marching on the wind
Marching on the Wind
by R
the trees know about
the curse
the atmosphere knows what's worse
the clouds are gathering
for a fearful storm
the horizon sees the world's sin
and where the beginnings of it begin
and a heavy heaven arrives;
marching on the wind
It's a day the prophets said
before the rising of the dead
you can hear the flutes
and pipers in the lead
from a time before Time began
for every child of man
there was plan that was planned for marching on the wind
Canada had not a clue
Buenos Aires came unglued
There was pointing, fainting ; others laughed
and danced
Some gave thanks
Some offered prayers
Some were caught up in the air
Some joined the angels marching on the wind
So rejoice you gentle souls
As the mystery unfolds
You see you can forgo your disbelief
From the West then
to the East
They will see the Prince of Peace
as the least of these
come marching on the wind...
