the president sang amazing grace - joan baez lyrics
[verse]
a young man came to a house of prayer
they did not ask what brought him there
he was not friend, he was not kin
but they opened the door and let him in
and for an hour the stranger stayed
he sat with them and seemed to pray
but then the young man drew a gun
and k!lled nine people, old and young
in charleston in the month of june
the mourners gathered in a room
the president came to speak some words
and the cameras rolled and the nation heard
[chorus]
but no words could say what must be said
for all the living and the dead
so on that day and in that place
the president sang amazing grace
the president sang amazing grace
[verse]
we argued where to place the blame
on one man’s hate or our nation’s shame
some sickness of the mind or soul
and how the wounds might be made whole
[chorus]
but no words could say what must be said
for all the living and the dead
so on that day and in that place
the president sang amazing grace
my president sang amazing grace
