The Wicked Messenger

[00:01.05]	music
[00:08.04]	There was a wicked messenger
[00:10.03]	From Eli he did come
[00:13.51]	With a mind that multiplied the smallest matter
[00:20.79]	When questioned who had sent for him
[00:22.64]	He answered with his thumb
[00:26.17]	For his tongue it could not speak, but only flatter
[00:30.36]	music
[00:46.44]	He stayed behind the assembly hall
[00:53.50]	It was there he made his bed
[00:53.88]	Oftentimes he could be seen returning
[00:57.87]	Until one day he just appeared
[01:00.49]	With a note in his hand which read
[01:04.48]	“The soles of my feet, I swear they’re burning”
[01:09.40]	music
[01:22.85]	Oh, the leaves began to fallin’
[01:26.71]	And the seas began to part
[01:30.14]	And the people that confronted him were many
[01:36.03]	And he was told but these few words
[01:38.44]	Which opened up his heart
[01:43.11]	“If ye cannot bring good news, then don’t bring any”
