(C) "Come un (Em7) to me, (Dm7) all you \'ec(G7) weary (C) heavy (Em7) laden. (Dm7) I will (G7) give you (C) rest." (C) There was a pharisee (Gm7) who invited the (F) Lord to his home for (C) dinner A woman came there, (Gm7) washed him with perfume and (F) tears from her (C) love "If (Bb) this man were a (F) prophet he'sd (C) know what kind of woman this is- (Bb, F) that she is a (G) sinner">>> >>>(C) Lord, I want the real me in (Em7) union with the real you The (Dm7) chains of my hypocrisy keep (G7) me from coming to you I'm (C) weary from the pain, Lord, of (Em7) running, hiding from you (Dm7) Break through my protective cover- (G7) teach me how to love you A deaf man heard again, a leper was cleansed to the bone What did the righteous say? I blind man saw again, a crippled man danced his way home But it was a Sabbath day "This man does miracles, but he does not fit in to the accepted teaching. How can we kill him?">>> "This people honors me with words, with words But their heart is far from me.">>>

I Am the Fisherman 06:26
lyrics

I am the fisherman the simple fisherman very busy with my task and my meager wage I am a practical man I don’t chase rainbows ‘cause I’m not very fit for a man my age Did he know what he was saying? The words don’t sit comfortably He said, “Follow me.” I am the leprous man I’m filled with leprosy I see how ugly I am in every face I see But I crave to know for just one moment what it’s like to feel someone in love with me And I’m so weary, weary of the horror that’s in everyone’s eyes “Be cleansed,” he spoke with power “Be cleansed,” his glory shone His eyes pierced through like sunshine piercing through the sea My soul has been on fire my world turned upside down ever since he spoke those words to me I am the woman at the well I wait religiously for Messiah to bring me paradise But it’s taking so long so I sell my loyalty to any rich fool who can pay the price But I’m so thirsty, thirsty for some water that will satisfy “I am,” he spoke with power “I am,” his glory shone His eyes pierced through like sunshine piercing through the sea My soul has been on fire my world turned upside down ever since he spoke those words to me I am wealthy, I have demons I am paralyzed I am sitting in a tax booth stealing from my own people He is healing, He delivers giving back my eyes Saying, “Sell everything that you have and come and follow me” I am the Pharisee I know my Bible I’m working hard for God and I’m not quite done I’ve got questions for him Maybe he will stumble Then we’ll really see just who’s the righteous one I’ve got plans to attend to Who is this who calls himself a king? “Beware,” he spoke with power “Beware,” his glory shone His eyes pierced through like sunshine piercing through the sea My soul has been on fire my world turned upside down ever since he spoke those words to me I am the crippled man My legs are useless What good is it for me to be alive? I’ve tried to matter in this world but it’s all so pointless Who is this man who says to me, “Arise”?
