This will be seen by very few - Please understand that this is a protest song where all the proceeds were donated to Everytown For Gun Safety. It's a song against gun violence. When he says pray for Paris - He is referring to the mass shooting in Paris. When he speaks of 49 dead - He is referring to the gay nightclub mass shooting in Orlando. When he speaks of Freddie Gray - He is referring to what cops joke about giving a 'suspect' a rough ride where he is handcuffed, put in the back of a van unsecured and driven around recklessly stopping and speeding up to make it a nightmare for the man in the back. Freddie Gray died after his ride from a spinal injury. All 6 officers were never convicted of anything. It's an awesome, stunning spiritual song. Just make sure you understand what it is saying to you.
LYRICS If you ever hear that thunder Put your eye to the sky, boy, and wonder Maybe there's a kingdom above the weather Oh, and whether you're gonna get our name is up to him If you ever hear that crying In the distance like some siren Maybe there's a singer With no ring around their little finger No love And If I lose my voice If I have no choice but to go quiet Won't you sing for me a melody into the night there Well, if I die too young, if the wolf he comes Fee-fi-fo-fum If I die too young, oh, if the locust come Well then, run, run, run Free If you ever hear that gunshot You may think 'bout what you do but you don't got Say a prayer, think of mother, I am a rock If you ever hear that sound now If the door gets kicked in here, they come now Think of others, be their cover I am what they're not Pray for Paris They can not scare us Or stop the music Your sweet voice, child Why don't you use it?

My dear friend just passed from cancer at 40. His third bout with it. His body couldn’t do chemo anymore. I watched this with him before he passed and he loved it. He was the musical director for his church. Thank you for posting this so I could I could share it with him. 💜💜⭐️⭐️
Bless Your Heart! PS My first GF was a Patricia. You're all Lovely! Send our love to your dead Friend! From Poland. Ed: Sorry for Your loss. Pardon me please for being a bit facetious here. May Your Friend rest in peace.
I'm so very sorry for your loss, It's hard to know what to say when someone dies, ( especially anyone young ). I hope your friend is Resting in peace, safe in the arms of Jesus 🙏.
Same. Everytown For Gun Safety is nothing more than a vehicle for Bloomberg to promote his personal gun-control agenda. Everytown For Gun Safety's agenda is more than ridding felons of illegal guns. Under the guise of helping towns facing a crime and drug epidemic, Everytown For Gun Safety promotes confiscation of guns from law-abiding citizens.
@@shelleyneidich8385 Yeah. And the commercial was kinda creepy. Haha but I had to SoundHound the song--it’s beautiful. I hate being late about discovering good songs!
I was so happy to hear this on TV! It's a great song and I feel like the media is finally picking up on and giving more credit to less mainstream music, touche.
Whoever paired the commercial with this song is genius! At 66 years young I can’t get enough of this Kevin Morby! Originally used in movie El Topo! We are all Beautiful Strangers! More alike than not! 💕
Just about every time I listen to this song I swell up with tears because of how beautiful it is and it's definitely one of the songs I've listened to the most consistently this year. The writing
I heard it on the commercial, and it rang like a bell in my soul. I’m not a child of resistance, but I love the tone of protest, and I hear it here, in every word.
I like most of us here heard this on an ad. So glad I found him, very talented and clever songwriter, and a lovely soul I suspect. I am an instant fan!
my brother loved this song, he showed me this. Every-time I listen to this song I can’t hold back tears because, my brother and his service dog faith were struck by a car while walking Saturday morning. 12/12/1996 - 3/19/2022 I love you so much kory.
Discovered this artist and song last night, and came back. This 35 year old kid has encapsulated the Velvet Underground sound so much, that I'm starting to think there's reincarnation I'm music. It's amazing. I'm a huge fan already and cann9t wait to catch one of his concerts live.
