john beag ó flatharta - nazarene song (come follow me) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i am a connemara man, i was born to be free
i love the beauty of the land and the magic of the sea
i heard the stories of great men who sailed the seven seas
and i learned the lore of an ancient folk and their love for the nazarene

[verse 2]
a hunter on the mountainside, a trapper on the sea
i love the chase, see the mountain hare throw a hound with ease
the púca sails to raise the spray, bringing bounty from the deep
not all the gold the world could hold, could buy that life from me

[verse 3]
one night as we had stretched our nets, and the storm had increased
a driving mist that was so thick, your hand you could not see
the gates of h+ll had sucked us in, and we were doomed it seemed
in the darkest hour before the dawn, i called on the nazarene

[chorus]
come listen all good+hearted men, whereever you may be
our lord is just as good today, as he was in galilee
come lend a hand and help him out, to feed his lambs and sheep
you’ll have everlasting happiness in the home of the nazarene

[instrumental]

[verse 4]
there came a day, it blew a gale, no boat could go to sea
i sat me down and a train of thought came rushing back to me
my brave old mates with whom i sailed and harvest in the deep
had sailed away to the great beyond, and were now with the nazarene

[verse 5]
now all had changed and the past was pain, but i’d reared my family
my loving wife and her little child were sleeping their last long sleep
on my native shore where the wild waves roar i scanned the glistening sea
i haul my boat upon the shore, and i follow the nazarene

[chorus]
come listen all good+hearted men, whereever you may be
our lord is just as good today, as he was in galilee
come lend a hand and help him out, to feed his lambs and sheep
you’ll have everlasting happiness in the home of the nazarene

[chorus]
come listen all good+hearted men, whereever you may be
our lord is just as good today, as he was in galilee
come lend a hand and help him out, to feed his lambs and sheep
you’ll have everlasting happiness in the home of the nazarene

[outro]
you’ll have everlasting happiness, in the home of the nazarene
