I'm Scared

Said I'm scared, Lord I'm scared, I'm terrified Never been much on religion But I sure enough would like to hear the call I'm scared, Lordy Lord, I'm shakin', I'm petrified Never been much on religion But I sure enough just fell down on my knees I heard the singin' Something about good will toward men And even Sleepin' in heavenly peace Stopped by to see Saint Thomas On a cold and dreary New York afternoon Something in the air was oh, so rare I don't know what it was But I know that it's still right there I'm scared, Lordy Lord I'm shakin', I'm terrified Never been much on religion But I sure enough just fell down on my knees Livin' in confusion Searching for truth that I never found I needed, something to really believe Looked toward the heavens On a dark and stormy winter afternoon Somethin' in the air was oh, so rare I'm not really sure what it was But I know for sure that it's still right there I'm scared, he-e-e-ey I'm terrified Never been much on religion But I sure enough just fell down on my knees I'm scared, you know I'm shakin' I'm layin' awake thinkin' about it now I'm terrified Never been much on religion But I sure enough would like to hear the call Come on now, give me a sign you're listening to me You hear me talking, you hear me crying And it's confusing to me Lord, I'm terrified Never been much on religion But I sure enough just fell down on my knees
