The man in me will do nearly any task,
And as for compensation, there's little he would ask.
Take a woman like you
To get through to the man in me.

Storm clouds are raging all around my door,
I think to myself I might not take it any more.
Take a woman like your kind
To find the man in me.

But, oh, what a wonderful feeling
Just to know that you are near,
Sets my a heart a-reeling
From my toes up to my ears.

The man in me will hide sometimes to keep from bein' seen,
But that's just because he doesn't want to turn into some machine.
Took a woman like you
To get through to the man in me.

WELL, IN MY TIME OF DYING DON'T WANT NOBODY TO MOURN
ALL I WANT FOR YOU TO DO IS TAKE MY BODY HOME
WELL, WELL, WELL, SO I CAN DIE EASY
WELL, WELL, WELL
WELL, WELL, WELL, SO I CAN DIE EASY
JESUS GONNA MAKE UP, JESUS GONNA MAKE UP
JESUS GONNA MAKE UP MY DYING BED
WELL, MEET ME JESUS, MEET ME, MEET ME IN THE MIDDLE OF THE AIR
IF THESE WINGS SHOULD FAIL ME
LORD, WON'T YOU MEET ME WITH ANOTHER PAIR?
WELL, WELL, WELL, SO I CAN DIE EASY
WELL, WELL, WELL
WELL, WELL, WELL, SO I CAN DIE EASY
JESUS GONNA MAKE UP, JESUS GONNA MAKE UP
JESUS GONNA MAKE UP MY DYING BED
LORD, IN MY TIME OF DYING, DON'T WANT NOBODY TO CRY
ALL I WANT YOU TO DO IS TAKE ME WHEN I DIE
WELL, WELL, WELL, SO I CAN DIE EASY
WELL, WELL, WELL
WELL, WELL, WELL, SO I CAN DIE EASY
JESUS GONNA MAKE UP, JESUS GONNA MAKE UP
JESUS GONNA MAKE UP MY DYING BED

PRECIOUS ANGEL, UNDER THE SUN
HOW WAS I TO KNOW YOU'D BE THE ONE
TO SHOW ME I WAS BLINDED, TO SHOW ME I WAS GONE
HOW WEAK WAS THE FOUNDATION I WAS STANDING UPON ?
NOW THERE'S SPIRITUAL WARFARE AND FLESH AND BLOOD BREAKING DOWN
YA EITHER GOT FAITH OR YA GOT UNBELIEF AND THERE AIN'T NEUTRAL GROUND
THE ENEMY IS SUBTLE, HOW BE IT WE ARE SO DECEIVED
WHEN THE TRUTH'S IN OUR HEARTS AND WE STILL DON'T BELIEVE ?
SHINE YOU LIGHT, SHINE YOUR LIGHT ON ME
SHINE YOU LIGHT, SHINE YOUR LIGHT ON ME
SHINE YOU LIGHT, SHINE YOUR LIGHT ON ME
YA KNOW I JUST COULDN'T MAKE IT BY MYSELF
I'M A LITTLE TOO BLIND TO SEE.
MY SO CALLED FRIENDS HAVE FALLEN UNDER A SPELL
THEY LOOK ME SQUARELY IN THE EYE AND THEY SAY, WELL ALL IS WELL
CAN THEY IMAGINE THE DARKNESS THAT WILL FALL FROM ON HIGH
WHEN MEN WILL BEG GOD TO KILL THEM AND THEY WON'T BE ABLE TO DIE.
SISTER, LEMME TELL YOU ABOUT A VISION THAT I SAW
YOU WERE DRAWING WATER FOR YOUR HUSBAND, YOU WERE SUFFERING UNDER THE LAW
YOU WERE TELLING HIM ABOUT BUDDHA, YOU WERE TELLING HIM ABOUT MOHAMMED IN THE SAME BREATH
YOU NEVER MENTIONED ONE TIME THE MAN WHO CAME AND DIED A CRIMINAL'S DEATH.
SHINE YOU LIGHT, SHINE YOUR LIGHT ON ME
SHINE YOU LIGHT, SHINE YOUR LIGHT ON ME
SHINE YOU LIGHT, SHINE YOUR LIGHT ON ME
YA KNOW I JUST COULDN'T MAKE IT BY MYSELF
I'M A LITTLE TOO BLIND TO SEE.
PRECIOUS ANGEL, YOU BELIEVE ME WHEN I SAY
WHAT GOD HAS GIVEN TO US NO MAN CAN TAKE AWAY
WE ARE COVERED IN BLOOD GIRL, YOU KNOW OUR FOREFATHERS WERE SLAVES
LET US HOPE THEY'VE FOUND MERCY IN THEIR BONE-FILLED GRAVES.
YOU'RE THE QUEEN OF MY FLESH, GIRL, YOU'RE MY WOMAN, YOU'RE MY DELIGHT
YOU'RE THE LAMB OF MY SOUL, GIRL, AND YOU TOUCH UP THE NIGHT
BUT THERE'S VIOLENCE IN THE EYES, GIRL, SO LET US NOT BE ENTICED
ON THE WAY OUT OF EGYPT, THROUGH ETOPOIA, TO THE JUDGEMENT HALL OF CHRIST.
SHINE YOU LIGHT, SHINE YOUR LIGHT ON ME
SHINE YOU LIGHT, SHINE YOUR LIGHT ON ME
SHINE YOU LIGHT, SHINE YOUR LIGHT ON ME
YA KNOW I JUST COULDN'T MAKE IT BY MYSELF
I'M A LITTLE TOO BLIND TO SEE.

SAID THE NIGHT WIND TO THE LITTLE LAMB
DO YOU SEE WHAT I SEE?
WAY UP IN THE SKY, LITTLE LAMB
DO YOU SEE WHAT I SEE?
A STAR, A STAR, DANCING IN THE NIGHT
WITH A TAIL AS BIG AS A KITE
WITH A TAIL AS BIG AS A KITE
SAID THE LITTLE LAMB TO THE SHEPHERD BOY
DO YOU HEAR WHAT I HEAR?
RINGING THROUGH THE SKY, SHEPHERD BOY
DO YOU HEAR WHAT I HEAR?
A SONG, A SONG HIGH ABOVE THE TREES
WITH A VOICE AS BIG AS THE SEA
WITH A VOICE AS BIG AS THE SEA
SAID THE SHEPHERD BOY TO THE MIGHTY KING
DO YOU KNOW WHAT I KNOW?
IN YOUR PALACE WARM, MIGHTY KING
DO YOU KNOW WHAT I KNOW?
A CHILD, A CHILD SHIVERS IN THE COLD
LET US BRING HIM SILVER AND GOLD
LET US BRING HIM SILVER AND GOLD
SAID THE KING TO THE PEOPLE EVERYWHERE
LISTEN TO WHAT I SAY!
PRAY FOR PEACE, PEOPLE, EVERYWHERE
LISTEN TO WHAT I SAY!
THE CHILD, THE CHILD SLEEPING IN THE NIGHT
HE WILL BRING US GOODNESS AND LIGHT
HE WILL BRING US GOODNESS AND LIGHT
