《Every Grain Of Sand》歌词

[00:00:00] Every Grain Of Sand - The Blind Boys Of Alabama

[00:00:40] In the time of my confession

[00:00:44] In the hour of my deepest need

[00:00:49] When the pool of tears beneath my feet

[00:00:54] Flood every newborn seed

[00:00:58] There's a dying force within me

[00:01:03] Reaching out somewhere

[00:01:08] Toiling in the danger

[00:01:12] And the morals of despair

[00:01:17] I don't have the inclination

[00:01:21] To look back on any mistake

[00:01:26] Like Cain I now behold a chain

[00:01:31] Of events that I must break

[00:01:36] In the fury of the moment

[00:01:40] I can see the master's hand

[00:01:45] And every leaf that trembles

[00:01:50] And every grain of sand

[00:02:01] All the flowers of on indulgence

[00:02:06] And the weeds of yester year

[00:02:10] Like criminals they helped choke the breath

[00:02:15] Of conscience and good cheer

[00:02:20] The sun beat down upon the steps

[00:02:25] Of time to light the way

[00:02:29] To ease the pain of idleness

[00:02:34] And the memory of decay

[00:02:38] I gaze into the doorway

[00:02:43] Of temptation's angry flame

[00:02:48] And every time I pass that way

[00:02:52] I'll always hear my name

[00:02:57] Then on ward in my journey

[00:03:02] I come to understand

[00:03:06] That every hair is numbered

[00:03:11] Like every grain of sand

[00:04:00] I have gone from rags to riches

[00:04:05] In the sorrow of the night

[00:04:10] In the violence of a summer's dream

[00:04:14] In the chill of a wintery light

[00:04:19] In the bitter dance of loneliness

[00:04:24] Fading into space

[00:04:28] In the broken mirror of innocence

[00:04:33] Of engerness forgotten race

[00:04:37] I hear the ancient footsteps

[00:04:42] Like the motion of the sea

[00:04:47] Sometimes I turn there's someone there

[00:04:51] Other times that's only me

[00:04:56] I'm hanging in the balance

[00:05:01] Of the reality of man

[00:05:05] Like every sparrow falling

[00:05:10] Like every grain of sand
