And it came to passAs Jesus sat at meat in the houseBehold, many publicans and sinners cameAnd sat down with him and his disciplesAnd when the Pharisees saw thisThey said unto his disciplesWhy eateth your MasterWith publicans and senators?But when Jesus heard thatHe said unto themThey that be whole need not a physicianBut they that are sickI walked into townWith a message for my old manI've got the last two chapters of MatthewIn my handSteve painting houses while Bobby wentAnd gone insaneThey buried my sisterBut daddy he stayed the sameFollow the sun out of the nightBrother, just lean into the lightYou wanna be sure, I'll give you sightBrother, just lean into the lightHis hands still shakeWhen the ponies break out on the track(Here comes the calling)His feet still quickWhen they say they want their money back(Here comes the calling)But Daddy did you thinkThat you could outrun the Holy Ghost?(Here comes the calling)Lie, cheat, stealHope they fix it all up in postThe book will be openIn front of the judgeUnquenchable fireOr keys to the kingdomFollow the sun out of the nightBrother, just lean into the lightYou wanna be sure, I'll give you sightBrother, just lean into the lightThe road to the kingdom's burnin' brightBrother, just lean into the lightYou heard that the master was traveling throughBut what would you do if he walked in the room?Make for the left, or break for the right?Brother, just lean inBrother, just lean into the lightFollow the sun out of the nightBrother, just lean into the lightYou wanna be sure, I'll give you sightBrother, just lean into the lightThe road to the kingdom's burnin' brightBrother, just lean into the lightFollow the sun out of the nightBrother, just lean into the lightHere comes the callingHere comes the calling
