作词 : Bragg | |
God's footballer hears the voices of angels | |
Above the choir at Molineux | |
God's footballer stands on the doorstep | |
And brings the Good News of the Kingdom to come | |
While the crowd sings 'Rock of Ages' | |
The goals bring weekly wages | |
Yet the glory of the sports pages | |
Is but the worship of false idols and tempts him not | |
God's footballer turns on a sixpence | |
And brings the Great crowd to their feet in praise of him | |
God's footballer quotes from the Gospels | |
While knocking on doors in Black Country back streets | |
He scores goals on a Saturday | |
And saves souls on a Sunday | |
For the Lord says these are the Last Days | |
Prepare thyself for the Judgement yet to come | |
His career will be over soon | |
And the rituals of a Saturday afternoon | |
Bid him a reluctant farewell | |
For he knows beyond the sport lies the spiritual |
