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?
