Hosea's Wife - Brooke Fraser[00:00:00]
I just spoke silence with the seeker next to me[00:00:01]
She had a heart with hesitant halting speech[00:00:06]
That turned to mine and asked belligerently[00:00:12]
What do I live for [00:00:17]
I see the scars of searches everywhere I go[00:00:23]
From hearts to wars to literature to radio[00:00:28]
Theres a question like a shame no one will show[00:00:34]
What do I live for [00:00:39]
We are Hoseas wife we are squandering this life[00:00:45]
Using people like ladders and words like knives[00:00:51]
If weve eyes to see if weve ears to hear[00:00:56]
To find it in our hearts and mouths[00:01:00]
The word that saves is near[00:01:03]
Shed that shallow skin they come and live again[00:01:06]
Leave all you were before to believe is to begin[00:01:11]
There is truth in little corners of our lives[00:01:18]
There are hints of it in songs and childrens eyes[00:01:23]
Its familiar like an ancient lullaby[00:01:29]
What do I live for [00:01:35]
We are Hoseas wife we are squandering this life[00:01:40]
Using bodies like money and truth like lies[00:01:46]
If weve eyes to see if weve ears to hear[00:01:50]
To find it in our hearts and mouths[00:01:55]
The word that saves is near[00:01:58]
Shed that shallow skin come and live again[00:02:01]
Leave all you were before to believe is to begin[00:02:07]
We are more than dust[00:02:14]
That means something that means something[00:02:18]
We are more than just[00:02:25]
Blood and emotions inklings and notions[00:02:29]
Atoms on oceans[00:02:35]
We are Hoseas wife we are squandering this life[00:02:41]
Using people like ladders and words like knives[00:02:47]
If weve eyes to see if weve ears to hear[00:02:54]
To find it in our hearts and mouths[00:02:59]
The word that saves is near[00:03:02]
Shed that shallow skin come and live again[00:03:05]
Leave all you were before to believe is to begin[00:03:10]
If weve eyes to see if weve ears to hear[00:03:16]
To find it in our hearts and mouths[00:03:21]
The word that saves is near[00:03:24]
Shed that shallow skin come and live again[00:03:27]
Leave all you were before to believe is to begin[00:03:32]
To believe is to begin to believe is to begin[00:03:40]
To believe is to begin[00:03:51]
