The Good Lord
Finding Redemption: The Good Lord's Message from Zion
Lyrics
People, people can't you see and know
Addressing people, urging them to perceive and understand
What is really going on?
Asking people to recognize and comprehend the current situation
It's that same old thing, it's, it's nothing new
Referring to a recurring issue, emphasizing its familiarity and lack of novelty
More than 2,000 years ago
Pointing to a situation that has existed for more than 2,000 years
The Good Lord send me from Zion
Expressing that the speaker has been sent by the divine force from Zion
The Good Lord, you send me down
Acknowledging that the speaker has been sent down by the Good Lord
The Good Lord send me from Zion
Reiterating the divine origin and mission of the speaker from Zion
The Good Lord, you send me down
Emphasizing the role of the Good Lord in sending the speaker down
All my days I've lived in misery
Expressing a lifetime of suffering and hardship
Whishing one day to be free
Expressing a desire for freedom after enduring misery
Now I bend down on my, my knees and pray
Describing a humble act of praying on one's knees
And these are the words that I say:
Revealing the content of the speaker's prayer
The Good Lord send me from Zion, yes he done
Affirming that the Good Lord has sent the speaker from Zion
The Good Lord, you send me down
Reiterating that the speaker has been sent down by the Good Lord
The Good Lord send me from Zion, send me down
Reaffirming the divine origin and mission of the speaker from Zion
The Good Lord, you send me down
Emphasizing the role of the Good Lord in sending the speaker down
The Good Lord, you send me down
Repeated affirmation of being sent down by the Good Lord
The Good Lord, you send me down
Further emphasizing the divine origin and mission
The Good Lord from Zion...
Concluding with a reference to the Good Lord from Zion
