Lyrics:
When I heard you sing,
It felt like a christening
A baptism at the back of the bar
I fell under your spell,
You sang my life so well.
As your voice quivers, with each line you deliver
I hear the orchestra as I stand in awe
I felt so close to the Lord,
I’ve tried my whole life to ignore
But Love, I’m alive
And maybe the Star of Bethnal Green
Could lead us back to Bethlehem
Lord, I have tried
And maybe the Star of Bethnal Green
Could lead us back to Bethlehem
When I heard you sing,
It was a balm for the blistering,
My eyes, all swollen and scarred
Your hands guide mine over the braille
I felt each word without fail
And Love, I’m alive
And maybe the Star of Bethnal Green
Could lead us back to Bethlehem
Lord, I have tried
And maybe the Star of Bethnal Green
Could lead us back to Bethlehem

@AA_Dandelion_Daysمنذ 5 سنواتJust when you thought it wasn't possible to go any better, you guys raise the bar yet again to a different level. Your song writing makes me speechless. id="hidden3" class="buttons"> I thought your Hiding Bottles video was just superb and a brave topic to tackle, as so many people want to ignore it or pretend it doesn't exist, and now this one. Guys like you can help to make issues like this mainstream in such an accessible way, hopefully helping to find a way to educate people so that we can put a stop to the bigotry and cruelty we find a section of humanity inflicting on others. Can I add that musically as a song its right up there for me. Crow & Breaker/Keeper blew me away this has done likewise. ....وسعت29

@SugarsweetHachikoمنذ 5 سنواتI don't usually comment any videos, but this song and the video are so terribly beautiful it almost hurts. Thank you so much for putting a topic so id="hidden4" class="buttons"> sensitive to public attention. You guys are great and i really love your music. ....وسعت21

@Ilselalalaمنذ 5 سنواتMy favourite band… When I think I can’t love you more than I already do, you bring out this beautiful song with this incredible video about a subject on which there is still so much misunderstanding and prejudice. Hopefully this video will contribute to more acceptance and understanding. Thank you Bear's Den!! <3 ....وسعت20

@Randomperson2222221منذ 5 سنواتMy goodness. You have been my favourite band these past few years , I cannot get enough of your music and lyrics. And then you go and release a music video id="hidden8" class="buttons"> as powerful as this. I always get filled with the strangest shock, but happy shock, when I see a favourite artist of mine voicing their support for the LGBTQ community, and you have done it in such a elegant, yet raw and heartbreaking way. Thank you so much. ....وسعت8

@
@jake6132منذ 4 سنواتI dig this song and many others by BD, but this video is nothing novel or brave. We're more accommodating now than we ever have been. So, making a id="hidden11" class="buttons"> video touching on an issue that most people agree with isn't courageous or novel. Sorry, it's just not. This isn't taboo anymore to make public stances like this in music videos (i.e. Brandi Carlile, Sigur Ros, RHCP, etc.). ....وسعت
