Well, I met the seventh son
Who came for everyone
The day he heard the lighting in the field
I heard him clear his throat
The fork within the road
That night the Tallahatchie took the wheel
[Pre-Hook:]
I've been throwing knives
To see just where they land
Now my world is in your hands
[Hook:]
Send in the congregation
Open your eyes, step in the light
A jukebox generation
Just as you were
[Verse 2:]
The voice upon the stage
Is the heart inside a cage
And they're singing like a bluebird in the round
There's mystery in this word
And ghosts within these woods
And ghosts within these roots
[Pre-Hook:]
That are tangled deep beneath this southern ground
I've been going through life
Making foolish plans
Now my world is in your hands
[Hook:]
Send in the congregation
Open your eyes, step in the light
A jukebox generation
Just as you were
[Bridge:]
And you need blind faith
No false hope, no false hope
Do you have blind faith?
No false hope, no false hope
Where is your blind faith?
No false hope, no false hope
Open your eyes, open your eyes
Step into the light
Open your eyes, step into the light
[Outro:]
The sound becomes congregation
A congregation, a congregation, yeah
And they're singing like a bluebird in the round
[Verse:] Well, I met the seventh son Who came for everyone The day he heard the lighting in the field I heard him clear his throat The fork within the road That night the Tallahatchie took the wheel [Pre-Hook:] I've been throwing knives To see just where they land Now my world is in your hands [Hook:] Send in the congregation Open your eyes, step in the light A jukebox generation Just as you were [Verse 2:] The voice upon the stage Is the heart inside a cage And they're singing like a bluebird in the round There's mystery in this word And ghosts within these woods And ghosts within these roots [Pre-Hook:] That are tangled deep beneath this southern ground I've been going through life Making foolish plans Now my world is in your hands [Hook:] Send in the congregation Open your eyes, step in the light A jukebox generation Just as you were [Bridge:] And you need blind faith No false hope, no false hope Do you have blind faith?
