Great Love Is Fragile Thing

Hallelujah, Christ has risen
To raise the down-trodden
Death itself has found its ending
The lynched man breathes again

Rich man, rich man, strive no longer
Bow through the needle's eye
Enter, enter, the land of promise
The peace you cannot sell nor buy

Lay your treasures at the feet of
The child who came for us
Oh, great love is a fragile thing
That raises the dead in us

Wise man, wise man, follow the stars
Drink wisdom at a child’s feet
Children, children, find your power
At your songs, the angels weep

Daughter, daughter, find your beauty
No longer through the eyes of man
Dance with might through rows of bondage
You were loved before the world began

Lay your treasures at the feet of
The child who came for us
Oh, great love is a fragile thing
That raises the dead in us
