lyrics

Is it a story?
Is it something more than myth?
What if it happened?
What if it didn't?

Is there truth there
In the water?
Did he ever turn it to wine?

I don't know
If it's a story
But it's teachin' me this time

This time
This time
It's teachin' me this time

This time
This time
It's teachin' me this time

Is it a story
That he came down from the sky?
This beautiful baby
The apple of his mother's eye

And is there truth in
Resurrection?
Did he make a blind man see?

I don't know
If it's a story
But it's doin' work on me

On me
On me
It's doin' work on me

On me
On me
It's doin' work on me

Are these empty words on our Christmas cards?
Do we give them worth when we search for stars?
Does it matter how many wise men came?
If we learn to love, does it need a name?

Are these empty words on our Christmas cards?
Do we give them worth when we search for stars?
Does it matter how many wise men came?
If we learn to love, does it need a name?

Is it a story?
Is it something more than myth?
What if it happened?
What if it didn't?

Is there truth in
Loaves and fishes?
There's a lesson all the same

From a baby's cry
To the day you die
You can give yourself away

Away
Away
You can give yourself away

Away
Away
You can give yourself away
