Walls That Never Should Have Stood Lyrics

They built the walls to keep us out

But love won't be denied

The cracks began with seeds of doubt

And we watched them from outside

Oh they kept their riches locked away

But walls like these can't see the day

Oh walls that never should have stood

Built on pride and misunderstood

We brought them down with holy grace

Walls of stone they lost their place

They stacked their greed up brick by brick

But hearts don't bow to gold

With every step we felt the tick

Of a story yet untold

Oh the walls fell hard but freedom sang

A melody where hope once rang

Some walls are born to crumble down

Some lies won't ever hold their ground

Oh the truth will always find its way

And bring the dawn to a brighter day

Oh walls that never should have stood

They fell and left the world for good

Oh walls that stood on broken wood

You'll never rise again
