Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

Teach me that it all belongs

That everything is sacred

I eat the bread and drink the wine

But help me love my neighbor

Show me how to hold this life

?Cause I don?t want to waste it

No, I don?t want to waste it

 

Oh, heaven is upside down

Oh, it can be here and now

Oh, seeing it all around

That everything is sacred

 

The ordinary shines and glows

Filled with Your intentions

You don't see the lines we draw

Between secular and sacred

Show me how to hold this life

?Cause I don?t want to waste it

No, I don?t want to waste it

 

Life is a gift and the Giver is good
