[Verse 1]
Another spirit woken by your inspiration
Drags me to a sense of adoration
Full of strength, you're out of place
Learning the unforced rhythm of grace
We dance

[Verse 2]
A little brother lost for life
Still at peace within
Time has passed, memories must
Break you apart, but no

[Chorus]
You're full of strength
And you're out of place
Learning the unforced rhythm of grace
We dance, we dance

[Verse 3]
Glory, your glory, I am falling down
I can't, I can't, I can't tell, no
Your glory, your glory, your glory

[Chorus]
Full of strength, you're out of place
Learning the unforced rhythm of grace
We dance
We dance
Loving, oh, you're so strong and
You're out of place
Oh, learning the unforced rhythm of grace
We dance, we dance
Oh, learning your grace
We dance
