poor bishop hooper – a ghost to guide you lyrics
[verse 1]
pack my debts on the backs of men
and you’re left with an army, ten thousand
burdened, tired, and slow to move
weighed down by the price i owe to you
[verse 2]
but a penny’s all i ever gave
and to a faithful man, to a fellow slave
he asked for patience, he asked for grace
but i choked him down when he could not pay
[chorus]
show me your way breaking mine
it was always seven times
until you spoke of your immeasurable approach
just a shadow of where you’rе from and where you’ll go
[verse 3]
and by word you heard of my hardеned head
as i kept your kindness to myself
all compassion since betrayed
and my tortured term was the bed i made
[chorus]
show me your way breaking mine
it was always seven times
until you spoke of your immeasurable approach
just a shadow of where we’re from and where we’ll go
[bridge]
you breathed and said, “receive
this ghost to guide you
as you go and fight for me
it is he who’ll cry out for you”
and we pray, “lead us not into
what tempts our bones desires
forgive our unending sins
as day after day we commit them
as time after time we forget them”
[chorus]
show me your way breaking mine
it was always seven times
show me your way breaking mine
it was always seven times
