Bleed to heal

A thousand steps
A thousand stones
A thousand secrets between us
A thousand tears
Two thousand years
A thousand fears to separate us

One body, one offering, one cross to prove
So that thousands upon thousands
Can find endless love

This blood from my hands
And this wound from my side
I am bleeding to heal the wounds in your life
All the broken hope and broken homes and dreams torn apart
The blood that I shed
Is straight from the beat of your broken heart

Love with each step
Love with each breath
Love with each moment
Love the despairing
Love the pain that comes
Love the persecution
Love and be loved

One body, one offering, one cross to prove
So that thousands upon thousands
Will find…

Love and be loved.
