Time stand still, as we see the picture 
Of a man who takes what is not his 
Leaving in his way a broken woman 
And a man who hates enough to kill 
One by one 
Somehow we come to understand what that means 
And in desperation's tongue 
Pray thy kingdom come, pray thy will be done 

Side by side we watch this picture 
Even as it grows beyond the screen 
Most of us in pain hurting for the victims 
But for some of us its more than just a movie scene 
As one by one 
We become all too aware of what that truly means 
And instead of taking guard we embrace the morning sun 
Let thy will be done 


Thy will be done in me 
Thy will be done indeed 
Thy will be done 
But while we're here waiting 
Oh let it be 
And oh won't you let it begin with me 
Oh lord please let it begin with me 

Time stand still as we get the picture 
Of a man held high upon a hill 
Willing to pay though not convicted 
Willing to pay for crimes not his 
As one by one we all come to understand 
What that really means 
And pray to the son 
Let thy kingdom come, let thy will be done 


Thy will be done in me 
Thy will be done indeed 
Thy will be done 
But while we're here waiting 
Oh, let it be 
Oh, thy will be done in me 
Thy will be done indeed (let it be, let it be, let it be) 
Thy will be done but while we're here waiting 
Oh let it be 
Oh won't you let it begin with me 
Oh won't you let it begin with me 
Oh won't you let it begin with me (Thy will be done) 
Oh won't you let it begin with me (shower down on us a blessin) [x4]
Time stand still
