《Man In White (Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] Man In White (Album Version) - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)

[00:00:10] I studied at the feet of a master

[00:00:15] Gamaliel we called him

[00:00:17] The beauty of the law

[00:00:20] I was born of the Tribe of Benjamin

[00:00:23] I was a Pharisee

[00:00:26] And I could quote

[00:00:26] From memory the Holy Torah

[00:00:31] That day that the Nazarene

[00:00:33] Was brought to trial

[00:00:36] It was on a Sabbath eve

[00:00:38] There was a earthquake when He died

[00:00:42] Just another passing preacher

[00:00:44] Who came up from Galilee

[00:00:47] Blaspheming trouble-maker

[00:00:49] We let Him be crucified

[00:00:54] Then I thought that

[00:00:55] I would hear no more about him

[00:00:59] But his friends found his tomb empty

[00:01:01] Claimed that he rose from the dead

[00:01:05] Then they said he walked among them

[00:01:07] With the nail wounds in his hands

[00:01:10] That King upon a donkey

[00:01:12] With a thorn crown on his head

[00:01:21] His followers kept growing

[00:01:23] In great number

[00:01:25] And the one that they call Caiaphas

[00:01:27] Mocked us in the judgment hall

[00:01:31] And with the Greek name Stephen

[00:01:33] We knew the gentiles had come in

[00:01:36] I cast my vote against him

[00:01:38] He was stoned I saw him fall

[00:01:44] Then the friends of the

[00:01:45] Nazarene became united

[00:01:49] And I became enraged then

[00:01:51] Led a slaughter zealously

[00:01:55] I found their secret places

[00:01:57] They were beaten they were chained

[00:02:00] But some of them were scattered

[00:02:02] Justified in fearing me

[00:02:04] Then the Man in White appeared to me

[00:02:08] In such a blinding light it struck me down

[00:02:13] With it's brilliance took away my sight

[00:02:16] Then the Man in White

[00:02:19] In gentle loving tone spoke to me

[00:02:24] And I was blinded so that I might see

[00:02:27] The Man in White

[00:02:34] But like the wind that

[00:02:36] Blows the scattered sea

[00:02:38] From Alexandria to Antioch

[00:02:41] Their congregation grew

[00:02:45] I went to the high priest

[00:02:47] For letters of permission

[00:02:49] To go to other cities

[00:02:52] To see my mission through

[00:02:56] Six days on the hot road to the masters

[00:03:00] And just outside the city

[00:03:02] In the middle of the day

[00:03:06] A great unearthly light struck

[00:03:08] And overpowered me

[00:03:11] Prostrate on the hot road

[00:03:13] I was blinded were I laid

[00:03:19] Then I thought I heard the

[00:03:20] Rushing of great water

[00:03:24] And a multitude of angels

[00:03:26] Singing sweet and heavenly

[00:03:30] And through the sound of wind

[00:03:32] Came a voice so soft and kind

[00:03:34] Meant for only me to hear

[00:03:36] "Saul why do you persecute me "

[00:03:43] As I lay there on the ground

[00:03:44] In my blindness

[00:03:47] He asked me once again

[00:03:49] And suddenly the voice I knew

[00:03:53] So finally I managed

[00:03:55] A trembling response

[00:03:58] Who are you Lord I asked him

[00:04:00] But I already knew

[00:04:06] I am Jesus of Nazareth

[00:04:08] The voice answered

[00:04:11] Arise go to Damascus on the street

[00:04:13] Called Straight will be

[00:04:16] A place where you will wait

[00:04:18] For my servant Ananias

[00:04:21] He will open up your eyes

[00:04:23] You'll be a witness unto me

[00:04:27] So now I live to serve my master

[00:04:31] As zealous in his service as

[00:04:34] I once was as his foe

[00:04:37] And keeping his commandments

[00:04:39] Given on Damascus road

[00:04:42] I go to all the world

[00:04:44] And I let the whole world know

[00:04:46] Then the Man in White

[00:04:48] Appeared to me

[00:04:50] In such a blinding light

[00:04:51] It struck me down

[00:04:54] With it's brilliance took away my sight

[00:04:57] Then the Man in White

[00:05:00] In gentle loving tone spoke to me

[00:05:05] And I was blinded so that I might see

[00:05:08] The Man in White

[00:05:13] And I was blinded so that I might see

[00:05:19] The Man in White

[00:05:24] The Man in White
