THE BODY OF CHRIST

LYRICS

When you're weak and voiceless
When your strength gives way
I will lift your song and sing what you can't say
When you feel uncertain
When your heart's afraid
I will carry you and pray when you can't pray

I will be the hands and feet
of the Lord for you

For we are the body
We are the body
The body of Christ

When I'm weak and voiceless
When my strength gives way
Will you lift my song and sing what I can't say?
When I feel uncertain
When my heart's afraid
Will you carry me and pray when I can't pray?

Will you be the hands and feet
of the Lord for me?

For we are the body
We are the body
We are the body of Christ

When we're weak and voiceless
When our strength gives way
He will lift our song and sing what we can't say
When we feel uncertain
When our heart's afraid
He will carry us and pray when we can't pray

He will be the strength we need
He will carry us

For we are the body
We are the body
The body of Christ

Oh we are His body
We are His body
We are His body
We are His body
The body of Christ

  • “The Body of Christ” is a song about the mercy of God expressed through His people. Scripture teaches that the Church is not merely a gathering of individuals, but one body with many members. We belong to Christ, and because we belong to Christ, we also belong to one another.
