Tell
them tell them,
Tell them the reason why you crying children
Tell them, tell them tell them the
Reason why you shed those tears
(rep.)
If I never did right or if I
ever did wrong, wrong, wrong,
It's because situation arise
Where things don't seem to belong |
|
Trial and
crosses are always
Before me thorns and prickles
in-a my way, my way, my way, |
Ezekiel
2:6 - And thou, son of man, be
not afraid of them, neither be afraid of their
words, though briers and thorns be with thee, and
thou dost dwell among scorpions: be not afraid of
their words, nor be dismayed at their looks,
though they be a rebellious house. |
With the task-master
always
Behind me, waiting for a chance
To take my life away. |
|
And my burdens,
they're getting
Heavy and heavier every day
My burdens, |
Psalm
38:4 - For mine iniquities are
gone over mine head: as an heavy burden they are
too heavy for me.
Matthew 23:4 -
For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be
borne, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they
themselves will not move them with one of their
fingers. |
I'm like one
who
Labours without no pay
My burdens sweating like a slave to live another
day
My burdens, if I didn't follow my
Mind I would be gone astray. |
|
For silver and
gold have I none have I none
Silver and gold have I none have I none
Silver, silver, silver and gold have I none, have
I none
Silver and gold have I none have I none. |
Acts
3:6-7 - Then Peter said, Silver
and gold have I none; but such as I have give I
thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth
rise up and walk. And he took him by the right
hand, and lifted him up: and immediately his feet
and ankle bones received strength. |
So won't you
tell them tell them
Tell them the reason why you crying children.
Tell them, tell them, tell them the
Reason why you shed those tears
(rep.)
Working round the clock and obeying
The gong is like the weak who's
Got to feed the strong
I got to carry my load like a
Child of Israel battering and
Dragging along, along, along. |

Blessed is the
man who keepeth
his faith, and hope for the
day of his great Redemption |
Jeremiah
17:7 - Blessed is the man that
trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is. |
to get away
from grief and hate
And into the joys of the sweet liberations. |

dry bone crying in the wilderness |

was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of
the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the

very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were
very dry.

wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as

only muscle and blood can stand the test (rep.) |

Moses' Children
I know was
In shadows of death the shadows a death |

through the valley of the shadow of death, I will
fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and
thy staff they comfort me.
