I fell asleep out in my Father's garden
low I dreamed I roamed
I dreamed I was alone
I fell straight through the garden floor
and hit the grounds of war
My Father standing over said
"I don't know what you see, My Dear
but I will keep you safe while you are sleeping."
Knelt and whispered in my ear
as I lay sweating fevered
He said "Babe, I want you to know
wherever you may think you roam
you're always but right here with me.
Never alone.
You're right here at home."
And in my dream my head I turned
but saw nothing so I returned
to spinning on my spinning-wheel my sin
a cloak so heavy might conceal
from everything and everything within... me
And I rode ten-billion horses 'round the world
as it collapsed beneath my feet
and I was sure that I was dead
He said "STOP and listen, my Son!
Whatever you may think you've done
you've always been right here with me.
Never alone. Never alone.
Now in my dream I dropped down to my knees
and I began to weep
I knew I was asleep
and that the world I would unmake
was mine to shake and wake.
Just like that my fever passed
the path that I was steered was clear
and I knew nothing in my dream
could harm me
A tear fell from my Fathers grin
a stream of love flowed out of Him
onto me now I offer it to you
Because He said,
"Babe, I want you to know
whatever you may think you owe-
you owe only this to the others
now follow your Brother.
GO walk with them
laugh with them
talk with them
run with them
comfort them
forgive them
each one
Go wake up my Son!