About a year ago I was having a Late Night Chill vibe in my bedroom after a joint, while Spotify was playing some random songs, and this one started playing. When the lyrics said "take a look in the sky and wonder" i took the advice and started to look to the stars, when a few seconds later a shooting star passed in the sky. It was amazing. The other day i started looking for the song but i never found it again. Today i went out to supermarket and let youtube playing random songs again, and right in the moment i came back home this song was playing, and i knew it was familiar. Replayed the song to find something about looking to the sky and yeah, this was the song. i'll never let this song again!!
I just asked my best friend who I plan on getting married to to let me have this song played at our wedding in the spring because I want to dance with her to this song as we were once beautiful strangers but now we're going to be a beautiful happy couple together!!!

Absolutely beautiful song. I listen to this at least once a day. Wish i could play it on the old Victrola for the days we lose power. Wish you would make more songs with this spiritual touching. Love the " look above the weather.... it's up to you". wow that is powerful. So glad the airbnb used this song in their beautiful commercial. People aren't so strange.

I lived near Bataclan in Paris during this fucking attacks. Thank you very much for this song Kevin. Music and freedom addicts will stay forever beautiful strangers.
I see that. It also reminds me a bit of Jack Johnson, but with more soul.

I drove my wife yesterday to maternity ward with this song on. We were scared, since contractions haven't started yet, but the amniotic fluid was going low. This song gave us comfort that everything will be OK. Today I am waiting for good news.
Got introduced to this tune a few years ago by a Greek lady in a little cottage in Ireland. She had to go home during covid and I left the cottage too. This tune brings me back to that perfect blissful era of my life every single time I hear it. Pure magic. Kevin is actually in Ireland right now as I type this, he just played in the Academy Dublin a couple hours ago. I couldn't make it but I had to come here and have another listen. Back to Cloney cottage with Αλεχάντρα, my beautiful stranger 🙏😇❤️
What a wonderful song! It runs through my head constantly. I've even bookmarked the airbnb commercial, and sent it to my friends and relatives. Kevin's voice is awesome, very Dylanesque. SO SPECIAL!
Love love love this song. Heard it on the airbnb commercial - everytime that commercial comes on I have to stop to watch & listen - then I noticed the album the 'stranger' in the commercial picked out to play so decided to try to find it... here it is! Just wonderful! Thanks Kevin Morby and Airbnb!
I have left my house at work today so I will get in there tomorrow morning to work and get back in touch and let me know what works best to keep it in the class for the first day of the week if we need it thank everyone again love love miss like thank everyone llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllpplpp ppl
Love this I have Terminal Cancer it's classed as a life time condition, But can b controlled with treatment. I dont how long but my partner knows this is the song I want to carry. It's beautiful. It speaks to My soul somehow. I write poetry and song lyrics (it pays treats etc I'm not making millions) but who's written this blows anything I even dream out of the ball part . It's sounds so simple but the song writers ability phenomenal.
This is the first lyric song ever, where my entire bonemarrow and gutfeeling yells to my autistic soul and personality that follows, that this is 100% the unique track thats gonna play on repeat on my funeral. Much love Kevin Morby, youve got a genuin Touch for your wonderful talent of yours. Imagine Kevin if you could take on the feeling that occurs inside of my stimulerad brain and Body, and all thanks to you. It's unique, and the thing that i relate mostly to, is that i love meeting all sort and forms of Beutiful Strangers. I never back a way from a chat with the "Beutiful Strangers" that crosses my state of flow and path, you Will Grow from it, face your fears and talk to a Stranger. From the deepest of my spul Much love to all of you our There. Huggs and huggs, love Nickos 😍❤
Airbnb brought me here. I thought I was about to listen to an old 60's protest song I'd never heard before. There are actually still some young artists out here. What a pleasant surprise!
It's just a song, but I'm sure it will stay with me for the rest of my life. It does me a world of good. Thank you so much! Unable to explain it, there's a "je ne sais quoi"...
Beautiful song- the singing, melody, instruments used... every part. Feel like I'm vacationing on a tropical island somewhere, and I'm in Canada, in winter!
