| Son, are you weary with the troubles in life?
|
| You take your heartache with a glass of wine?
|
| Are you haunted by the ghost you know?
|
| Pay 'em off with kindness, the debt you owe
|
| Father are you tired? |
| Full of despair?
|
| Fish out of water, a-gaspin' for air?
|
| At the mercy of your troubled soul?
|
| Prop up a ladder, a-pay your toll
|
| This is my gospel, this is my truth
|
| Soul keeps wadin' in the fountain of youth
|
| You should listen to the good news
|
| This is my gospel, this is my truth
|
| Wealth of the world has been compressed
|
| With hard times for the rest
|
| We’re survivors of blood and lead
|
| Ain’t got no answers, ask Him instead
|
| This is my gospel, this is my truth
|
| Soul keeps wadin' in the fountain of youth
|
| You should listen to the good news
|
| This is my gospel, this is my truth
|
| Mama, come and join me in the tower
|
| Where the king and queens hold the power
|
| Break out the dresses, I’ll wear a suit
|
| Lord, just tell me what I should do
|
| This is my gospel, this is my truth
|
| Soul keeps wadin' in the fountain of youth
|
| You should listen to the good news
|
| This is my gospel, this is my truth
|
| Oh this is my gospel and this is my truth |
