[00:00.000]The Selfishness in Man - Ricky Skaggs
[00:13.230]I saw a little beam of sunlight
[00:19.290]Steal across a purple sky
[00:24.800]And bend down to kiss a rosebud
[00:31.480]Oh it made me wanna cry
[00:37.230]To think that I had been permitted
[00:43.060]To see a part of nature's plan
[00:48.760]Oh there's nothing that stands out
[00:53.690]More than the selfishness in man
[01:01.740]Little children painting pictures
[01:07.300]Of the birds and apple trees
[01:12.290]Oh why can't the grown up people
[01:19.190]Have the faith of one of these
[01:25.150]And to think those tiny fingers
[01:31.100]Might become a killer's hand
[01:36.240]Oh there's nothing that stands out more
[01:43.220]Than the selfishness in man
[01:49.710]Why can't we see the folly
[01:55.450]And the uselessness of hate
[02:01.200]Love could lead to understanding
[02:07.450]Maybe it's not loo late
[02:13.190]Then perhaps in his great wisdom
[02:18.960]We might learn to understand
[02:24.170]Then there'd be no shame or sorrow
[02:31.190]And no selfishness in man
[03:01.650]Why can't we see the folly
[03:07.010]And the uselessness of hate
[03:13.100]Love could lead to understanding
[03:19.430]Maybe it's not loo late
[03:25.010]Then perhaps in his great wisdom
[03:30.980]We might learn to understanding
[03:36.530]Then there'd be no shame or sorrow
[03:43.090]And no selfishness in man
