Truer words were never spoken You picked them up when you were young Maybe woven in a story That goes back to where you?re from Truer words were never spoken And for an audience of one But where you?re healed is where you?re broken And God knows your native tongue So build a bridge with what?s behind you The scattered pieces of your past Build it out over the chasm To the promised land at last Start a bridge with what?s behind you And God picks up where you?ve begun ?Cause where you look is where Love finds you And God knows your native tongue Spoken words in Aramaic Sounds I wouldn?t understand In a local ancient dialect For the people of that land No little words can hold a candle To the splendor of the sun That can explain this world of wonder And shine the same on everyone But little words can hold a candle All your own when darkness comes They?re just the size for us to handle And God knows your native tongue
