His Name Is Andrew - Martin Carthy[00:00:00]
His name is Andrew[00:00:12]
He works at the canning factory[00:00:17]
He doesn't have a friend[00:00:25]
He chooses to wait alone for his life to end[00:00:28]
When Andrew was just a little boy[00:00:38]
He learned all the words to all the hymns of joy[00:00:45]
And he sang them on Sunday[00:00:52]
And he sang them on Monday[00:00:58]
And through April and through May[00:01:02]
And he caught them say[00:01:09]
God is love[00:01:15]
God is love[00:01:21]
And he believed them[00:01:26]
This child was Andrew[00:01:35]
He lived in a world of no sense[00:01:41]
On him the lion grinned[00:01:48]
He sang in the arms of God as he strung along[00:01:51]
When Andrew was tall and twenty one[00:02:01]
He wandered far from God and wondered what he'd done[00:02:07]
For he still sang on Sunday[00:02:15]
Though he muddled through Monday[00:02:21]
With a silence in his head[00:02:25]
Till in jest it said[00:02:31]
God redeems[00:02:38]
God redeems[00:02:44]
And he believed it[00:02:48]
This man was Andrew[00:03:00]
On hearing a voice he thought was stilled[00:03:06]
Returned to the arms of grace[00:03:13]
He stumbled from the arms of night into a lighted place[00:03:18]
When Andrew returned into the light[00:03:29]
He lifted his voice and sang away the night[00:03:35]
And the preacher from Sunday[00:03:43]
Heard him singing on Monday[00:03:49]
And he stopped him with a word[00:03:53]
From the dark he heard[00:04:00]
God is dead[00:04:06]
God is dead[00:04:12]
And he believed it[00:04:17]
My name is Andrew[00:04:26]
I work at the canning factory[00:04:29]
I do not have a friend[00:04:35]
I choose to wait alone for this life to end[00:04:39]
