Story Behind The Song
Benjamin Dunn and his wife Stephanie have been traveling as well as touring around the world for years visiting the people of the garbage dumps. Many of his songs came directly from singing love songs to the poor people of these forsaken places in the world. Loving the poor has been his source of inspiration and creativity for melodies and song writing.

Lyrics
Strike the strings
On my heart
And I'll sing your melodies
A hymn of love
Songs of blood
Spilling from my mouth
All of my praises
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
Belong to you
Whoa
Oh oh
Whoa
Oh oh
Pluck my heart
Like a harp
And sing salvation songs
Your praises fill the air I breathe
With the sweetest melodies
And all of my praises
Whoa-oh-oh
Belong to you
Whoa
Oh oh
Whoa
Oh Oh
