Tears I shed The Blood

By Jacqueline Amos

I give to thee love, I give to thee warmth, I give to thee honor, I give to thee life, I give to thee the Universe, I give to thee creations, I give to I, am you, as I, Oh thou the passion, I give to thee thy son, I play thy trumpets, I give to thee heaven, I sing to thee Hallelujah.

 I sing to thee Hallelujah, Tears I shed the blood, Legions that sit upon my feet, Blood oh thou, have filled my palm, Oh glory to thee, I give to you my son. The silence of the lamb, Has feel my children's hand, Tears I shed the blood. Screams in unison, Let my children go, Climbing the mountains, Valleys of love, Subsiding with forgiveness, Show me thy hands, Show me thy feet, Show me thy eyes, The gift of love.
