The Sun Also Rises

THE SUN ALSO RISES
AND WEATHER REPRISES
TO COLOR THE IRIS
IN THE EYES OF THE DAWN
REMEMBER TO PRAY
THINGS THAT OUR
MOTHERS AND FATHERS ALL SAY
BUT WE’RE HOLDING ON
TO THE STORIES OF THOSE
WHO ARE COLD AND ARE GONE
BEEN GONE FOR SO LONG
YET THE SUN ALSO RISES
AND WEATHER REPRISES
TO COLOR THE IRIS
IN THE EYES OF THE DAWN
AND AS MORNING IS OPENED
FORTUNE IS BROKEN
THE NEW LIGHT IS HOPING
THAT THE DARK IT BE GONE
WE SEEK AND WE SAVE
WORDS FROM THE ONES
WHO SEEM SURE AND SEEM BRAVE
BUT THEIR NIGHT COMES AS SOON
AS THE ONE WHERE WE HIDE
FROM THE SIGHT OF THE MOON
AND ASSUME THAT OUR STARS
ARE ALL WRONG
TELLING STORIES OF THOSE
WHO HAVE GONE
BEEN GONE FOR SO LONG
YET THE SUN ALSO RISES
AND WEATHER REPRISES
TO COLOR THE IRIS
IN THE EYES OF THE DAWN
AND AS MORNING IS OPENED
FORTUNE IS BROKEN
THE NEW LIGHT IS HOPING
THAT THE DARK IT BE
GONE FROM THE EYES OF THE DAWN

Holy Ghost

EVERY EVENING I HAVE SEEN
HAS BEEN LONG AND HAS BEEN LEAN
FROM BACK WHEN MAMA COOKED HER HOPE
INTO THE FAMILY PAN
AND WASHED IT OUT WITH HER FEET IN THE SAND
PAPA SOLD HIS FEAR INTO BARREN CLAY
BROTHERS AND SISTERS FADED AWAY
BUT I REMAINED HERE REVERENTLY
CAUSE THE HOLY GHOST GOT PLANS FOR ME
EVERY MORNING I HAVE READ
THE ONLY BOOK THAT'S BETTER THAN BREAD
FOR PUTTING BACK A POWER TO A WITHERING HAND
AND BURYING THE BURDEN OF A WANDERING MAN
EVEN THOUGH MY PATH HAS BEEN SO HARD TO FIND
IT'S BEEN COVERED IN THE EARTH
BEEN COVERED IN THE VINE
I KNOW THAT THE WAY IS THE REMEDY
YES THE HOLY GHOST GOT PLANS FOR ME
KEEP YOUR EYES TO THE SON
WE ARE SEEKERS EVERY ONE
AND THOUGH OUR TIME IS SURE TO END IN ELEGY
FEAR NO DEATH BY BEAST OF MAN
FOR THE SHORES OF THE PROMISED LAND
THOSE REPENTANT AND REDEEMED
ARE BOUND TO SEE
AND EVEN THOUGH MY BLESSINGS THEY MAY BE FEW
THERE'S GOT TO BE SOME GOOD WORKING LEFT TO DO
SO I WILL RAISE THE REVERIE
YES THE HOLY GHOST GOT PLANS FOR ME
KEEP YOUR EYES TO THE SUN
RAISE YOUR VOICES EVERY ONE
TILL THEY'RE RINGING OUT OVER EVERY CORNER
OF STONE AND SEA
FOR SOON THE CHARIOT WILL ROLL ON DOWN THE LANE
ANGELS ALL HOLLERING OUT THY NAME
TO PLEASE THE EAR OF HIM WITH RAISING VERITY
EVEN THOUGH MY BLESSINGS THEY MAY BE FEW
THERE'S GOT TO BE SOME GOOD WORKING LEFT TO DO
SO I WILL WAIT HERE REVERENTLY
CAUSE THE HOLY GHOST GOT PLANS FOR ME
I SAID THAT EVEN THOUGH MY BLESSINGS THEY MAY BE FEW
THERE'S GOT TO BE SOME GOOD WORKING LEFT TO DO
SO I WILL RAISE THE REVERIE
YES THE HOLY GHOST GOT PLANS FOR ME

HE’S GONNA LIGHT THE WAY TO HEAVEN
FOREVER
GOOD LORD
HE’S GONNA LIGHT THE WAY TO HEAVEN
FOR ME
SATAN IS THE DECEIVER
AND HE’LL CATCH YOU IN THE DARK
LEAD YOU DOWN TO THE RIVER
FOR TO DROWN YOUR HOLY SPARK
BUT IF YOU LOOK INTO THE SHADOW
AND YOU SEE A GOLDEN LIGHT
YOU BETTER KNOW IT IS YOUR SAVIOR
COMING FOR TO LEAD YOU THROUGH THE NIGHT
HE’S GONNA LIGHT THE WAY TO HEAVEN
FOREVER
GOOD LORD
HE’S GONNA LIGHT THE WAY TO HEAVEN
FOR ME
IF YOU’RE IN THE VALLEY OF THE SHADOW OF DEATH
AND YOU FEEL THE DEVIL CREEPING
AT YOUR BACK WITH ICY BREATH
JUST LOOK UP TO THE MOUNTAIN
FOR A LANTERN IN HAND
AND KNOW IT IS YOUR SAVIOR
COMING FOR TO LEAD YOU TO THE PROMISED LAND
HE’S GONNA LIGHT THE WAY TO HEAVEN
FOREVER
GOOD LORD
HE’S GONNA LIGHT THE WAY TO HEAVEN
FOR ME

I’M GOING HOME TO THE VALLEY SOMEDAY
I’M GOING HOME TO THE VALLEY
AND I AIN'T GONNA DILLY
NO I AIN'T GONNA DALLEY
I’M GOING TO THE VALLEY SOMEDAY
I’M GOING OVER THE RIVER SOMEDAY
I’M GOING OVER THE RIVER
FOR TO MEET MY MAKER
THAT SWEET LIFE GIVER
I’M GOING OVER THE RIVER SOMEDAY
WELL YOU CAN THROW MY BODY
IN A GARBAGE CAN
SELL MY CAR
TO A JUNKYARD MAN
TAKE MY SEAT
AT THE CORNER BAR
AND LOOK ON HIGH
FOR A BRAND NEW STAR
I’M GOING UP ON THE MOUNTAIN SOMEDAY
I’M GOING UP ON THE MOUNTAIN
FOR TO REST MY FEET
IN THE GOLDEN FOUNTAIN
UP ON OVER THAT MOUNTAIN SOMEDAY
WELL YOU CAN EAT MY FOOD
YOU CAN READ MY MAIL
TAKE ALL MY JEWELRY
IN A GARDEN PAIL
YOU CAN SAW AND HAMMER
EVERYTHING I OWN
BUT I’LL BE THERE
BY THE GOLDEN THRONE
I’M GOING HOME TO THE VALLEY SOMEDAY
I’M GOING HOME TO THE VALLEY
AND I AIN'T GONNA DILLY
NO I AIN'T GONNA DALLEY
I’M GOING TO THE VALLEY SOMEDAY
