Array ( [sid] => 66558 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => That I Should Die - revised [time] => 2004-10-08 01:27:39 [hometext] => I felt there was something unfinished about this song - the final chorus came to me today, and btw, I also changed one word. [bodytext] => God said to Jesus,
“Stand up my son, you’re now a man.
These doubts you’re having,
I’ll try to clear as best I can.
Though if you heed me, this much is true:
you will be crucified
it makes so little difference what I do.”

Well now young Jesus
said “Dad you know what’s going down.
People aren’t friendly
and those who fear have left this town;
still we continue, full steam ahead,
so please do tell me father:
can I still come see you when I’m dead.”

- chorus I -
"I’m not that happy that I should die
when I’m not even sure I know the reason why;
to sacrifice me, what will it serve?
Is it to save their some souls
when that is really
more than they deserve. "

God didn’t argue,
God knows at times faith can be weak.
As re-inforcement
to Jesus God these words did speak:
“Paths there are many, most lead astray,
look well inside your heart
and maybe you will learn there is a way.”

-chorus II -
"I’m not that happy that you’re to die
when I’m the only one who knows the reason why;
to sacrifice you, it breaks my heart,
though it will save your soul
and you and me
will never be apart."

PS. I intend recording this on the weekend and posting it on my web page.

I like this one.
And you are right, we didn't deserve it.
