Before Easter Songtext
von Tracy Chapman

I may beg, beg for money
I may lie and lay my body down
Sell what I would give with love
One day before Easter comes
But I won′t let Jesus find, find me

I walk, I eat, I sleep
In these streets I may be found
Alive or dead or just reborn
One day before Easter comes
But I won't let Jesus find, find me


Jesus knows what I′ve done
I won't let him lift me up
Before I can turn to look for him
Before I can turn to look for him
If Jesus comes around again

I cry, I cry, I cry for help
I'll let you be the one
Try to redeem the sins of man
One day before Easter comes
But I won′t let Jesus find, find me

Gonna hide, hide from him
Hide myself, but not the sin

Gonna hide, hide from him
Hide myself, but not the sin
If Jesus comes around again

Got the rod, the needle, the bottle of sorrow
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus knows
