Story to tell

words and music: © Irene Bom

 



1. Riverbank wrestlers, you seem well-matched
Jacob can take it, on the chin,
He won’t give in till the thin light of morning
Jacob’s got stamina
He will go far, he will go far.

CHORUS:
He is, he is, he is, he is a believer
With a story to tell.

2. How are you brother? Are you impressed?
Jacob is coming, past is past
Now at last you can cast it behind you
Jacob is out to bless
To fix the mess, to fix the mess.

(Repeat Chorus)

3. Shuffle on Jacob, though forced to limp
Jacob is smiling, all is well,
The past was hell but the spell has been broken
Jacob is going home
That much I know, that much I know.

(Repeat Chorus)

BRIDGE:
I see Jacob limping this way
I hear he calls himself Israel these days: Israel

(Repeat Chorus)