You know how in most songs, even your favourite ones, there’s usually something you like less than the rest? Be it a key change, weird bridge, a lyric that’s slightly jarring etc? There’s not a single aspect of this song that I don’t absolutely love 🤯
I really dislike music being played whilst sitting in a public sauna (hot room)... but TODAY, oh man, they played this track and it really made my day... gorgeous, and the ladies in the background...wonderful
Et pour finir.. Kévin morby ❤️💭 j'ai su que c'était la chanson que j'ai écouté le plus. Bravo 👏👏👏👏💙👍😁 et just après. Warhaus 💜👏👏 je peux le dire.. Bisous 💖💕👍🎤🎶😘😘😘😘😘
That’s so funny that’s there’s soo many people looking for this song because of a commercial. Let me guess Airbnb? Lol great song by the way, this is my 5th time listening it in a day, we’ll in less than 2 hours. This video will blow everywhere soon because of that commercial.
Dedicate this song to a girl, who I miss dearly. She taught me about free love and loving yourself without a question. We met in Edinburgh, if you ever read this comment. Know I miss you
@@MultiSpazzo I kinda expected a more wholesome comment hahahaha.... Stil, @Art Vandelay I feel you bro. Keep your heart pure, man. You'll meet someone.
Go text her you dummy! stop hopin', all successful ppl didn't become so by hoping. She sounds so lovely, How could you just sit here whining and not stay connected with her!?!?
I love when commercials lead you to song that you instantly fall in love with, and songs that make you want to learn how to play them! I'm a musician on the side and a PSW (Personal Support Worker) to make a living. The moment I heard this song in the 'Strange Things Aren't Stange Airbnb' commercial, it made me want to pick up my trusted guitar, and learn how to play it! Beautiful songs like this should be a staple in modern society, to be played at coffee shops, or, by musicians on open mic night!

Gotta give major props to whoever is recommending such awesome songs for commercials these days because this is the 4th one I've had to search for after being captivated by it on my TV during a game. BRAVO! 👏👏👏👏🥰❤️
I have a renewed appreciation for this song in the wake of the tragedies of black lives lost since he first invoked "Freddie Gray". I have loved this song for years, but it now resonates more deeply. Listen while reading the lyrics and think of Freddie, Elijah, Ahmad, George, Breonna. Put yourselves, or your child, mother, father, sister, brother, friend or love in their place. Listen carefully to the words and feel the sheer anguish of all who have fallen, all who loved them, and anyone else Blessed rightly with an emphatic soul and Faith that we are all equal children of God. If that doesn't make you tear up in sadness, recoil in anger, motivate you to try harder, or inspire you to action in defence of another then you should wonder if you have become to numb and no longer hear the crying, gunshots, or doors kicked in. "And if I lose my voice. If I have no choice to be quiet. Won't you sing for me a melody into the night there" Let us strive to give voice to the voiceless and honor the quieted.
This will be seen by very few - Please understand that this is a protest song where all the proceeds were donated to Everytown For Gun Safety. It's a song against gun violence. When he says pray for Paris - He is referring to the mass shooting in Paris. When he speaks of 49 dead - He is referring to the gay nightclub mass shooting in Orlando. When he speaks of Freddie Gray - He is referring to what cops joke about giving a 'suspect' a rough ride where he is handcuffed, put in the back of a van unsecured and driven around recklessly stopping and speeding up to make it a nightmare for the man in the back. Freddie Gray died after his ride from a spinal injury. All 6 officers were never convicted of anything.
It's an awesome, stunning spiritual song. Just make sure you understand what it is saying to you.
thk u
I get that,but I always kinda redefine songs for my selfish reasons.
LYRICS
If you ever hear that thunder
Put your eye to the sky, boy, and wonder
Maybe there's a kingdom above the weather
Oh, and whether you're gonna get our name is up to him
If you ever hear that crying
In the distance like some siren
Maybe there's a singer
With no ring around their little finger
No love
And If I lose my voice
If I have no choice but to go quiet
Won't you sing for me a melody into the night there
Well, if I die too young, if the wolf he comes
Fee-fi-fo-fum
If I die too young, oh, if the locust come
Well then, run, run, run
Free
If you ever hear that gunshot
You may think 'bout what you do but you don't got
Say a prayer, think of mother, I am a rock
If you ever hear that sound now
If the door gets kicked in here, they come now
Think of others, be their cover
I am what they're not
Pray for Paris
They can not scare us
Or stop the music
Your sweet voice, child
Why don't you use it?
