Story behind the song
Written for Christmas at Gram's, An Advent Story. A song for Nabal the donkey, when he was bought from a cruel master and became gentle Joseph's servant.
Lyrics
Verse 1:
My old master was a tyrant,
He was wicked, cold and cruel
He beat me almost daily, and he called me a fool.
He thought that I was useless,
Just an unwitting tool,
Called me stupid, He called me a fool.
Verse 2:
My new master is a diamond,
His eyes are full of care
He paid for me with love,
And what he has he shares
And I work for him with joy,
For my burden is light
Yet I'm carrying the king of kings
Through the night.
Chorus:
I'd be a fool to go back to the life I had before
For my old master doesn't own
this servant anymore.
If he ever comes a calling,
I'd just kick him in the head
And tell him, my new master owns me instead.
Verse 3:
You know, you used to be like that,
A servant of sin
Till the day that Jesus bought you, and you Invited Him in.
And no man can serve two masters,
But it seems to me we try
For we leave the Lord of Love for sin's pig sty.
Chorus: (2 times)
You'd be a fool to go back to the life you had before
Back to sin, and feeling guilty, being rich and feeling poor!
If sin ever comes a calling,
You just kick it in the head
And tell it, your new master owns you instead.
