Michael Franti andamp; Spearhead - My Lord Lyrics

My Lord, my Lord, my Lord, my Lord
Show me all the things I need to know
My Lord, my Lord, my Lord, my Lord
Take me to the place I need to go

When I was born I was alone
Spent the rest of my life finding my way home
I chose the long road but it walked on me instead
I saw a sign there and this is what it said

We all get the time worth giving
But mine ain't over so I keep on living
We all get the life we're living
But mine ain't over so I keep on giving
Till the day I die

I bought a guitar and I wrote a song
Wrote it down for you so you could sing along
The flames of my heart went pounding through my head
Turned into teardrops and this is what they said