If I die too young, or the gunmen come, I'm full of love
So release me, every piece of me, up above
(Up above, ooh ooh ooh)
Love my mama and my papa
Love my sister, can't stand the coppers up in their choppers
Oh, flying overhead, forty-nine dead
Singing, oh, my Lord, come carry me home
Oh, my Lord, come carry me home
I'm singing oh, my God, oh, my Lord
Oh, my God, oh, my Lord
Oh, my God, oh, my Lord
Oh, my Lord
And if I die too young for something I ain't done
Carry my name every day
Oh, I'm sorry
Oh, I'm sorry
Freddie Gray
But sleep easy like baby Jesus in a manger
Oh, sleep easy like little Jesus, beautiful stranger
Oh, beautiful stranger
If I die too young, let all that I've done be remembered
And I'll sleep easy like baby Jesus in his manger
And I'll sleep easy like little Jesus, safe from danger
Carry onward, like some songbird, beautiful stranger
Carry onward, like some songbird, beautiful stranger
Oh, beautiful stranger
thanks !

It's so thought provoking but simple and easy to understand. It's calming to the ears and soul. Thanks Kevin Morby.
By far the best songs I've ever heard. It relaxes the mind and soul!
Just heard this on TV and it is perfection! Feeling Mazzy Star vibes with soul soothing lyrics and voice. The strat playing is OUTSTANDING!!❤❤
This songs got the flow of a 60s folk song. Protesting the war or something. Its a nice change of pace vs anything else on the radio

It's so good to see Kevin make it into the mainstream. He has been in LA playing for sometime.
I may need some intervention here. Honestly I can’t stop listening to this song. I JUST! LOVE! It!!
Can’t explain why this touches me so deeply.
That same thought has been puzzling me to no end as well.
If you ever hear that thunder, put your eye to the sky, boy, and wonder
Maybe there's a kingdom above the weather
Oh, and whether you're gonna get our name is up to him
If you ever hear that crying in the distance like some siren
Maybe there's a singer with no ring around their little finger, no love
And If I lose my voice
If I have no choice but to go quiet
Won't you sing for me a melody into the night there
Well, if I die too young, if the wolf he comes
Fee-fi-fo-fum
If I die too young, oh, if the locust come
Well then, run, run, run
Free
If you ever hear that gunshot, you may think 'bout what you do but you don't got
Say a prayer, think of mother, I am a rock
If you ever hear that sound now
If the door gets kicked in here, they come now
Think of others, be their cover
I am what they're not
Pray for Paris
They cannot scare us
Or stop the music
You got a sweet voice, child
Why don't you use it?
If I die too young, if the gunmen come, I'm full of love
So release me, every piece of me, up above
(Up above)
Love my mama and my papa
Love my sister, can't stand the coppers up in their choppers
Oh, flying overhead, forty-nine dead
Singing, oh, my Lord, come carry me home
Oh, my Lord, come carry me home
I'm singing oh, my God, oh, my Lord
Oh, my God, oh, my Lord
Oh, my God, oh, my Lord
Oh, my Lord
And if I die too young for something I ain't done
Carry my name every day
Oh, I'm sorry
Oh, I'm sorry
Freddie Gray
But sleep easy like baby Jesus in a manger
Oh, sleep easy like little Jesus, beautiful stranger
Oh, beautiful stranger
If I die too young, let all that I've done be remembered
And I'll sleep easy like baby Jesus in his manger
And I'll sleep easy like little Jesus, safe from danger
Carry onward like some songbird, beautiful stranger
Carry onward like some songbird, beautiful stranger
Oh, beautiful stranger
oh my god oh my lord thank you for the lyrics
I lived near Bataclan in Paris during this fucking attacks. Thank you very much for this song Kevin. Music and freedom addicts will stay forever beautiful strangers.
