Favoured of the Lord

Verse 1

My son, go forth

The Lord is with you

This is my gift

This is the truth

Pre-Chorus

Because you did not murmur

You did not complain

You walked in the stillness

You followed the rain

You stayed in the shadow

You learned when to run

Therefore go, my son

Chorus

And thou shalt be favored of the Lord

And thou shalt be favored of the Lord

Verse 2

My son, be still

The Lord is within

Lay down your arms

This is the end

Pre-Chorus

Because you did not murmur

You did not complain

You walked in the stillness

You followed the rain

You stayed in the shadow

You learned when to run

Therefore go, my son

Chorus

And thou shalt be favored of the Lord

And thou shalt be favored of the Lord

Bridge

Be brave and be honest

Be kind and be true

Be willing to listen

And I'll walk there with you

Pre-Chorus

Because you did not murmur

You did not complain

You walked in the stillness

You followed the rain

You stayed in the shadow

You learned when to run

Therefore go, my son

Chorus

And thou shalt be favored of the Lord

And thou shalt be favored of the Lord

Outro

Be brave and be honest

Be kind and be true

Be willing to listen
