Amos's Creek

In the pulpit Sunday mornings 
Unto the flock he speaks 
A  reflective man of genius 
During the other days of the week 

Waded  the rivers of the Nam 
Came to know the inheritance of the meek 
A gentler soul you'll never know 
Until you cross Amos bout his Creek 

One good turn deserves another 
And eye is truly for an eye 
Been on his hill many a year now 
And on this hill he will lie 

A pastor a teacher of all things good 
From one who follows his plan 
A shepherd to a good Gods graces
A tiller of the promised land 

Waded the rivers of  Nam
Came to know the inheritance of the meek 
A gentler soul you'll never know 
Until you cross Amos bout his Creek 

A pa paw to the grandchildren 
A daddy to his girls 
A husband to his one true love 
A miracle of this world 

Ought to be more men like him 
Barely a terse word will he speak 
A gentler soul you'll never know 
But don't go crossing  Amos bout his Creek 
No.. Best not cross Amos bout his Creek
