Born to open for mankind nature's door |
|
A life known by a few |
|
And those who knew that shared |
|
Their knowledge fewer cared about what plants could do |
|
For most felt it was mad to conceive |
|
That plants thought, felt, and moved quite like we |
|
But with instruments |
|
Bose would devise |
|
Would take science itself by a surprise, so |
|
On we go to where who knows |
|
To a place where there's still non-believers |
|
What will it take for heaven sakes |
|
For those who find what's real too hard to believe in |
|
It's that same old story again |
|
Born of slaves who died too soon to realize |
|
The need his life would be |
|
Selflessly he gave |
|
His wisdom to a way where first no minds would see |
|
He said, "If farm land was to be richWe must plant crops to replenish it" |
|
But it took him persuasion and tests |
|
To convince them |
|
Canver's way was best, so |
|
On we go to where who knows |
|
To a place where there's still non-believers |
|
What will it take for heaven sakes |
|
For those who find what's real too hard to believe in |
|
It's that same old story again |
