Lyrics The Seeker - Merle Haggard, The Strangers

The Seeker

I am a seeker a poor simple creature
There is none weaker than I am
I am a seeker and you are a teacher
You are a reacher so reach down
Reach out and lead me guide me and keep me
In the shelter of your care each day
I am a seeker and you are a keeper
You are a leader won’t you show me the way.
I am a vessel that’s empty and useless
I am a bad seed that fell by the way
I am a loser that wants to be a winner
You are my last hope don’t turn me away
I am a seeker a poor simple creature
There is none weaker than I am
I am a seeker and you are a teacher
You are a reacher so reach down.
Reach out and lead me guide me and keep me
In the shelter of your care each day
I am a seeker and you are a keeper
You are a leader won’t you show me the way
Hey you are a mountain from which there flows a fountain
So let its water wash my sins away
Cause I am a seeker and you are a teacher
You are a leader won’t you teach me the way…
