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
