[Verse 1]
Breathe, what defines and describes your worth
Climb, measure height by the wind's discern
Wait, for the tides of change will come
And reach, for the sight of being undone
[Chorus]
Oh no, oh no, the beauty You hold
So close, so close, I'm recognizing
Culture unfold and honor restored
Oh Lord, oh Lord, I'm recognizing
(Gold, gold, gold, gold)
(Gold, gold, gold, gold)
(Gold, gold, gold, gold)
(Gold, gold, gold, gold)
[Verse 2]
Stop, when the waves take your name beneath
And move, with the grace of your value redeemed
[Chorus]
Oh no, oh no, the beauty You hold
So close, so close, I'm recognizing
Culture unfold and honor restored
Oh Lord, oh Lord, I'm recognizing
(Gold, gold, gold, gold)
(Gold, gold, gold, gold)
(Gold, gold, gold, gold)
(Gold, gold, gold, gold)
[Bridge]
Something's got to give, love
When you've had enough, oh no
Something's got to give
Something's got to give, love
[Chorus 2]
Wrapped up in pure gold, tenfold
Oh Lord, I know it's the beauty to hold
Wrapped up in pure gold, tenfold
Oh Lord, I know, now I'm recognizing
(Gold, gold, gold, gold)
(Gold, gold, gold, gold)
(Gold, gold, gold, gold)
(Gold, gold, gold, gold)
[Chorus]
Oh no, oh no, a beauty to hold
So close, so close, I'm recognizing
Culture unfold and honor restored
Oh Lord, oh Lord, I'm recognizing
