Hymn 43 lyrics

Song information

Artist: Jethro Tull
Album: Living In The Past

Lyrics

Oh father high in heaven, smile down upon your son
Who's busy with his money games, his women and his gun
Oh jesus save me!
And the unsung western hero killed an indian or three
And made his name in hollywood
To set the white man free
Oh jesus save me!
If jesus saves -- well, he'd better save himself
From the gory glory seekers who use his name in death
Oh jesus save me!
I saw him in the city and on the mountains of the moon --
His cross was rather bloody --
He could hardly roll his stone
Oh jesus save me!
