Jacob and the Ocean

Robert and Richard Wills, 1971?

Jacob arise, and open your eyes

It's the Lord that's calling you

To open your eyes

You've spent too many dreams trying to prove

It's not you they're calling to

Giving more of yourself

Do you feel the pain is washed away some more?

Jacob be good, for you know that you could be the king someday

Don't run away

We've seen too many tears cried for the one

Who could bring us all back to the Sunday

Morning after the rain

Do you feel the pain is washed away some more?

Ocean swells, the shoreline shrinks The sands are washed, the boulders drink The sun is rising, the mist is deep As all the earth awakes from sleep Here and now, the world breathes As a living creature As a living creature Being born again The thundrous quiet, As breakers roar Has calmed the Earth since all before Here and now, the world breathes As a living creature Being born again Alive, alive, alive--hive!

Do you feel the pain is washed away some more?
