Now she was barely 13 and had a heart of Gold
Mama told her don’t you let it go, no don’t you let it go
And what she thought was love got in the way
Soon as she heard him say that She was beautiful
And he told her he was here to stay
And he’d take her away to some place Beautiful
Forever and ever and ever
And he planned to take her far away from home
Soon as she stepped into his car, they’d never see her again
Jesus, My Soul is bleeding
My body's shouting
I need to see your hands & feet
Oh oh, Jesus
My tears are empty
This heart is weary
I need to see, I just can't see your hands & feet
They locked her up (they locked her up)
But she’s not alone (she’s not alone)
She’s with these other women but their minds are gone
Subject to the evil that men want to dream up
Wickedness inside their hearts as they scheme up
So they silence her (they silence her)
But they ain’t silence me (they ain’t silence me)
And they ain’t silence you (they ain’t silence you)
And together we could set them free (we could set them free)
Cause the word says do right
Defend the oppressed and the fatherless, and Seek justice
If you say you love God
But won’t help those in need then you are just a Buster
That’s the truth, I ain’t gone lie, butter it up, ain’t even gone try
Sit and complain na that’s a waste of time
Cause every single day that girl gone cry
So when she prays at night (at night)
That somebody would save her life (her life)
She’s praying’ for me and you
We the hands and feet of Christ - Wake up
Church!
Jesus, My Soul is bleeding
My body's shouting
I need to see your hands & feet
Oh oh, Jesus
My tears are empty
This heart is weary
I need to see, I just can't see your hands & feet
