[Verse 1 - James Arthur]
You don't have to say you're sorry
Or redeem yourself to me, oh
I'm not asking for confessions
You don't even have to speak, no[Pre-Chorus - James Arthur]
I need you to feel that you're more than enough
I already know you're deserving of love
There's not a question that you are the one that I need
[Chorus - James Arthur]
These are my words
This is my voice
That is my sermon
Give me your heart
Give me your pain
Give me your burden
Coz I can take anything that you can give
Forgiving everything that you did
These are my words
This is my voice
That is my sermon
My sermon, yeah, my sermon, yeah
My sermon, yeah, my sermon, yeah[Verse 2 - James Arthur]
Oh, time to turn this wine to water, yeah
Time to turn this gold to lead, oh
Time to stop taking this for granted, oh
Gotta keep my family fed, for life[Pre-Chorus - James Arthur]
I need you to feel that you're more than enough
I already know you're deserving of love
There's not a question that you are the one I need[Chorus - James Arthur]
These are my words
This is my voice
That is my sermon
Give me your heart
Give me your pain
Give me your burden
Coz I can take anything that you can give
Forgiving everything that you did
These are my words
This is my voice
That is my sermon
My sermon, yeah, my sermon, yeah
My sermon, yeah, my sermon, yeah[Verse 3 - Shotty Horroh]
I don't know nothing about the service the clergy do in the churches
I never read the book though I knew the pages were turning
I tried to sing the hymns but I couldn't think of the verses
Tried to confess my sins, but I didn't know how to word it
But this is my sermon first [?], I'm emotionally drained
Self-medicating hoping I can cope with the pain
I need a face coz that'll fix whatever's broke in my brain
Who am I kidding, no I'm going insane
I wrote some quotes on this page, just trying to reach you and I hope you relate
I'll probably just throw them away
Coz I don't know what to say
I feel weak but I'm supposed to be brave
I seem free but I'm enclosed in a cage
Though I continue to partner over the plastic
And I coulda done it better
Do I whimper from the future, and buckle under the pressure?
Or do I step to the plate, and go take the chance with my life
Come face to face with the darkness so I can stand in the light like[Bridge - James Arthur]
When I feel your love upon me
I know that I am truly blessed
Sometimes you've gotta face the darkness
To step into the light again[Chorus + Outro]
These are my words
My voice
That is my sermon
Give me your heart
Give me your pain
Give me your burden
Coz I can take anything that you can give
Forgiving everything that you did
These are my words
This is my voice
That is my sermon
My sermon, yeah yeah yeah, my sermon, yeah yeah yeah
My sermon, yeah yeah yeah, my sermon, yeah yeah yeah
My sermon, yeah yeah yeah, my sermon, yeah yeah yeah
My sermon, yeah yeah yeah, my sermon, yeah yeah yeah
That is my sermon
