Here Was A Man

Here Was A Man - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)[00:00:00]

Written by:Bill Walker/Johnny Bond/Tex Ritter[00:00:00]

Here was a man a man[00:00:11]

Who was born in a small village[00:00:14]

The son of a peasant woman[00:00:16]

He grew up in another small village[00:00:18]

Until he reached the age of thirty[00:00:22]

He worked as a carpenter[00:00:24]

Then for three years[00:00:26]

He was a traveling minister[00:00:27]

But he never traveled more[00:00:29]

Than two hundred miles from[00:00:30]

Where he was born and[00:00:32]

Where he did go he usually walked[00:00:34]

He never held political office[00:00:38]

He never wrote a book[00:00:41]

Never bought a home[00:00:43]

Never had a family[00:00:44]

He never went to college[00:00:46]

And he never set foot inside a big city[00:00:48]

Yes here was a man[00:00:50]

Yes here was a man[00:00:54]

Though he never did one on the things[00:00:56]

Usually associated with greatness[00:00:58]

He had no credentials but himself[00:01:02]

He had nothing to do with this world[00:01:05]

Except through the divine purpose[00:01:07]

That brought him to this world[00:01:10]

While he was still a young man[00:01:13]

The tide of popular opinion turned against him[00:01:15]

Most of his friends ran away[00:01:20]

One of them denied him[00:01:22]

One of them betrayed him[00:01:24]

And turned him over to his enemies[00:01:26]

Then he went through the mockery of a trial[00:01:29]

And was nailed to a cross between two thieves[00:01:32]

And even while he was dying[00:01:38]

His executioners gambled[00:01:41]

For the only piece of property[00:01:43]

That he had in this world[00:01:45]

And that was his robe his purple robe[00:01:47]

When he was dead[00:01:53]

He was taken down from the cross[00:01:55]

And laid in a borrowed grave[00:01:57]

Provided by compassionate friends[00:01:59]

More than nineteen centuries have come and gone[00:02:04]

And today he's a centerpiece of the human race[00:02:07]

Our leader in the column to human destiny[00:02:10]

I think I'm well within the mark when I say[00:02:15]

That all of the armies that ever marched[00:02:18]

All of the navies that ever sailed the seas[00:02:21]

All of the legislative bodies that ever sat[00:02:24]

And all of the kings that ever reigned[00:02:27]

All of them put together have not affected[00:02:30]

The life of man on this earth[00:02:33]

So powerfully as that one solitary life[00:02:35]

Here was a man[00:02:41]
