poor bishop hooper - he loved us to the end lyrics

[verse 1]
listen on, listen in
have you seen my master?
you ask is he like those i’ve met
or kings with slaves in number

[verse 2]
they cheat their way to glory’s seat
lay burdens on mens’ shoulders
their fingers soft, their knees too weak
unmet by work or prayers

[chorus]
served the man who served him death
washed the filth from his feet, washed the dirt from him
betrayed for a pocket silver+laced
by a heart that didn’t understand
my master is a humblе man

[verse 3]
and when he knew his hour had comе
he kept his cup tight in hand
how great it’d be to see him old
still how much better the way he chose
he chose
[chorus]
served the man who served him death
washed the filth from his feet, washed the dirt from him
betrayed for a pocket silver+laced
by a heart that didn’t understand
then to hang on a hill he died
with the company of thieves on his left and on his right
said one man, “remember me if you can”
and he gave it all to him

[instrumental break]

[bridge]
even when no one saw
he loved us to the end
and even when everyone ran off
he loved us to the end
even when we have to stare through the holes in his hands
he loved us to the end

[outro]
he loved us to the end
he loved us to the end
he loved us to the end
he loved us to the end
he loved us to the end
he loved us to the end
