Jay Kirkpatrick - Desert Father lyrics

When we were young We walked where we wanted to Life was ours And now we've grown old We go where we're told The Lord's Spirit calls He's singing Follow my road to sorrow and joy Be intertwined And find All things are under my wings And rise Given time Oh my Brother sun, sister moon All children of light Fly around the world Let the glory be unfurled All things are made new We're marching on To a spirit song That no man can cage In lands of dead wood That reject the good From our old Father's hands But we run free And weep gracefully In a world Dark and cold Hold on All you Who wait by the blue shores For Him To part the water Desert Father Show us a new way The impossible dream Through the deep and the unseen Carry us home
