lyrics

I know a step is not a walk
I know a drop is not a sea
But it´s a damn good way to start

If the word is right
If the word is right
If the word is right
If the word is right

And i may know not how to get there
But i sure as hell know where i´ve been
And if there ain´t no road i´ll build me one

If the word is right
If the word is right
If the word is right
If the word is right

And i will bark on your tree
Until the sap comes running down
And as it comes i´ll take it all and i´ll be

Poor in spirit for you
Mourn and meek just for you
Hungry thirsty for you
Pure in heart just for you
Glorified just for you
Persecuted for you
Crucified just for you
Resurrected in you

And many stories have been told
And many tongues have sung your song
But as i open my mouth you´ll hear me out

If the word is right
If the word is right
If the word is right
If the word is right

And this word it will be sorrow
And this word it will be joy
Cuz where i put the word i put the heart

And the heart is right
And the heart is right
And the heart is right
And the heart is right

And i will bark on your tree
Until the sap comes running down
And i will lay at your feet
Until the Jewels fall from your crown

One by one your idols fall
As we watch with morbid eyes
Some go young and some go old
As they go back to their fire
Willy nilly warriors come
But they die befote they´re born
If you wanna cast great shadow
Make your dealings with the sun

Poor in spirit for you
Mourn and meek just for you
Hungry thirsty for you
Pure in heart just for you
Glorified just for you
Persecuted for you
Crucified just for you
Resurrected in you
