Not every song that will be featured here will be what is generally considered as being “Christian” in the eyes of this world. For some will be anguished cries from the pit of despair, and others will be quite obviously ferverent rants of rebellion. Nonetheless, be assured that they will all be of our Heavenly Father (in one way or another) and I hope that you have been given ears to hear the message.

When A Blind Man Cries
Deep Purple
If you’re leavin’
Close the door
I’m not expecting people
Anymore
Hear me grievin’
Lyin’ on the floor
Whether I’m drunk or dead
I really ain’t too sure
I’m a blind man
I’m a blind man
And my world is pale
When a blind man cries
Lord you know
There ain’t a sadder tale
Had a friend once
In a room
Had a good time
But it ended much too soon
In a cold month
In that room
We found a reason
For the things we had to do
I’m a blind man
I’m a blind man
Now my room is cold
When a blind man cries
Lord you know
He feels it from his soul

Child In Time
Deep Purple
Sweet child in time
You’ll see the line
Line that’s drawn between
The good and the bad
See the blind man
Shooting at the world
Bullets flying
Oh taking toll
If you’ve been bad
Oh Lord I bet you have
And you’ve not been hit
Oh by flying lead
You’d better close your eyes
Aaaaaaaaah
Aaaah
Oh oh oh oh
Bow your head
Wait for the ricochet
Oooooooo
Oooooooo
Ooooooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo
Ooooooooh
Ooooooooh
Oooooooh oooh oooh
Oh I wanna hear you sing
Aaaaaaaah
Aaaaaaaah
Aaaah ah ah
Oh oh oh
Aaaaaaaah
Aaaaaaaah
Aaaah ah ah
Aaaaaaaah
Aaaaaaaah
Aaaah ah ah
Sweet child in time
You’ll see the line
Line that’s drawn between
The good and the bad
See the blind man
Shooting at the world
Bullets flying
Oh taking toll
If you’ve been bad
Oh Lord I bet you have
And you’ve not been hit
Oh by flying lead
You’d better close your eyes
Aaaaaaaaah
Aaaah
Oh oh oh
Bow your head
Wait for the ricochet
Oooooooo
Oooooooo
Ooooooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo
Oooooooo
Oooooooo
Ooooooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo
Aaaaaaaah
Aaaaaaaah
Aaaah ah ah
Ah I gotta hear you sing
Aaaaaaaah
Aaaaaaaah
Aaaah ah ah
Oh oh oh
Aaaaaaaah
Aaaaaaaah
Aaaah ah ah

Oh God

Oh

No
Aah
Aaah

Wow...what a flashback!!! I feel like I need to be in a room darkened by some black velour curtains and the glow of a lava lamp!!
ReplyDeleteI have to admit that I never listened to much deep purple so I don't remember ever hearing either of these songs.
ReplyDeleteSorry - I didn't listen to them either. Sandie
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by again, my dear Coleen!!! Alas, it is perhaps one of the greatest tragedies of my childhood. For I was never allowed to have a black-light poster--let alone a black-light.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by again, my dear Ann!!! After listening to certain portions of the song over and over and over and over again in an attempt to get all of the oooooooos and aaaaaaaahs down as accurately as possible, be assured that I would rather not hear "Child In Time" again for a while.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by again, my dear Sandie!!! The upcoming "vs." match-up may bring back a memory or two.
ReplyDeleteChild in time!
ReplyDeleteWhat a track!!!!!!!!!
Best so far!!!!
Child in time!
ReplyDeleteWhat a track!!!!!!!!!
Best so far!!!!
Thanks for stopping by again, my dear Adullamite!!! This surprises me. For I would think that "Child In Time" wouldn't be a song that you would love. Nonetheless, I'm sure glad you do.
