《Elijah》歌词

[00:00:01] Elijah - Rich Mullins

[00:00:48] The Jordan is waiting for me to cross through

[00:00:55] My heart is aging I can tell

[00:01:01] So Lord I'm begging for one last favor from You

[00:01:07] Here's my heart take it where You will

[00:01:15] This life has shown me how we're mended and how we're torn

[00:01:22] How it's okay to be lonely as long as you're free

[00:01:28] Sometimes my ground was stony

[00:01:31] And sometimes covered up with thorns

[00:01:34] And only you could make it what it had to be

[00:01:40] And now that it's done

[00:01:42] Well if they dressed me like a pauper

[00:01:44] Or if they dined me like a prince

[00:01:48] If they lay me with my fathers

[00:01:51] Or if my ashes scatter on the wind

[00:01:54] I don't care

[00:01:55] But when I leave I want to go out like Elijah

[00:02:01] With a whirlwind to fuel my chariot of fire

[00:02:08] And when I look back on the stars

[00:02:11] It'll be like a candlelight in central park

[00:02:17] And it won't break my heart to say goodbye

[00:02:27] There's people been friendly

[00:02:31] But they'd never be your friends

[00:02:34] Sometimes this has bent me to the ground

[00:02:41] Now that this is all ending

[00:02:43] I want to hear some music once again

[00:02:47] 'Cause it's the finest thing I have ever found

[00:02:54] But the Jordan is waiting

[00:02:57] Though I ain't never seen the other side

[00:03:01] They say you can't take in the things you have here

[00:03:08] So on the road to salvation

[00:03:10] I stick out my thumb and he gives me a ride

[00:03:14] And his music is already falling on my ears

[00:03:21] But there's people been talking

[00:03:24] They say they're worried about my soul

[00:03:27] Well I'm here to tell You I'll keep rocking

[00:03:30] 'Til I'm sure it's my time to roll

[00:03:33] And when I do

[00:03:35] When I leave I want to go out like Elijah

[00:03:41] With a whirlwind to fuel my chariot of fire

[00:03:47] And when I look back on the stars

[00:03:50] It'll be like a candlelight in central park

[00:03:56] And it won't break my heart to say goodbye

[00:04:00] When I leave I want to go out like Elijah

[00:04:06] With a whirlwind to fuel my chariot of fire

[00:04:13] And when I look back on the stars

[00:04:16] It'll be like a candlelight in central park

[00:04:22] And it won't break my heart to say goodbye
