Lyrics Merle Haggard

Merle Haggard

The Seeker

I am a seeker a poor simple creature

There is none weaker than I am

I am a seeker and you are a teacher

You are a reacher so reach down

Reach out and lead me guide me and keep me

In the shelter of your care each day

I am a seeker and you are a keeper

You are a leader won't you show me the way.

I am a vessel that's empty and useless

I am a bad seed that fell by the way

I am a loser that wants to be a winner

You are my last hope don't turn me away

I am a seeker a poor simple creature

There is none weaker than I am

I am a seeker and you are a teacher

You are a reacher so reach down.

Reach out and lead me guide me and keep me

In the shelter of your care each day

I am a seeker and you are a keeper

You are a leader won't you show me the way

Hey you are a mountain from which there flows a fountain

So let its water wash my sins away

Cause I am a seeker and you are a teacher

You are a leader won't you teach me the way...
