Song | All I Need (I Did Not Catch Her Name) |
Artist | Caedmon's Call |
Album | Share The Well |
作曲 : Goodgame | |
I did not catch her name | |
I did not catch her tears | |
But they hit me like a train | |
When her story hit my ears | |
Mother of eight sons | |
Father off to war | |
Got no home address | |
Just bricks on a dirt floor | |
And she said, “Jesus is all I need” | |
Tiny plot of land | |
Corn stored up in piles | |
The years it doesn’t rain | |
They just stay hungry for a while | |
With no fatted calf to kill | |
She made a feast of cuy and corn and said | |
Who else knew my name before | |
The day that I was born | |
Jesus is all I need | |
Jesus is all I need | |
And she bragged about her boys | |
And how they’re growing into men | |
And how the learned to praise the Lord | |
Old style Ecuadorian | |
But to buy the new guitar | |
We had to sell the swine | |
See my boys go to school on a foreign angel’s dime | |
This world calls me poor | |
I bore my babies on this floor | |
But He always provides | |
Sure as the sun will rise | |
So I sing Him songs of praise | |
‘Cause I know He keeps me in His gaze | |
Rain fell from the sky | |
We raced back to the van | |
Tears in the eyes | |
Of this poor forgetful man | |
Mother of eight sons | |
She knows the peace of God | |
Lord, help me learn to lean on | |
Thy staff and Thy rod | |
Jesus is all I need | |
Jesus is all I need | |
Jesus is all I need | |
Jesus is all I need |
