about

From the album Stop This Flight. (CD bonus track)

lyrics

If a man turns his back on the faith of his youth
To pursue earthly ways, he'll lose contentment
When he falls on hard times we should pray for that friend
Help to heal him from bitterness and resentment

What's wrong with this body
This body is ill
It's full of disease and it's dying
This body needs healing
We need to be filled
We've got to stand to our feet and start trying

When your friend slipped away, caught up in their own lies
​And fake rumours, embellished your reputation
Then the Lord will restore the years the locusts have eaten
If you concentrate on your own salvation

What's wrong with this body
This body is ill
It's full of disease and it's dying
This body needs healing
We need to be filled
We've got to stand to our feet and start trying

When the strength of your hope fades and withers within
You must cast all your cares upon heaven
You must die unto self and live unto God
And keep walking the path of the forgiven

What's wrong with this body
This body is ill
It's full of disease and it's dying
This body needs healing
We need to be filled
We've got to stand to our feet and start trying [x2]

Let him pray for that da-nun
Da la ta da da da
And recover from bitterness and resentment
Well what's wrong with this body
This body is ill
It's full of disease and it's dying

What's wrong with this body
This body is ill
It's full of disease and it's dying
This body needs healing
We need to be filled
We got to stand to our feet and start trying
