The weight of the world

Lyrics to 'The Weight of the World', by Editors, from their 2nd album, An End Has A Start:


Keep a light on those you love,
They will be there when you die.
Baby there's no need to fear,
Baby there's no need to cry

Every little piece in your life
Will add up to one
Every little piece in your life
Will mean something to someone

You fuse my broken bones
Back together again
Lift the weight of the world
From my shoulders again

Every little piece in your life
Will add up to one
Every little piece in your life
Will mean something to someone

You touch my face,
God whispers in my ear
There are tears in my eyes:
Love replaces...
You touch my face,
God whispers in my ears
There are tears in my eyes:
Love replaces fear

Every little piece in your life
Will add up to one
Every little piece in your life
Will mean something to someone


Not a religious band, but this is so 1 John 4:18..."There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear"...Love replaces fear. This is so true. And I love the idea that God speaks to him through the touch of another person, and through this, love replaces fear.
