Chords of a Man - Without a Sound Lyrics

Gather all sojourners to be found
Quarry the great stones from the ground
Hew till the edges rough are round
Fit to be built without a sound

Hammers can break with just a word
Ointments will slake until they're stirred
The path that we take, though not preferred
Leads to a place where no sound is heard

Neither hammer nor ax nor iron tool
Was heard in the house while being built
He'll lay us all down one by one
And without a sound we shall be built

Stones that the natural form retain
Can at the most be piled in vain
Those that allow the cutting pain
Without a sound His building gain

Have you not felt you're all alone
The lot you've been dealt could not be known
Foundations are laid with costly stones
Without a sound He builds His home

Neither hammer nor ax nor iron tool
Was heard in the house while being built
He'll lay us all down one by one
And without a sound we shall be built

And without a sound we shall be built
