Bruce Springsteen - Jesus Was An Only Son Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Jesus was an only son
  • As he walked up Calvary Hill
  • His mother Mary walking beside him
  • In the path where his blood spilled
  • Jesus was an only son
  • In the hills of Nazareth
  • As he lay reading the Psalms of David
  • At his mother's feet
  • A mother prays, "Sleep tight, my child, sleep well
  • For I'll be at your side
  • That no shadow, no darkness, no tolling bell,
  • Shall pierce your dreams this night"
  • In the garden at Gethsemane
  • He prayed for the life he'd never live,
  • He beseeched his Heavenly Father to remove
  • The cup of death from his lips
  • Now there's a loss that can never be replaced,
  • A destination that can never be reached
  • A light you'll never find in another's face,
  • A sea whose distance cannot be breached
  • Well Jesus kissed his mother's hands
  • Whispered, "Mother, still your tears,
  • For remember the soul of the universe
  • Willed a world and it appeared
