If weve eyes to see, if weve ears to To find it in our and mouths The that saves is near Shed shallow skin, come and live again all you were before, to believe is to begin

If weve eyes to see, if ears to hear To it in our hearts and mouths The that saves is near Shed that shallow skin, come and again all you were before, to believe is to begin
If weve eyes to see, if weve ears to To it in our hearts and mouths The word that is near that shallow skin, come and live again Leave all you were before, to is to begin To is to begin, to believe is to begin To is to begin