💛

This guy reminds me of the soulful singing from the artist Donovan from the 60's who sang "Season of the Witch.". ❤️
I see that. It also reminds me a bit of Jack Johnson, but with more soul.
I drove my wife yesterday to maternity ward with this song on. We were scared, since contractions haven't started yet, but the amniotic fluid was going low. This song gave us comfort that everything will be OK. Today I am waiting for good news.
Well.. we need an update!
Wow this guy rocks the beat and words are magic and that voice I would die for sounds like bob Dylan fantastic music wow guys what can we say
I so thought it was Bob Dylan too
@@michellelaugie5345 thanks for your comment it does sound so much like Bob Dylan it's a great song .
One of my favorite songs from all songs of the world 🖤
Oh my god! Oh my god! Me too me too! Seems ALOT of us have great taste, we’re ALL BEAUTIFUL STRANGERS!!⭐️⭐️✨✨💋💋
The one time I didn’t skip a TH-cam ad just to hear this song & now I found it. Catchy asl😌
This vibe! This song! Beautiful! 🤍🤍🤍
Got introduced to this tune a few years ago by a Greek lady in a little cottage in Ireland. She had to go home during covid and I left the cottage too. This tune brings me back to that perfect blissful era of my life every single time I hear it. Pure magic. Kevin is actually in Ireland right now as I type this, he just played in the Academy Dublin a couple hours ago. I couldn't make it but I had to come here and have another listen. Back to Cloney cottage with Αλεχάντρα, my beautiful stranger 🙏😇❤️
I love this song. Forever puts a smile on my face 💕😊
Love this song 🎵 my favourite song of 2022. Absolutely amazing 👏
What a wonderful song! It runs through my head constantly. I've even bookmarked the airbnb commercial, and sent it to my friends and relatives. Kevin's voice is awesome, very Dylanesque. SO SPECIAL!
Love love love this song. Heard it on the airbnb commercial - everytime that commercial comes on I have to stop to watch & listen - then I noticed the album the 'stranger' in the commercial picked out to play so decided to try to find it... here it is! Just wonderful! Thanks Kevin Morby and Airbnb!
Heard on a commercial and had to look for it; I love this.
Soothing voice and great lyrics. Very enjoyable song especially in today's world
This was played at my best friends son’s funeral 😢it’s now one of my faves as it reminds me of him…RIP Jacob
youtube randomly brought me here, why I don't know as was listening to old school reggae! I love it when a plan come together 👍🏼
I have left my house at work today so I will get in there tomorrow morning to work and get back in touch and let me know what works best to keep it in the class for the first day of the week if we need it thank everyone again love love miss like thank everyone llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllpplpp ppl
I love this song because of its poetic layers. The music is jive, the lyrics are a prayer.
Love this I have Terminal Cancer it's classed as a life time condition, But can b controlled with treatment. I dont how long but my partner knows this is the song I want to carry. It's beautiful. It speaks to My soul somehow. I write poetry and song lyrics (it pays treats etc I'm not making millions) but who's written this blows anything I even dream out of the ball part .
It's sounds so simple but the song writers ability phenomenal.
Thank you for the like .
This is the first lyric song ever, where my entire bonemarrow and gutfeeling yells to my autistic soul and personality that follows, that this is 100% the unique track thats gonna play on repeat on my funeral.
Much love Kevin Morby, youve got a genuin Touch for your wonderful talent of yours.
Imagine Kevin if you could take on the feeling that occurs inside of my stimulerad brain and Body, and all thanks to you.
It's unique, and the thing that i relate mostly to, is that i love meeting all sort and forms of Beutiful Strangers. I never back a way from a chat with the "Beutiful Strangers" that crosses my state of flow and path, you Will Grow from it, face your fears and talk to a Stranger.
From the deepest of my spul
Much love to all of you our There.
