before easter
BEFORE EASTER I may beg Beg for money I may lie and lay my body down Sell what I would give with love One day before Easter comes But I won't let Jesus find me I walk I eat I sleep In these streets I may be found Alive or dead or just reborn One day before Easter comes But I won't let Jesus find me Jesus knows what I've done I won't let him lift me up Before I can turn To look for him Before I can turn To look for him If Jesus comes around again I'll cry I'll cry I'll cry for help I'll let you be the one To try to redeem the sins of man One day before Easter comes But I won't let Jesus find me I'm gonna hide Hide from him Hide myself but not the sin I'm gonna hide Hide from him Hide myself but no the sin If Jesus comes around again I've got the rock the needle The bottle of sorrow And Jesus Jesus Jesus knows © 2004 Tracy Chapman
