old uncle jerry - staples lyrics
everybody’s talking like they got all the answers
everybody seems to have heard it all before
well, i don’t know that i got anything new to tell them
lord, who’s gonna listen to someone like me
when i reach for the answer
will the words come
will the truth be there
when i say that i believe
and it’s no accident you put me here
though your message is sometimes so very hard to see
i am a broken vessel
i am the question in the mystery
they say that one day, all will be revealed
though i’m happy just to wait and see
if you’re gonna send someone
then, lord, send me
everyone seems to know just what they’re doin’
it’s all creation goes burning up in flames
am i the only one who thinks that we may be in trouble?
is it i alone who thinks there must be some other way?
we’ve let the politicians and the rich rule for a while
now let’s see what the lily of the valley has to say
i am a broken vessel
i am the question in the mystery
they say that one day, all will be revealed
though i’m happy just to wait and see
if you’re gonna send someone
then, lord, send me
