#MartynJoseph - the song he yearned to us in the Big Top #GreenbeltFestival 2014

Big Top Greenbelt 2014
This was the last song
Martyn Joseph gave to us
Midnight - the last night
as the rain washed and heaved
against the tent.
We were all quiet
hanging on every word
every note
Beautiful.






Lyrics to 
Kiss The World Beautiful


I want to kiss the world beautiful

I want to kiss the world fine

Shoulder to shoulder, cheek to cheek

That don't sound much like a crime

I want to kiss the world beautiful

I have no name for this desire

I believe in light, but don't know what to write

With the darkness drawing near

I want to kiss the world beautiful

Lay down this life I think I would

Give up my shoes and all of my views

Don't know why just think I should

I want to kiss the world beautiful

Under the weight of all this earth

Sometimes it takes someone else's life

To make us see what we are worth


I want to kiss the world beautiful

Dream but never fall asleep

Go up to God and say, do you have plans today?

Are you walking down my street?

I want to kiss the world beautiful

And not forget from where we came

There are losers and winners, saints and sinners

I hope we all end up the same

I want to kiss the world beautiful

I want to kiss your lips tonight

Sometimes it's just more important to love

Than to always have it right
