Red Sea Affair - Plantation lyrics

Send down seeds from your birds in heaven So we can harvest them Send down seeds from your birds in heaven So we can harvest them Send down seeds from your birds in heaven So we can harvest them Send down seeds from your birds in heaven So we can harvest them I am quite a pitiful old man (My skin is rich and wearing thin) My work never seems to be completed (I love this life that You have given) Crawling along this broken earth (My face is scraped from pushing through the dirt) My task is quite simple To plant the seed for the harvest I will keep on sewing [sowing] With this needle and thread As I drudge my bones along I weave my needle in and out of the soil Seeds are strung along the ... Of the piece of thread following behind me My hand goes down A lot more than ... Here come your ravens Swooping in from the heavens They've got more seeds for your servant But where's the water? What's your plan? Three birds come down Two have the seeds One looks so strange It carries a drop of water Which it lets go to fall into my hand ... immediately swells in my hand to the size of my head It keeps on growing and taking form Until it finally turns into another man He opened His eyes And out of the heavens came a voice saying He was here to help me He opened his mouth and out came water Spraying like a fountain, it sprinkled on the ground where i had just been sowing And the water seeped down to the dirt Bright green leaves pushed through the rich brown soil A burst of joy went through my entire body Everywhere I sowed he was sure to follow Behind me watering where my piece of steel weaved Not alone anymore We're waiting for Your entry I could hardly sow fast For as the water hit the seeds The plants immediately shot right up out of the ground The stalks all vertically tall and they are ... be around ... Stemming off of each one I felt a whisper On the back of my neck In a cool breeze It said, "Good job my faithful servant" But on its tail was a strong burst of wind Gushing the crops of men It touched the mouth of everyone Then they opened up their eyes Took their first breath and the wind was gone They climbed ... They all had tools in their hands They were equipped for this work Now I can rest, my job is done You give us life So we sow You into others We'll die one day and see You face to face You give us life So we sow You into others We'll die one day and see You face to face --- "In frustration I cried out, 'Why am I here?' And I heard a voice answer from one of the frames, 'To love Me.' When i looked into the frame, it wasn't my image. It was one more perfect than my reflection could ever be. Just the sight of Him overwhelmed me with joy because I knew He was the only one who could save me."
