The Preacher And The Stranger

The Preacher & The Stranger - Celtic Thunder[00:00:00]

Written by:Carl Cartee/Jerry Dean Salley Jr.[00:00:00]

We don't have much here[00:00:03]

But you're welcome to it all[00:00:06]

The preacher told the stranger at the door[00:00:09]

Come sit down by this fire[00:00:16]

Let the coffee warm you up[00:00:19]

I can't see I've seen it rain this hard before[00:00:22]

The stranger said[00:00:29]

I saw your sign as I was walking down the road[00:00:31]

And I figured that a church[00:00:35]

Might be the safest place to go[00:00:38]

Well son crosses sure get heavy[00:00:43]

And we've all got one to bear[00:00:47]

And if you're looking for a shelter[00:00:50]

From the storm you'll find one here[00:00:53]

They sat and talked for hours[00:00:57]

There in that empty church[00:01:00]

About how life's unfair sometimes[00:01:04]

Trying to make sense of how god works[00:01:07]

The preacher said[00:01:15]

I lost my son one summer[00:01:16]

He was only 25[00:01:20]

A drunk driver crossed that double yellow line[00:01:23]

And I prayed so hard to Jesus[00:01:29]

To save my only son[00:01:33]

It seems all I do these days is question why[00:01:36]

Now I stand here every Sunday[00:01:42]

And preach to everybody else[00:01:46]

And I talk about forgiveness[00:01:49]

But I can't do it myself[00:01:53]

Son crosses sure get heavy[00:01:58]

And we've all got one to bear[00:02:01]

I don't know why I'm telling you all this[00:02:04]

Or if you even care[00:02:07]

They sat and talked for hours[00:02:11]

There in that empty church[00:02:14]

About how life's unfair sometimes[00:02:18]

Trying to make sense of how god works[00:02:21]

Tears filled the strangers eyes[00:02:34]

He said I know I've changed a lot[00:02:37]

I might be hard for you to recognize[00:02:41]

But late one summer night[00:02:47]

I'd had too much to drink[00:02:50]

I got behind the wheel and changed both of our lives[00:02:53]

I'm sorry just ain't good enough[00:03:00]

When you hurt someone like that[00:03:03]

And if I could[00:03:07]

God knows I'd give my life to bring him back[00:03:08]

Crosses sure get heavy[00:03:15]

And we've all got one to bear[00:03:18]

I'm here to ask forgiveness[00:03:22]

If you even care[00:03:25]

They sat and talked for hours[00:03:28]

There in that empty church[00:03:31]

About how life's unfair sometimes[00:03:35]

Trying to make sense of how god works[00:03:38]
