Текст песни On the Altar (MaMuse) с переводом

I woke up this mornin'

Stumbled out of bed

The first thing that happened to me

I found myself

In a remote desert church

I laid down on the altar to sing

I’m gonna lay down on the altar

There is no better place, no better place

To lay down on the altar, and sing

Up from the stone

The moss and the bone

Arose a benevolent song

I opened my mouth

My hands and my heart

And sang to the ceiling above

I’m gonna lay down on the altar

There is no better place, no better place

To lay down on the altar, and sing

Lay it down

Give it up

Lay it down

And sing

There are sixteen candles

In the corner

Patiently awaiting the light

The Good Book is open

To a page about the barren womb

Of a women

For whom singing is right

I’m gonna lay down on the altar

There is no better place, no better place

To lay down on the altar, and sing

Lay it down

Give it up

Lay it down

And sing

By the old slave block auction

In a tunnel full of breeze

Way down in New Orleans

The winds conjured up

Every slave in my heart

And decided to set them free

I’m gonna lay down on the altar

There is no better place, no better place

To lay down on the altar, and sing

Aaah..

.. .And sing

I woke up this morning

Stumbled out of bed

The first thing that happened

I found myself

In a remote desert church

I laid down on the altar to sing
