a picture of jesus - nancy moore lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
on a journey through the mountains of virginia
i stopped a while to visit with a friend
she ran the country store like her daddy had before
nothing much had changed since way back then

[verse 2]
i stood looking at a wall of faded pictures
some of them beginning to turn brown
john and uncle jim up there with loretta lynn
and everybody who had been through town

[chorus]
pictures on the wall famous people one and all
their pictures were hanging on the wall

[verse 3]
among them all i saw the face of jesus
with the big celеbrities we know so well
whеn i asked her why she gave me this reply
she said that’s a story that i love to tell

[verse 4]
she said it was a year ago come sunday
an old man with a bible came to call
he said do you love jesus she said yes sir
but he just looked up sadly at the wall
[chorus]
pictures on the wall famous people on the wall
no pictures of jesus on the wall

[verse 5]
full of shame she ran to get a picture
she put jesus in the middle of the store
she turned to thank the stranger for his wisdom
there was just a patch of sunlight on the floor

[chorus]
pictures on the wall famous people one and all
a picture of jesus on the wall
