He heard you When your eyes were closed and your head held low He kept the promise that he made For the times he had to lay down and die He held you And showed you how to keep hope alive, alive Keep hope alive
And when the caged bird sings And your eyes lay hold of your dreams And your heart burns with the kiss that he's given, you will see, you will see
That it's his love, that carried us It's his love, uh-oh, uh-oh It's his love that carried us through
When the caged bird sings And your eyes lay hold of your dreams And your heart burns with the kiss that he's given, you will see, you will see
That it's his love, that carried us It's his love, uh-oh, oh It's his love that carried us through
