Wayne Watson - Perception lyrics

They saw Me eatin' At the table with the sinners Tax collectors The harlots and the thieves Sometimes I wonder Should I be more careful 'Bout what people are thinking What they choose to believe They saw Me talking To that woman at the fountain I heard 'em whisper "What's He doing with her?" Guess I can suffer In people's estimation For the transformation Of one sinner to occur Not losin' sleep over some bad perception What people believe to be true I'm gonna risk my reputation for the harvest The fields are ready Yeah, there's a lot to do They'll see Me crucified Hanging on a mountain They'll say, I guess He's just a criminal too I hope they're listening To hear Me when I whisper Father, forgive them They don't know what they do Not losin' sleep over some bad perception What people believe to be true I'm gonna risk my reputation for the harvest The fields are ready There's a lot to do The fields are ready There's a lot to do A lot to do The fields are ready, oh Not losin' sleep over some bad perception What people believe to be true I'm gonna risk my reputation for the harvest Those fields are ready Yeah, there's a lot to do Yeah, those fields are ready There's a lot to do Ooh, we work the field of souls Yeah, there's a lot to do Oh-oh-oh-whoa...
