Oh, oh, deep water |
|
Black and cold like the night |
|
I stand with arms wide open |
|
I've run a twisted line |
|
I'm a stranger in the eyes of the Maker |
|
I could not see |
|
For the fog in my eyes |
|
I could not feel |
|
For the fear in my life |
|
And from across the great divide |
|
In the distance I saw a light |
|
Of John Baptist |
|
Walking to me with the Maker |
|
My body, my body is bent |
|
And broken by long and dangerous sleep |
|
I can't work the fields of Abraham |
|
And turn my head away |
|
I'm not a stranger in the hands of the Maker |
|
Brother John, have you seen |
|
The homeless daughters |
|
Standing here with broken wings |
|
I have seen the flaming swords |
|
There over East of Eden |
|
Burning in the eyes of the Maker |
|
Burning in the eyes of the Maker |
|
Burning in the eyes of the Maker |
|
Oh, river rise from your sleep |
