Give me a canvas to paint on
And I'll paint a valley
That looks down on the highest mountain
Give me a canvas to paint on
And I'll paint a scene
Of some people who know what I mean
When I say
You gotta love justice
You gotta seek mercy
And you gotta walk humbly with your maker
Give me some parchment to write on
And I'll write a book only one page long
Give me some parchment to write on
And I'll tell a tale
About a man who knew what I meant when I said
You gotta love justice you gotta seek mercy
And you gotta walk humbly with your maker
