Upside Down

Bring mercy, depend on grace
Take a light into the darkest place
Shed a tear with those who weep
Why don’t you act where talk is cheap
Write off the debt of those that owe you
Don’t get back at those who hurt you
Show them love not retribution
Start a revolution

Oh oh we’ll turn the world upside down
Oh oh we’ll turn the world upside down
We’ll do what it won’t expect
These things you can never ever regret

Defend the rights of those to come
Raise your voice for those with none
Lift up the poor and respect the weak
You could even turn the other cheek
To the man who steals from you
Give something better that belongs to you
Teach your enemy real success
Pray and grant forgiveness

Don’t get caught in short term things
Treasure loyalty and all it brings
Walk the mile that you’re asked to do
Keep on walking til you’ve finished two
Don’t live your life in isolation
Give up the time that you’ve been wastin’
Stand up for justice in every queue
And let the people in front of you
