[Verse 1]
Deep in the heart of Nazareth
A nowhere town of lowliness
The light of life, the light of them
Deep in the heart of Nazareth
I never would have chosen this
The hand of God is hiddenness
Your mother held and witnessed it

[Chorus]
The light still bends when we say yes
(The light still bends, the light still bends)
Light my heart so I won't say less
(Light my heart, light my heart)

[Verse 2]
I've tried to pray, but it's been hard
Found some words, but I lost my heart
Can You hear mе from where You are?
Or is Nazarеth just way too far?
Why don't the bombs obey You
Like the storms of Galilee do?

[Chorus]
The light still bends when we say yes
(The light still bends, the light still bends)
Light my heart so I won't say less
(Light my heart, light my heart)
[Post-Chorus]
Quiet my heart with the rhythms of Your breath
Quiet my restlessness
The light still bends when we say yes
(Light my heart, light my heart)

[Verse 3]
I cannot face the mystery
I cannot change the history
But I name the love behind everything
When I praise the one from Nazareth
My God, my heart is Nazareth
Come seek me in the lies I've lived
Be true, be kind, be still, be with me

[Outro]
In the heart of Nazareth
Deep in the heart of Nazareth
Deep in the heart of Nazareth
