I kneel and taste of my salvation
the congregation cheers,

no more time to waste on
time I wasted once before.
I was that prohibition order
that I once tore from the door,
several hundred thousand beers
and I wonder now what for.

Salvation tastes of sweat and tears,
all my years rolled up in one,
and the future lies before me,

I rise
and move along