Huggs and huggs, love Nickos 😍❤
Best song to go mainstream in years! Love it! ❣️
I heard it on a commercial as well, I have been looking for it ever since. This song makes the commercial so beautiful.
Airbnb brought me here. I thought I was about to listen to an old 60's protest song I'd never heard before. There are actually still some young artists out here. What a pleasant surprise!
Absolutely love this song 💗 was so happy to hear it in a commercial ☺️
1st exposed to this lovely song about 5 yrs ago from a dear friend...soothing...close my eyes & takes me back...
I just heard this on a super fun commercial. It's captivating!
Me too,heard it in commercial and looked it up. Great song!!
It's just a song, but I'm sure it will stay with me for the rest of my life. It does me a world of good. Thank you so much! Unable to explain it, there's a "je ne sais quoi"...
Heard this on a Air bnb commercial. Makes me want to travel on a gentle warm sunny day to a childhood camping site I haven’t been to in years..
I cannot get this song out of my head… 💛❤️🖤
Me either
Take the phone outta ur hand 🤔
Me too. Killer opening line and an infectious groove.
Beautiful song- the singing, melody, instruments used... every part. Feel like I'm vacationing on a tropical island somewhere, and I'm in Canada, in winter!
Love this song, playing on repeat 🙏
My 4 yr old stops whatever she's doing and takes this in, every time this comes on the tv(air BNB commercial). Great tune
Ain't nothing like old time music ❤️
You know how in most songs, even your favourite ones, there’s usually something you like less than the rest? Be it a key change, weird bridge, a lyric that’s slightly jarring etc? There’s not a single aspect of this song that I don’t absolutely love 🤯
Just heard this for the first time and I was entranced by it. A song to be listened with friends and loved ones for sure❤
What a beautiful and positive message and tune in todays world. Truly a song of love
So powerfull ,soulfull and tremendous lyrics in this song with a perfect melody! R.I.P all of them
I really dislike music being played whilst sitting in a public sauna (hot room)... but TODAY, oh man, they played this track and it really made my day... gorgeous, and the ladies in the background...wonderful
I just saw the commercial and like the song. It's beautiful 🎵
Isn't it weird that AirBnB uses a song about cops shooting black men for its cheerful little ad?
@@gyorgyivoros6709 It's actually about gun violence in general
So beautiful it makes me cry. I just heard it on an Airbnb. Commercial, and had to find it!
What fantastic lyrics and music,the mans a genius.
Real music and words ! Make music great again like this young man has world !!!!!!!!!
Et pour finir.. Kévin morby ❤️💭 j'ai su que c'était la chanson que j'ai écouté le plus. Bravo 👏👏👏👏💙👍😁 et just après. Warhaus 💜👏👏 je peux le dire.. Bisous 💖💕👍🎤🎶😘😘😘😘😘
Thank you beautiful stranger❤
That’s so funny that’s there’s soo many people looking for this song because of a commercial. Let me guess Airbnb? Lol great song by the way, this is my 5th time listening it in a day, we’ll in less than 2 hours. This video will blow everywhere soon because of that commercial.
Dedicate this song to a girl, who I miss dearly. She taught me about free love and loving yourself without a question. We met in Edinburgh, if you ever read this comment. Know I miss you
@@MultiSpazzo I kinda expected a more wholesome comment hahahaha.... Stil, @Art Vandelay I feel you bro. Keep your heart pure, man. You'll meet someone.
@@MultiSpazzo fuck sake man haha.
@@s.u.s.a.n.a no, sorry
@@MultiSpazzo yah i did too
Go text her you dummy! stop hopin', all successful ppl didn't become so by hoping. She sounds so lovely, How could you just sit here whining and not stay connected with her!?!?
I, also heard this on a commercial...it is beautiful....what a melody! Wow!!!
