《Elijah》歌词

[00:00:00] Elijah (以利亚) - Rich Mullins

[00:00:14] The jordan is waiting

[00:00:17] For me to 'cross through

[00:00:20] My heart is aging I can tell

[00:00:27] So lord I'm begging for one last favor from you

[00:00:33] Here's my heart take it where you will

[00:00:40] This life has shown me

[00:00:43] How we're mended and how we're torn

[00:00:47] How it's okay to be lonely as long as you're free

[00:00:53] Sometimes my ground was stoney

[00:00:56] And sometimes covered up with thorns

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

[00:01:05] And now that it's done

[00:01:07] Well if they dressed me like a pauper

[00:01:09] Or if they dined me like a prince

[00:01:13] If they lay me with my fathers

[00:01:16] Or if my ashes scatter on the wind

[00:01:18] I don't care

[00:01:20] But when I leave I want to go out like elijah

[00:01:26] With a whirlwind to fuel my chariot of fire

[00:01:33] And when I look back on the stars

[00:01:35] It'll be like a candlelight in central park

[00:01:41] And it won't break my heart to say goodbye

[00:01:59] There's people been friendly

[00:02:01] But they'd never be your friends

[00:02:05] Sometimes this has bent me to the ground

[00:02:12] Now that this is all ending

[00:02:14] I want to hear some music once again

[00:02:18] 'Cause it's the finest thing that I have ever found

[00:02:25] But the jordan is waiting

[00:02:27] Though I ain't never seen the other side

[00:02:32] Still they say you can't take in the things you have here

[00:02:38] So on the road to salvation

[00:02:40] I stick out my thumb and he gives me a ride

[00:02:44] And his music is already falling on my ears

[00:02:51] There's people been talking

[00:02:54] They say they're worried about my soul

[00:02:57] Well I'm here to tell you I'll keep rocking

[00:03:01] 'Til I'm sure it's my time to roll

[00:03:04] And when I do

[00:03:05] When I leave I want to go out like elijah

[00:03:11] With a whirlwind to fuel my chariot of fire

[00:03:17] And when I look back on the stars

[00:03:20] It'll be like a candlelight in central park

[00:03:26] And it won't break my heart to say goodbye

[00:03:30] 'Cause when I leave I want to go out like elijah

[00:03:36] With a whirlwind to fuel my chariot of fire

[00:03:42] And when I look back on the stars

[00:03:45] It'll be like a candlelight in central park

[00:03:51] And it won't break my heart to say goodbye

[00:04:22] The jordan is waiting

[00:04:28] The jordan is waiting

[00:04:35] Bye bye
