john butler trio - faith lyrics

well i’m digging around
in the sand
lost in the wilderness
just looking for a hand
i’ve got seed
that i must sow
great mystery up in the sky
lookin’ down upon me
with your millions of eyes
come on
there are things
i need to know
’cause i’ve danced with religion
i tried to make friends
but those seven days
i could not make amends with and
watched the kingdoms crumble
as they grow

well i’m just looking for some faith
to get me through tomorrow
with just a little grace
in this ole crazy world we live
sometimes it’s like a life raft
and other times leaks like a sieve
don’t ask me why

i brought the picks
and i got the spades
i got some dynamite
i even brought grenades, come on
let’s dig ourselves
into a great big hole
dig deep enough
maybe we’ll reach beijing
when we arrive i’ll hit the streets
and i’ll ask for the king
taking care of business
on the south side
or so i’ve been told
and when i see him
i’ll say, “hey you!”
“what happened to your
blue suede shoes? and uh
can you tell me where i hid
all my gold?”

’cause i’m just looking for some faith
to get me through tomorrow
with just a little grace
in this ole crazy world we live
sometimes it’s like a life raft
and other times leaks like a sieve
and when it all comes crumbling down
help me drop an anchor
to keep my roots there on the ground

’cause
peace of mind
is all i need to unwind
all these
tangled knots inside
i’m on my knees i’m crying and a
tell me i’m not alone
alone

well i’ve gone within
and i’ve gone without
i know my greatest sins
are all of my doubts
and all the fear
that corrodes my soul
and i do know
i’m a long time dead
and my papa said
you make your bed
and leave all behind unbroken
as you roam

and then you’ll find your faith
to get you through tomorrow
with just a little grace
in this ole crazy world we live
sometimes it’s like a life raft
and other times leaks like a sieve
and when it all comes crumbling down
help me drop an anchor
to keep my roots there on the ground
in this ole crazy world we live
sometimes it’s like a life raft
and other times leaks like a sieve

peace of mind
is all i need to unwind
all these
tangled knots inside
i’m on my knees i’m crying and a
tell me i’m not alone
tell me i’m not alone
tell me i’m not alone
they keep on telling me
no you’re not alone
they keep on telling me
no you’re not alone
they keep on telling me
no you’re not alone

well i’m digging around in the sand
lost in the wilderness, just looking for a hand
i’ve got seed that i must sow
