Yahweh (Remastered 2024)

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
