《Trouble In The Amen Corner》歌词
[00:00:00] Trouble in the Amen Corner - Jim Reeves (吉姆·里夫斯)
[00:00:12] It was a stylish congregation you could see they'd been around
[00:00:18] And they had the biggest pipe organ of any church in town
[00:00:23] But over in the Amen Corner of that church sat Brother Ayer
[00:00:26] And he insisted every Sunday on singing in the choir
[00:00:32] His voice was cracked and broken age had touched his vocal chords
[00:00:37] And nearly every Sunday he'd get behind and miss the words
[00:00:43] Well the choir got so flustered the church was told in fine
[00:00:46] That Brother Ayer must stop his singing or the choir was going to resign
[00:00:52] So the pastor appointed a committee I think it was three or four
[00:00:58] And they got in their big fine cars and drove up to Ayer's door
[00:01:02] They find the choir's great trouble sittin' there in an old arm chair
[00:01:07] And the summer's golden sunbeams lay upon his snow white hair
[00:01:11] Said York we're here dear Brother with the vestries approbation
[00:01:15] To discuss a little matter that affects the congregation
[00:01:20] Now it seems that your voice has interfered with the choir
[00:01:22] So if you'll just lay out are you listening Brother Ayer
[00:01:30] The old man raised his head a sign that he had hear
[00:01:34] And on his cheek the three men caught the glitter of a tear
[00:01:38] His feeble hands pushed back the locks as white as silky snow
[00:01:42] And he answered the committee in a voice both soft and low
[00:01:49] I wonder if beyond the tide that's breaking at my feet
[00:01:54] In that far off heavenly temple where my Master and I shall meet
[00:02:01] Yes I wonder if when I try to sing the song of God up higher
[00:02:08] I wonder if they'll kick me out of there for singing in heaven's choir
[00:02:15] A silence filled the little room and the old man bowed his head
[00:02:18] The committee went on back to town but Brother Ayer was dead
[00:02:22] The choir missed him for awhile but he was soon forgotten
[00:02:26] A few church goers watched the door but the old man entered not
[00:02:36] Far away his voice is sweet and he sings his heart desire
[00:02:42] Where are there no church committees and no fashionable choirs
[00:02:47] Let me hide myself in Thee
