Said I'm scared, Lord I'm scared, I'm terrified.
Never been much on religion,
But I sure enough would like to hear You call.
I'm scared Lordy Lord, I'm shakin', I'm petrified.
Never been much on religion,
But I sure enough just fell down on my knees.

Heard the choir singin',
Something about good will toward men
And even sleepin' in heavenly peace.
Stopped by to see Saint Thomas,
On a cold and dreary New York afternoon.
Something in the air was oh so rare,
I don't know what it was
But I know that it's still right there.

And I'm scared Lordy Lord, I'm shakin', I'm terrified.
Never been much on religion,
But I sure enough just fell down on my knees.

Livin' in confusion.
Searching for truth that I never found,
I needed something I could really believe.

Looking toward the heavens
On a dark and stormy winter afternoon.
Something in the air was oh so rare,
I'm not really sure what it was
But I know for sure that it's still right there.

And I'm scared.
Hey hey hey hey hey he-hey.
Just as terrified.
Never been much on religion,
But I sure enough just fell down on my knees.
Whoa oh oh oh whoa oh oh.

I'm scared, You know I'm shakin'.
I'm layin' awake thinkin' about it now,
Just as petrified.
Never been much on religion,
But I sure enough would like to hear You call.
Come on now, give me a sign You're listening to me.
You hear me talkin', You hear me cryin'.
It's confusing to me, Lord I'm terrified.
Never been much on religion,
But I sure enough just fell down on my knees.
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh, yeah.
