blessed are the ones

Who can barely speak

Blessed in your hurt

Blessed in your pain

Blessed when your teardrops

Are falling down like rain
