Can't Hurt My Soul Lyrics

The other morning, I was walking along the lane

When a neighbor stepped up to see

He said, "Buddy, how'd you get to be so strange?"

I said, "It's the way that God made me."

He said, "Anyway, you're headed straight to Hell,"

And he elbowed me aside

I straightened up and said to myself, "Oh, well

The most he could hurt was my outside."

Because you can't hurt my soul

No, you – you can't hurt my soul

You can tear me up and tear me down

But this child of God has been around

I know I'm holy and I'm whole

And you can't hurt my soul

No, you can't hurt my soul

Whenever anybody tells me I'm full of sin

Just for being me

I remind them that the Kingdom of God is within

And actually I'm being Godly

So, you can't hurt my soul

No, you – you can't hurt my soul

You can tear me up and tear me down

But this child of God has been around

I know I'm holy and I'm whole

And you can't hurt my soul

No, you can't hurt my soul

You can try and try with all your might

But you can't hurt love and you can't hurt light

And you can't hurt my soul

No, you – you can't hurt my soul

You can tear me up, tear me down

But this child of God he's been around

I know I'm holy and I'm whole

And you can't hurt my soul

No, you – you can't hurt my soul

I said, You can't hurt my soul

No, you – you can't my soul

No, you – you can't my soul

I said, You – you can't hurt my soul

No, you – you can't my soul

No, you – you can't my soul

No, you – you can't my soul

No, you – you can't my soul

No, you can't
