|
When I close my eyes, so |
|
I would not see, |
|
My Lord did trouble me. |
|
When I let things stand that should not be, |
|
My Lord did trouble me. |
|
Did trouble me, |
|
With a word or a sign, |
|
With a ring of a bell in the back of my mind. |
|
Did trouble me, |
|
Did stir my soul, |
|
For to make me human, to make me whole. |
|
When I slept too long and |
|
I slept too deep, |
|
Put a worrisome vision into my sleep. |
|
When I held myself away and apart, |
|
And the tears of my brother didn't move my heart. |
|
Did trouble me, |
|
With a word and a sign, |
|
With a ringing of a bell in the back of my mind. |
|
Did trouble me, |
|
Did stir my soul |
|
For to make me human, to make me whole. |
|
And of this |
|
I'm sure, of this |
|
I know:My |
|
Lord will trouble me. |
|
Whatever I do, wherever |
|
I go,My Lord will trouble me. |
|
In the whisper of the wind, in the rhythm of a song |
|
My Lord will trouble me. |
|
To keep me on the path where |
|
I belong,My |
|
Lord will trouble me. |
|
Will trouble me, |
|
With a word or a sign, |
|
With the ringing of a bell in the back of my mind. |
|
Will trouble me, |
|
Will stir my soul, |
|
For to make me human, to make me whole. |
|
To make me human, to make me whole. |
