    I wasn't at all sure this was a song sung by Black women. You're right, it is far too lame to be!

    I've posted many things from the various "got talent" shows.
    In truth I have held these show , without good cause, in rather low regard.

    For some reason I felt they were being exploitative..

    Here's why I was just so wrong.

    This song is a retelling of one of the most dramatic moments in the New Testament. God calls John The Baptist into his service.

    It is also one hell of a fiddle tune

    Want to hear it again?
    Ok, but lets go for pictorial lyrics!

    An old favorite



    [Verse 1]
    In the time of my confession, in the hour of my deepest need
    When the pool of tears beneath my feet flood every newborn seed
    There’s a dyin’ voice within me reaching out somewhere
    Toiling in the danger and in the morals of despair

    [Verse 2]
    Don’t have the inclination to look back on any mistake
    Like Cain, I now behold this chain of events that I must break
    In the fury of the moment I can see the Master’s hand
    In every leaf that trembles, in every grain of sand


    [Verse 3]
    Oh, the flowers of indulgence and the weeds of yesteryear
    Like criminals, they have choked the breath of conscience and good cheer
    The sun beat down upon the steps of time to light the way
    To ease the pain of idleness and the memory of decay

    [Verse 4]
    I gaze into the doorway of temptation’s angry flame
    And every time I pass that way I always hear my name
    Then onward in my journey I come to understand
    That every hair is numbered like every grain of sand

    [Verse 5]
    I have gone from rags to riches in the sorrow of the night
    In the violence of a summer’s dream, in the chill of a wintry light
    In the bitter dance of loneliness fading into space
    In the broken mirror of innocence on each forgotten face


    [Verse 6]
    I hear the ancient footsteps like the motion of the sea
    Sometimes I turn, there’s someone there, other times it’s only me

    I am hanging in the balance of the reality of man
    Like every sparrow falling, like every grain of sand

    [Harmonica solo]

    If you keep smoking that internet stuff like it was a fish and this could happen probably to you without you even looking!

    After listening to that song I don't know how you would avoid tears. I read that watching the show in real life can be far different than watching the production on tv. Yet I think the talent shows are very entertaining all the same.

    Thank you for including them in our music "power hour!"

    Pardon my ignorance, but I seriously don't know what I am allegedly "rubbing in."
