These Are The Words (From "Pope Francis: A Man of His Word") - Patti Smith

Awake everyone, the dawn has come

Life is streaming from the sun

A garden blessed, the bird that sings

Nature gives us everything

Awake everyone, the time has come

To mend, to tend, our common home

To give our thanks, sow our seeds

Extend the hand to those in need

When the soul yearns for love

It comes flowing from above

Mercy, hope, humility

These are the words to live by every day

Walls will crumble, we arise

To work as one, abide, provide

Mercy, hope, humility

These are the words we whisper in our sleep

When in doubt the nights are long

Wear the smile, wear the sun

To comfort us when alone

Holding your heart, love will come

Walls will crumble as we abide

Restore the house, we shall provide

Love, compassion, unity

These are the words to live by every day

Awake everyone, the time has come

Life is streaming from the sun

Mercy, hope, humanity

These are the words

These are the words

These are the words
