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 |
|
From across the great divide, in the distance I saw a light |
|
John baptist walking to me with the maker |
|
So 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 there 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 |
