My eyes were open
My head was clear
My heart was thumping
'Cause I knew I could hear
The strangest feeling
In my heart I knew
I had something to say
I had something to do
I had the strangest feeling
Helping of love coming on me
When I met her at the station
I was blind, Lord, but now I can see
She wore white linen
She had a wide smile
And her feet were so worn
From walking long miles, yeah
She helped people that no one else helped
She said "Get up, stand up and be your own self."
You've got the helping, healing
Strength of love coming on you
So be loving
Be wholesome
Be strong
And for God's sake be true
Be true
And I said "Lord, can you help me, help me?"
She said "Be strong, be as brave as you can
Don't fear no woman and don't fear no great man."
The last thing she said before she went on her way
She said "There's no right, no wrong, no one to blame
No blame, no."
