Did Trouble Me

When I closed my eyes so I would not see
 My Lord did trouble me
 When I let things stand that should not be
 My Lord did trouble me
 When I held my head too high too proud
 My Lord did trouble me
 When I raised my voice too little too loud
 My Lord did trouble me
 Did trouble me
 With a word or a sign
 With the ringing of the bell in the back of my mind
 Did trouble me
 Did stir my soul
 For to make me human, to make me whole
 When I slept too long, slept too deep
 My Lord did trouble me
 Put a worrisome vision into my sleep
 My Lord did trouble me
 When I held myself away and apart
 My Lord did trouble me
 And the tears of my brother did move my heart
 My Lord did trouble me
 Did trouble me
 With a word or a sign
 With the ringing of the bell in the back of my mind
 Did trouble me
 Did stir my soul
 For to make me human, to make me whole
 And of this I'm sure, of this I know
 My Lord will trouble me
 Whatever I do and wherever I go
 My Lord will trouble me
 In the whisper of the wind, in the rhythm of a song
 My Lord will trouble me
 To keep me on the path where I belong
 My Lord will trouble me
 Will trouble me
 With a word or a sign
 With the ringing of the bell in the back of my mind
 Will trouble me
 Will stir my soul
 For to make me human, to make me whole
 Make me human, to make me whole
