The Mark Song

This song is based on Marshall's interesting and touching spiritual  conversion, an event that profoundly influenced Mark Wilson's spiritual life.  The lyrics alone may seem strange, like our friend Mark Wilson, but the edgy  folk sounds of the song complete the lyrics, making it an enjoyable piece.

I hope all FOM's enjoy it!

The Mark Song

by Jeffrey D. Wagner

Verse:

Everybody dance, I said

Everybody dance

Even if you fall to the floor

At least you took a chance

I'm just a humble man

But at least I don't pretend...To

Be someone I'm not

I just hope then fold my hands

Pre-Chorus:

You can't take away how I feel right now

You cannot change how I feel

I know I might seem strange to you

But my love and faith...are for real

Chorus:

Mark my words and read my mind

I saw something in your eyes

Demons flew away from you

On that February night

My friend Dave Patten noticed a change

Even Costello stopped and praised

Marshall became a Christian that day

Yeah, Marshall became a Christian that day

Verse:

Some say I'm lazy, crazy

And that I act like I'm 17

Others think I'm kind and cute

Others think that I'm just mean

I never meant to offend you

I'm just trying to spread the word

No I'm not some holy roller

I'm just trying to do some good

Repeat Pre-Chorus and Chorus

Bridge:

I had a dream

and this light beam was touchin' my face

We were standing around this dinner table

Holding hands and saying grace

Then this voice popped into my head

It told me to let go

It released me from my fear of death

And my agonies and woes

Repeat Pre-Chorus and Chorus