Man....this tune made me cry a little. Brilliant
I’m here thanks to the Air bnb advert. Lovely relaxing track ❤
If 2022 could be a song 🎵 please be this one! Nothing but ✌ & ❤
My beautiful soul. thank you for this beautiful blue magic god bless and may the good spirits surround you
Thanks to the commercial I now have a new song love it ❤️❤️❤️
I love when commercials lead you to song that you instantly fall in love with, and songs that make you want to learn how to play them! I'm a musician on the side and a PSW (Personal Support Worker) to make a living. The moment I heard this song in the 'Strange Things Aren't Stange Airbnb' commercial, it made me want to pick up my trusted guitar, and learn how to play it! Beautiful songs like this should be a staple in modern society, to be played at coffee shops, or, by musicians on open mic night!
LOVE! This song makes me happy! 😍
I had to search for it after seeing the add - at first I thought it was Bob D but this is fantastic I love it!
kevin morby - beautiful strangers lyrics
If you ever hear that thunder, put your eye to the sky, boy, and wonder
Maybe there's a kingdom above the weather
Oh, and whether you're gonna get our name is up to him
If you ever hear that crying in the distance like some siren
Maybe there's a singer with no ring around their little finger, no love
And If I lose my voice
If I have no choice but to go quiet
Won't you sing for me a melody into the night there
Well, if I die too young, if the wolf he comes
Fee-fi-fo-fum
If I die too young, oh, if the locust come
Well then, run, run, run
Free
If you ever hear that gunshot, you may think 'bout what you do but you don't got
Say a prayer, think of mother, I am a rock
If you ever hear that sound now
If the door gets kicked in here, they come now
Think of others, be their cover
I am what they're not
Pray for Paris
They cannot scare us
Or stop the music
You got a sweet voice, child
Why don't you use it?
If I die too young, if the gunmen come, I'm full of love
So release me, every piece of me, up above
(Up above)
Love my mama and my papa
Love my sister, can't stand the coppers up in their choppers
Oh, flying overhead, forty-nine dead
Singing, oh, my Lord, come carry me home
Oh, my Lord, come carry me home
I'm singing oh, my God, oh, my Lord
Oh, my God, oh, my Lord
Oh, my God, oh, my Lord
Oh, my Lord
And if I die too young for something I ain't done
Carry my name every day
Oh, I'm sorry
Oh, I'm sorry
Freddie Gray
But sleep easy like baby Jesus in a manger
Oh, sleep easy like little Jesus, beautiful stranger
Oh, beautiful stranger
If I die too young, let all that I've done be remembered
And I'll sleep easy like baby Jesus in his manger
And I'll sleep easy like little Jesus, safe from danger
Carry onward like some songbird, beautiful stranger
Carry onward like some songbird, beautiful stranger
Oh, beautiful stranger
So powerfull ,soulfull and tremendous lyrics in this song with a perfect melody! R.I.P all of them
OMG ,ik hoorde dit midden in de nacht op radio 1 NL ,het was zo goed zo een heerlijk rustig geluid ,zo mooi !!
Very powerful and touching lyrics..
Veil danke.
Get on in* not get our name
Gotta give major props to whoever is recommending such awesome songs for commercials these days because this is the 4th one I've had to search for after being captivated by it on my TV during a game. BRAVO! 👏👏👏👏🥰❤️
I have a renewed appreciation for this song in the wake of the tragedies of black lives lost since he first invoked "Freddie Gray". I have loved this song for years, but it now resonates more deeply. Listen while reading the lyrics and think of Freddie, Elijah, Ahmad, George, Breonna. Put yourselves, or your child, mother, father, sister, brother, friend or love in their place. Listen carefully to the words and feel the sheer anguish of all who have fallen, all who loved them, and anyone else Blessed rightly with an emphatic soul and Faith that we are all equal children of God.
If that doesn't make you tear up in sadness, recoil in anger, motivate you to try harder, or inspire you to action in defence of another then you should wonder if you have become to numb and no longer hear the crying, gunshots, or doors kicked in.
"And if I lose my voice. If I have no choice to be quiet. Won't you sing for me a melody into the night there"
Let us strive to give voice to the voiceless and honor the quieted.
This is what was missing here. A deep and relevant comment. "Think of other, be their cover". Thank you for that.
Amen.
