Johnny Cash

John R. "Johnny" Cash (February 26, 1932 – September 12, 2003), was an American singer-songwriter, actor, and author, who has been called one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century. Although he is primarily remembered as a country music icon, his songs and sound spanned many other genres including rockabilly and rock and roll—especially early in his career—as well as blues, folk, and gospel. This crossover appeal led to Cash being inducted in the Country Music Hall of Fame, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and Gospel Music Hall of Fame. more »

Last night I dreamed
An angel came
He took my hand
He called my name
He bid me look
The other way
I saw a man
I heard him say

He said if I be lifted up
I'll draw all men to me
He turned and then
I saw the nail-scarred hand
That bled for me
I touched the hem of his garment
That fell round him there
My life, my heart, I gave
My soul was in his care

When I awoke
My heart beat so
And in the dark
I saw a glow
This was no dream
He turned my way
Again I heard
My saviour say

He said if I be lifted up
I'll draw all men to me
He turned and then
I saw the nail-scarred hand
That bled for me
I touched the hem of his garment
That fell 'round him there
My life, my heart, I gave
My soul was in his care
(In his care)
