Written by David Crowder and Jack Parker ©2009 worshiptogether.com Songs / sixsteps Music (admin. by EMI CMG Publishing) (ASCAP) Oh, happiness, there’s grace Enough for us and the whole human race Oh, happiness, there’s grace Enough for us and the whole human race Friend or foe Stranger or kin All who come Begin again Hard or frail Rich or poor All in need Need fear no more Such a thing to give away All regrets Let go forget There’s something that Mends all of it Such a thing to give away Sound the church bells let 'em ring Let 'em ring for everything can be redeemed We can be redeemed, oh all of us About
From Church Music magazine 'The DC*B was started at a church, and continues to play at said church as much as possible. One of the benefits of doing this, outside of the normal benefits that go along with being a part of a community, experiencing faith together and figuring out what it looks like to live in each other’s lives, is that whenever the band needs a whole bunch of people to come up to the studio and sing a big joyful part for a song there is a ready and willing group of friends to help them make that happen. And they sure do sound sweet. Also, those church bells are right outside Crowder’s back door ringing early on a foggy Texas morn. The real question that arises though: is this a sound theological statement put forth in the chorus.' |
