《For These Times》歌词

[00:00:10] In these times in which we live

[00:00:13] Where the worst of what we live

[00:00:16] Is laid out for all the world on the front page

[00:00:22] And the sound of someone's heartbreak

[00:00:25] Is a soundbite at the news break

[00:00:28] With a close shot of the tears rollin' down their face

[00:00:33] Blessed be the child who turns a loving eye

[00:00:39] And stops to pray

[00:00:43] For these times in which we live

[00:00:50] In these most uncertain hours

[00:00:53] Where the balance of power

[00:00:56] Is a fight that is fought every day

[00:01:01] And freedom is a word

[00:01:04] Some cry out and some whisper

[00:01:07] And some are just too quick to give away

[00:01:13] Blessed be the one who stands by the one

[00:01:18] On the battle line

[00:01:23] For these times in which we live

[00:01:27] Well give me a heart full of tender mercy

[00:01:38] And arms I will open wide

[00:01:52] For these times in which we live

[00:01:55] Seems like the only answer is

[00:01:58] Givin' up on findin' one at all

[00:02:03] And we hide behind unsure

[00:02:06] Pull the blinds and lock the doors

[00:02:09] And hang a pleasant picture on the wall

[00:02:15] Blessed is the believer who knows love is our redeemer

[00:02:20] And the only breath of life

[00:02:25] For these times in which we live

[00:02:29] Well give me a heart full of tender mercy

[00:02:40] And arms I will open wide

[00:02:51] Yeah give me words full of loving kindness

[00:03:03] And hands ready to hold up a light

[00:03:15] For these times in which we live

[00:03:21] For these times in which we live

[00:03:30] Blessed be the child

[00:03:45] For these times

[00:03:51] Everybody just stop to pray
