"Nazarene" lyrics
(from "THE BOOK OF CLARENCE" soundtrack)
Gale force winds from the east I see
Hail stones coming up behind of me
Tidal waves beat up the road I stroll
Thunder and lightning as the tale unfolds
And, oh
What a world we made
What a bed we laid
When the sun shall fade
God, take my sins away
And, oh
What a life we live
What a fight we give
In your final scene
Cries of the Nazarene, oh
Old man time and his weathered hands
Must keep working for his tethered plans
Years fly by all too rapidly
Absent time with his family
Words written on his grave
What a bed he laid
And his son shall say
"God, give him time again"
Oh
What a life we live
What a fight we give
At the final scene
God bless the Nazarene, oh
And If I ever have to make it on my own
I pray the sun don't hide and leave me all alone
And if our destiny is somehow intertwined
I pray the hourglass extends the sands of time, time, time
God bless the Nazarene
Oh, God bless the Nazarene
Oh, God bless the Nazarene
Oh, God bless the Nazarene
Hail stones coming up behind of me
Tidal waves beat up the road I stroll
Thunder and lightning as the tale unfolds
And, oh
What a world we made
What a bed we laid
When the sun shall fade
God, take my sins away
And, oh
What a life we live
What a fight we give
In your final scene
Cries of the Nazarene, oh
Old man time and his weathered hands
Must keep working for his tethered plans
Years fly by all too rapidly
Absent time with his family
Words written on his grave
What a bed he laid
And his son shall say
"God, give him time again"
Oh
What a life we live
What a fight we give
At the final scene
God bless the Nazarene, oh
And If I ever have to make it on my own
I pray the sun don't hide and leave me all alone
And if our destiny is somehow intertwined
I pray the hourglass extends the sands of time, time, time
God bless the Nazarene
Oh, God bless the Nazarene
Oh, God bless the Nazarene
Oh, God bless the Nazarene
