Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Hitched a ride to the peaceful side of town

Then, proceeded where thieves were no longer found

Mmm, can't crash now, yeah, I've been waiting for this

Mmm, won't crash now, I found some encouragement

[Verse 2]

'Cause precious declaration reads

Yours is yours, and mine you leave alone, now (Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah)

And precious declaration says

I believe all hope is dead no longer (Ah-ah, ah-ah)

[Verse 3]

New meanings to the words I feed upon

Wake within my veins elements of freedom

Mmm, can't break now, yeah, I've been living for this

Mmm, won't break now, I'm cleansed with hopefulness

[Verse 4]

'Cause precious declaration reads

Yours is yours, and mine you leave alone, now (Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah)

And precious declaration says

I believe all hope is dead no longer (Ah-ah, ah-ah)

[Verse 5]

Once, I jumped through hoops of fire

As high and far as you required

I was blind, but now I see

Salvation has discovered me

[Verse 6]

Mmm

Mmm

[Verse 7]

And precious declaration reads

Yours is yours, and mine you leave alone, now (Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah)

And precious declaration says

I believe all hope is dead no longer (Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah)

[Verse 8]

Precious declaration reads

Yours is yours, and mine you leave alone, now (Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah)

Precious declaration says

I believe all hope is dead no longer (Ah-ah, ah-ah)
