You bring a life to my bones. And a spring to my step. And a heart that knows what it means. To wait before You. . And a laughter to my house. And a time to sing and shout.
Glory baby, you slipped away. As fast as we could say baby, baby. You were growing, what happened dear. You disappeared on us baby, baby. . Heaven will hold you before we do.
I wish I could crash like the waves. Or turn like the autumn leaves. In effort to praise You. I wish I could smell like the forest. The fragrance lifting a mighty chorus.
Well that gospel train is a' comin'. Comin' right down the track. That gospel train is a' comin'. Comin' right down the track. And when that train leaves the station.
Go, find John. Hiding in the backyard. Crying 'cause his hands hurt. All the thorns. Crying for you to. . Go, find John. Scattered and bewildered. Swallowed by the dirt there.
Go tell it to the mountaintops. That I'm alive. . Go listen to the children cry. And let them know. That dark and night are not their masters. . Between you you'll know all the things.
I feel the need to delve into the mystery. To say some things you might not understand. To swim a league in the sorrow of this place. And be sustained by unseen hands.
I told a lie. could you tell me why?. Heavy sigh. You gotta help me die. Cord of sin. You said you'd cut it. Can you tell me when?. Jesus, kiss. Come and collect me for eternal bliss.
The backdrop of mountains cuts into the sky. They're there to protect or entrap the ones inside. A quiet village is full of tired brows. Thin strips of farmland fight it out with the farmers.
What has become of us. The good times we had. This is an attempt at the conversation. To recall the safe place we made. . I am taking this more serious than anything.
rational mind says it's for faint. my senses tell me it is not. that same old game, the rules have changed. but somehow it remains the same. i play for highscore.
dear watchmen of all of our lives. we've gouged out our own seeing eyes. so that we may remain blind. and give. powers of vision to you. now lower your sight upon all. be masters of all our affairs. but who do you answer.
I'm goin' back south in New Orleans. Get myself some of them cabbage greens. Ooh, them greens, yes, them greens. Oh, them greens, they call them cabbage greens.
Now listen here, brother. You may can't understand. I might would ke'p a woman. But I will never ke'p a man. . So, please get down, big boy. Man, you big enough to walk.
Do you hide you pride - is pride your guide. As you deal with everyday life. Do you seek to win - hold it all in. At problems that cause strife. Are you easily misled - by the things you dread.
Don? t worry about the time. Just watch the sun set. I keep my feelings bottles up. About things that I regret. Oh can it be up to me right now?. Everything? s so lovely in the sky right now.
Tried of living good. The way you think I should. Tried of living right. And I wanna fight tonight. . Time to go out, have some fun. Steal a car, cruise around.
You got a problem and everybody knows it.. Now everybody knows it.. Whatcha gonna do?. You're unbelief is like a cancer.. But man I've got the answer..
It's a long way to the top.. But it's a longer way down.. I know that you don't often drop.. By my side of town.. . Spent a quarter century.. On the wrong side of the tracks..
