Текст песни What A Friend We Have In Jesus (B.J. Thomas) с переводом

I been rocked to sleep many a night

To the tune of «what a friend»; come morning

«rock of ages would waken me gently once again

Then dad, he’d reach up and take the bible down

And read it, read it loud and long

I always thought that maybe our home was blest

When daddy would say, «mama, sing a song.»

Sister left home first, I guess

Then bob and then Tommy and then Dan

Then dad’s hair was turnin' white

'n I had to be mama’s little man

But it seemed that as daddy’s back growed weak

Mother’s faith just growed strong

And them were the greatest days of all, when mama sang a song

(rock of ages, cleft for

Me

Let me hide myself in thee.)

Ooh ooh ooh (through recitation)

I guess the house is still standing; I don’t get back much no more

No voice is left to fill them halls

'n no steps to grace the floor

You see, my mama sings in heaven now

Around god’s golden throne

But I’ll always believe this world

Is a better place because, one time, my mama, sang, a song
