READ YOUR BIBLE
MY GRANDMA READ THE GOOD BOOK.. EACH AND EVERY DAY
BUT IT WAS MORE THAN THAT…SHE REALLY TRIED TO LIVE IT TOO
YET SHE WASN`T ONE TO JAM IT DOWN YOUR THROAT THOUGH THAT`S THE WAY
A LOT OF FOLKS…WELL MEANIN` TRY TO DO
BUT..
ON HER FRONT PORCH ..SIPPIN` TEA ..WE`D BE TALKIN` ..JUST HER AND ME
AND SOMETIMES IN HER STORIES I WOULD HEAR HER DROP HIS NAME IN NOW AND THEN
THEN SOON I`D COME TO KNOW..THAT BEFORE SHE`D LET ME GO..
THREE WORDS WOULD MARK OUR CONVERSATION`S END……
MMMMM…
READ YOUR BIBLE
NOBODY ELSE COULD SPEAK TO ME LIKE GRANDMA WOULD
AND I`M GLAD SHE DID…CUZ LORD I NEEDED HELP
NO MATTER WHAT.. SHE ALWAYS STILL COULD SEE THE GOOD
IN ME WHEN I… COULDN`T SEE IT IN MYSELF
CHORUS REPEAT
SOME TIMES WHEN I AM FEELIN` BLUE AND OUT-OF-SORTS
AND WISHIN` SHE.. WERE HERE TO EASE MY MIND
I`LL GRAB THAT OL` KING JAMES AND SIT OUT ON MY PORCH
THEN DRIFT AWAY ..TO ANOTHER PLACE AND TIME…
CHORUS REPEAT
