Words and music by Ben Harper Oh — I sat down upon the church house steps I sat down upon the church house steps I sat down upon the church house Down upon the church house steps With all my hopes and dreams All of my regrets Oh — I sat down upon the church house steps I sat down upon the church house steps I sat down I sat down upon the church house steps With all I have lost And with all I have been blessed Oh — I sat down Oh — I sat down Oh — I sat down upon I sat down upon the church house steps I reached to the sky As I hung my head and wept Oh — I wept Oh — I sat down Oh — I sat down I sat down Oh — I sat down If these wings should fail me (Won't you) meet me with another pair
