Mmmmm, yeah
Blessed that be the ties that bind
Woah
Blessed that be the ties that bind
Woah
Blessed that be the ties that bind
[Verse 1]
Do you ever take the time to concentrate your mind and listen (Ooh yeah)
Listen to the music to your inner soul
To marvel at the beauty that nature holds (Spread your wings to freedom)
Erasing from your mind all the doubts
You see (Soaring like an eagle)
Do you picture it? Your loving heart will guide you, you, you
[Chorus]
Blessed (Blеssed), blessed (Oh, yеah)
Oh-oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
My soul feels good about the ties that bind
Me and you, and all mankind, together
My soul feels good about the ties that bind
Me and you, and all mankind, together, woah
Blessed that be the ties that bind, woah-woah, oooh
[Verse 2]
Glorify your love, place it far above all others, oooh yeah
Take it to the power of your mothers love
Precious memories (Gather little children)
Turn your face in view to the rising sun (Flame of love)
Is a gift to you
Burning to beat of your soul, alright
[Chorus]
Blessed (Blessed), blessed (Oh, yeah yeah yeah yeah)
Blessed, blessed, blessed, blessed (Ooh, ooooh)
Blessed, blessed, blessed, blessed (Ooh, ooooh)
My soul feels good about the ties that bind
Me and you, and all mankind, together
