| Secret Ambition |
| Young men, up on the hillside Teaching their ways Each word, winning them over Each heart a kindled flame Old men, watch from the outside Guarding their prey Threated by the voice of a paragon Leading their lambs away Leading them far away Nobody knew his secret ambition Nobody knew his claim to fame He broke the old rules steeped in tradation He tore the holy veil away Questioning those in powerful positions Running to those who called his name But nobody knew his secret ambition Was to give his life away His rage, shaking the temple His word to the wise His hand, healing on the seventh day His love wearing no disguise Some say, death to the radical He's way out of line Some say, praised be the miracle God sends a blessed sign A blessed sign for troubled times Nobody knew his secret ambition Nobody knew his claim to fame He broke the old rules steeped in tradation He tore the holy veil away Questioning those in powerful positions Running to those who called his name But nobody knew his secret ambition Was to give his life away... Ohh... Oh... Oh... Nobody knew his secret ambition Nobody knew his claim to fame He broke the old rules steeped in tradation He tore the holy veil away Questioning those in powerful positions Running to those who called his name But nobody knew his secret ambition Was to give his life away Oooohh... No no, No no I tell you nobody knew Until he gave his life away No! |
