Lyrics Paul Weller

Paul Weller

All Good Books

Jesus could hear us now

Bending all His words of which He's proud

But the carpenter was only making invitations

Voicing the opinions of others

Sending down a word that travels well

Only as a vessel, as a bell

And the violence you've mistaken

In the words you took to be taken

And the images of hatred

Against all that we're worth

All that we love

All that is true

All we hold dear

Mohammed could see us now

Shaking down the walls but not as prayer

And the power games that play out

And the lies that come within out

And the sacrifice should make out

Against all that we are worth

All that we love

All that is true

All we dream of

All that you give

All for we live

All that we love
