Nashville Tribute Band feat. Jimi Westbrook & Dan Truman -
Joseph - A Nashville Tribute to the Prophet
Lamb to the Slaughter
The morning was clear
on the rode from Nauvoo
a tear touched his eye
as his home fell from view
the journey was silent
and few words were said
as he leaned to his brother
and quietly said
as a lamb to the slaughter
I willingly go
and die for my Father
his strength fills my soul
I live for my Savior and I'll die for him too
and with humble heart I lay down my life
a prophet of truth
Four humble men
sing with the angels on high
he asked if I for him would die
the flesh was weak
my blood ran chill
but my free spirit cried I will
for I know this day I shall see my Savior's face
as a lamb to the slaughter
I willingly go
and die for my Father his strength fills my soul
I live for my Savior and I'll die for him
and with humble heart I lay down my life
a prophet of truth
A noise from the stair way
a shot throught the door
the first martyr fell to the floor
tears fill Joseph's eyes
Oh my dear brother Hyrum
today you'll find peace
oh Lord my God
release my soul
set my spirit free
as a lamb to the slaughter
I willingly go
and die for my Father
his strength fills my soul
I live for my Savior
and I'll die for him too
and with humble heart I lay down my life
a prophet of truth
and with humble heart I go to my grave
a prophet of truth
on the rode from Nauvoo
a tear touched his eye
as his home fell from view
the journey was silent
and few words were said
as he leaned to his brother
and quietly said
as a lamb to the slaughter
I willingly go
and die for my Father
his strength fills my soul
I live for my Savior and I'll die for him too
and with humble heart I lay down my life
a prophet of truth
Four humble men
sing with the angels on high
he asked if I for him would die
the flesh was weak
my blood ran chill
but my free spirit cried I will
for I know this day I shall see my Savior's face
as a lamb to the slaughter
I willingly go
and die for my Father his strength fills my soul
I live for my Savior and I'll die for him
and with humble heart I lay down my life
a prophet of truth
A noise from the stair way
a shot throught the door
the first martyr fell to the floor
tears fill Joseph's eyes
Oh my dear brother Hyrum
today you'll find peace
oh Lord my God
release my soul
set my spirit free
as a lamb to the slaughter
I willingly go
and die for my Father
his strength fills my soul
I live for my Savior
and I'll die for him too
and with humble heart I lay down my life
a prophet of truth
and with humble heart I go to my grave
a prophet of truth
