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]
