It Seems Nobody Wants to…
By Vic & Eva Zarley
I (Vic) was finger picking out a new unusually bluesy tune that had just dropped into my lap one afternoon as I sat in our yard just outside the RV we were living in. I looked up to see Eva just returning from work as she drove down our long, 1/8 mile dirt driveway. I didn't know her window was open and had just finished scatting the tune. As she drove up, she shouted out the window, "I've got words" and she quickly wrote them down. Amazingly they fit the tune perfectly (and I didn't think she had had a chance to hear the entire melody).
I attribute this song to God who used both of us to birth this song utlimately, of course, for His glory.
It seems nobody wants to walk like Jesus no more
It seems nobody wants to walk like Jesus no more
People living so selfishly
Judging one another, endlessly
They don’t want to love one another no more
It seems nobody wants to talk like Jesus no more
It seems nobody wants to talk like Jesus no more
Throwin’ curses like dynamite
Let me tell ya that it just ain’t right
Folks don’t want to bless each other no more
It seems nobody wants to act like Jesus no more
It seems nobody wants to act like Jesus no more
They don’t want to have a cross to bear
They’re always cryin’ how life ain’t fair
None here that’s willin’ to suffer no more
It seems nobody wants to love like Jesus no more
It seems nobody wants to love like Jesus no more
They don’t give out water and bread
They got no mercy for the walkin’ dead
Got no compassion for sinners no more
It seems nobody wants to pray to Jesus no more
It seems nobody wants to pray to Jesus no more
People busy as they can be
How’s a spirit gonna get set free
Nobody got time for the Savior no more
Don’t be weary, get on your knees
Follow Jesus or your heart will freeze
Let’s not be grievin’ God’s Spirit no more
