The Lamb's Book of Life |
| Out of Ireland I have come |
| Great hatred and little room |
| Maimed us at the start |
| And now home just breaks my heart |
| To America I have come |
| I hope to bring your preacher man |
| Home to show my people how they can |
| Get their names back in the book of life of the lamb |
| I know that I’ve done many things |
| To give you reason not to listen to me Especially as I have been so angry |
| But if you knew me maybe you would understand me Words can’t express how sorry I am If I ever caused pain to anybody |
| I just hope that you can show compassion |
| And love me enough to just please listen |
| Out of Ireland I did run |
| Great hatred and little room |
| Aimed to break my heart |
| Wreck me up and tear me all apart |
| To America I have come |
| I need to find a good preacherman |
| Who can show me how I can |
| Get my name back in the book of life of the lamb |
| I bring these blessings with me A strong heart full of hope and a feeling |
| That everything in this world would be okay |
| If people just believed enough in God to pray |
| But the world thinks that sounds crazy |
| And that’s the thing that makes me sing so sadly |
| To think that we would leave God so lonely |
| To think that we would mess up our own destiny |
| Out of history we have come |
| With great hatred and little room |
| It aims to break our hearts |
| Wreck us up and tear us all apart |
| But if we listen to the preacher man |
| He can show us how it can be done |
| To live in peace and live as one |
| Get our names back in the book of life of the lamb |
| Out of hopelessness we can come |
| If people just believe it can be done |
| 'Cause every prayer ever prayed is heard |
| Take power in the power of the word |
| Out of history we have come |
| With great hatred and little room |
| It aims to break our hearts |
| Wreck us up and tear us all apart |
| But if we listen to the Rasta man |
| He can show us how it can be done |
| To live in peace and live as one |
| Get our names back in the book of life of the lamb |
| Out of history we have come |
| With great hatred and little room |
| It aims to break our hearts |
| Smash us up and tear us all apart |
| But if we listen to the Rasta woman |
| She can show us how it can be done |
| To live in peace and live as one |
| Get our names back in the book of life of the lamb |
