Words
What a privilege it is to speak
A Divine responsibility
Oh the words weigh heavy on me
And we throw them around so carelessly
There's so much power in little words
We let them out and then we watch them burn
'Til the ashes fall and we come to find
All the mess that they left behind
They're wildfires in our homes
But they can sooth a weary soul
They're so difficult to control
But they do more than we'll ever know
There's so much power in little words
We let them out and then we watch them burn
'Til the ashes fall and we come to find
All the mess that they left behind
It's like tossing pebbles in a pond
The stone sinks down but the ripples run
To us it seems like our words are gone
But it sure don't mean they can't linger on
There's so much power in little words
We let them out and then we watch them burn
'Til the ashes fall and we come to find
All the mess that they left behind
A Divine responsibility
Oh the words weigh heavy on me
And we throw them around so carelessly
There's so much power in little words
We let them out and then we watch them burn
'Til the ashes fall and we come to find
All the mess that they left behind
They're wildfires in our homes
But they can sooth a weary soul
They're so difficult to control
But they do more than we'll ever know
There's so much power in little words
We let them out and then we watch them burn
'Til the ashes fall and we come to find
All the mess that they left behind
It's like tossing pebbles in a pond
The stone sinks down but the ripples run
To us it seems like our words are gone
But it sure don't mean they can't linger on
There's so much power in little words
We let them out and then we watch them burn
'Til the ashes fall and we come to find
All the mess that they left behind
