Sing to me,..O my Soul

by @SoulSurvivor

Sing to me, oh my soul... Night's tucked me in Its soft wool blanket The stars have kissed My tears away I lie here ready And awaiting For the end of This life's day... Sing to me, oh my Savior! Sing to me, oh my soul! I am through with All my hardships My life's tale Has been told. I am waiting For a rising My final rest To so acquire I let this flute of Bones go silent I see Chariots of Fire. I have moved 10,000 mountains In this life I've Walked the earth And if you're counting The equator I have run Its very girth. I have seen 10,000,000 starships Taking off Behind my eyes I have heard The screaming Children I have witnessed Hell disguised... [chorus] If you don't think There is a devil Look into the Face of fear Look into a Mother's eyes When her children Go to war Look into the Maw of "justice" Jingoistic Jaundiced JOKE See the planes Of Hiroshima Cast The Bomb and SMELL THE SMOKE [chorus] BRIDGE: I lie here with My blood a'soaking Into barren, Rocky ground Soon the Rose will Be a'growing The sweetest e'r To be found...
