Take these shoes
Click clacking down some dead end street
Take these shoes
And make them fit
Take this shirt
Polyester white trash made in nowhere
Take this shirt
And make it clean, clean
Take this soul
Stranded in some skin and bones
Take this soul
And make it sing


Yahweh, Yahweh
Always pain before a child is born
Yahweh, Yahweh
Still I'm waiting for the dawn


Take these hands
Teach them what to carry
Take these hands
Don't make a fist
Take this mouth
So quick to criticize
Take this mouth
Give it a kiss


Yahweh, Yahweh
Always pain before a child is born
Yahweh, Yahweh
Still I'm waiting for the dawn


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


Yahweh, Yahweh
Always pain before a child is born
Yahweh, tell me now
Why the dark before the dawn?


Take this city
A city should be shining on a hill
Take this city
If it be your will
What no man can own, no man can take
Take this heart
Take this heart
Take this heart
And make it break

Give a little bit,
Give a little bit of your love to me
Give a little bit,
I’ll give a little bit of my love to you
There’s so much that we need to share,
So send a smile and show you care


I’ll give a little bit,
I’ll give a little bit of my life for you
So give a little bit,
Give a little bit of your time to me
See the man with the lonely eyes,
Take his hand, you’ll be surprised


Give a little bit,
Give a little bit of your love to me
I’ll give a little bit of my life for you
Now’s the time that we need to share
So find yourself, we’re on our way back home


Going home
Don’t you need to feel at home?

Praise God from whom all blessings flow
Praise Him all creatures here below
Praise Him above, ye heavenly hosts
Praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
Amen.

I know there are times
your dreams turn to dust
you wonder as you cry
why it has to hurt so much
give Me all your sadness
someday you will know the reason why
with a child-like heart
simply put your trust in Me


take My hand and walk where I lead
keep your eyes on Me alone
don't you say why were the old days better
just because you're scared of the unknown
take My hand and walk


don't live in the past
'cause yesterday's gone
wishing memories would last
you're afraid to carry on
you don't know what's comin'
but you know the One who holds tomorrow
I will be your guide
take you through the night
if you keep your eyes on Me


take my hand and walk where I lead
keep your eyes on me alone
don't you say why were the old days better
just because you're scared of the unknown
take My hand and walk where I lead
you will never be alone
faith is to be sure of what you hope for
and the evidence of things unseen
so take My hand and walk


just like a child
holdings daddy's hand
don't let go of Mine
you know you can't stand
on your own


take my hand and walk where I lead
keep your eyes on me alone
don't you say why were the old days better
just because you're scared of the unknown
take My hand and walk where I lead
you will never be alone
faith is to be sure of what you hope for
and the evidence of things unseen
so take My hand and walk


take My hand and walk
