The Puritan - Ray Cooper[00:00:00]

Written by：Trad[00:00:01]

I filled my saddlebags with corn[00:00:14]

And bid my home goodbye[00:00:18]

I set out for the west[00:00:21]

With the flaming sun[00:00:26]

In my eyes[00:00:28]

A sword and a bible by my side[00:00:31]

I joined a regiment of horse[00:00:38]

And with them I did go[00:00:42]

We roared up hills and over dales[00:00:45]

As we hunted down[00:00:50]

Our frightened foe[00:00:52]

And the Lord have mercy on their souls[00:00:54]

I've seen castles torn down[00:01:02]

Villages alight and cattle burn[00:01:07]

I've listened to the tolling of the gun[00:01:11]

And the clash of steel[00:01:16]

As morning comes[00:01:18]

And the Lord's seen all that I have done[00:01:21]

They gave me a house in lieu of pay[00:01:33]

With fine grazing land[00:01:37]

A river of silver running through[00:01:40]

It was a paradise[00:01:45]

That I had found[00:01:47]

And the Lord led me to this chosen ground[00:01:50]

But when I hear the crying of a child[00:01:57]

I still hear the rattle of the drum[00:02:02]

And see the shadows hanging in the trees[00:02:07]

And a smell of burning follows me[00:02:11]

And the Lord's seen all that I have done[00:02:16]

But Jesus was always on our side[00:02:24]

A sword of righteousness hung in the sky[00:02:28]

We sang a hymn to make the cowards turn[00:02:33]

And then we cut them down[00:02:37]

As they did run[00:02:40]

And the Lord's seen all that I have done[00:02:43]
