Garnett & Beverly: Listen to Our Music

Life Uncommon

(Jewel Kilcher)
2005-12-19
Don't worry, mother, it'll be alright.
And don't worry, sister, say your prayers and sleep tight.
And it'll be fine, lover of mine.
It'll be just fine.

CHORUS:
And 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 'til only faith remains
Set down your chains.

CHORUS

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 unbeliever, move out of the way,
There is a new army coming and we are armed with faith.
To live, we must give.
To live.

CHORUS
