Lyrics

HAND TO THE PLOUGH
Hand to the plough, Don’t you ever look back
Hand to the plough, Don’t you ever look back
Hand to the plough, Don’t you ever look back
It’s a long row to hoe
I was living in the middle of a sun-scorched land
Your water was black as coal
A remedy, this could be ahelping hand
Just a taste will erase your soul
A hungry man said, can you give me some food?
I said, sure, here, take this bone
Then suddenly, the night, it turned into noon
And I realized I was alone
I fell asleep underneath the Judgement Tree
When I woke, you were gone
A rattling snake told me I needed something to eat
But I figured he was wrong
I was blind from the sky in the sun-scorched land
The hungry man led me to the waterside
I saw the light fill up the cup of his hand
And a voice said, Here Am I
