Oh, Oh Deep water |
|
Black, and cold like the night |
|
I stand with arms wide open |
|
I've run a twisted mile |
|
I'm a stranger |
|
in the eyes of the Maker |
|
I could not see |
|
for 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 |
|
My body is bent and broken |
|
by long and dangerous sleep |
|
I can 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 |
|
burning in the eyes of the Maker |
|
oh river rise from your sleep.... |
