Listen Through Me |
See these ragged shoes? |
The soles have worn straight through, while I’ve proclaimed |
The king who sang the blues. |
If you’ve got better news then make it plain. |
He laid aside his crown |
All our crimes he carried |
Was lifted from the ground |
And with our burdens buried. |
Listen to me, though I speak of sober things |
Listen through me, though a man of lips unclean. |
I speak truly what you only think you’ve heard |
Everything hangs on a word. |
Sparing no expense, he made recompense for all the earth; |
this story’s an offense, so get down from that fence and bless or curse. |
He laid aside his crown |
All our crimes he carried |
Was lifted from the ground |
And with our burdens buried. |
When shadows all had clung and the light diminished, he emptied out his lungs, |
crying «It is finished!» |
Listen to me, though I speak of sober things |
Listen through me, though a man of lips unclean. |
I speak truly what you only think you’ve heard |
Everything hangs on a word. |
