Life Uncommon



"Life Uncommon"

Don't worry mother,
it'll be all right
And don't worry sister,
say your prayers and sleep tight

It'll be fine
lover of mine
It'll be just fine

Lend your voices only
to sounds of freedom
No longer lend your strength
to that which you wish to be free from
Fill your lives with love and bravery
And you shall lead a life uncommon

I've heard your anguish,
I've heard your hearts cry out
We are tired,
we are weary,
but we aren't worn out

Set down your chains,
until only faith remains
Set down your chains
And lend your voices
only to sounds of freedom

There are plenty of people
who pray for peace
But if praying were enough
it would have come to be

Let your words enslave no one
and the heavens will hush themselves
To hear our voices ring out clear
With sounds of freedom
Sounds of freedom

Come on you unbelievers,
move out of the way
There is a new army coming
and we are armed with faith
To live, we must give
To live
And lend our voices only
to sounds of freedom
No longer lend our strength to that we wish to be free from
Fill your lives with love and bravery
And we shall lead...

Lend our voices only to sounds of freedom
No longer lend our strength
to that which we wish to be free from
Fill your lives with love and bravery
And we shall lead a life uncommon
