All the streets are filled with laughter and light And the music of the season And the merchants windows are all bright With the faces of the childrenAnd the families hurrying to their homes As the sky darkens and freezes Will be gathering around the hearths and tables Giving thanks for God's graces And the birth of the rebel JesusWell they call Him by the prince of peace And they call Him by the Savior And they pray to Him upon the seas And in every bold endeavorAnd they fill His churches with their pride and gold As their faith in Him increases But they've turned the nature that I worship in From a temple to a robber's den In the words of the rebel JesusWe guard our world with locks and guns And we guard our fine possessions And once a year when Christmas comes We give to our relationsAnd perhaps we give a little to the poor If the generosity should seize us But if any one of us should interfere In the business of why there are poor They get the same as the rebel JesusBut pardon me if I have seemed To take the tone of judgment For I've no wish to come between This day and your enjoymentIn a life of hardship and of earthly toil There is a need for anything that frees us So I bid you pleasure and I bid you cheer From a heathen and a pagan On the side of the rebel Jesus
Это интересно:Джексон Брауни известен как автор песен, хотя и сам начиная с 1972 года выпустил 13 студийных альбомов. К сожалению Брауни в отличие от Бонни Райтт, исполнившей множество его песен, так и не стал широко популярен.
А как ты думаешь, о чем песня "The Rebel Jesus" ?
