Flesh and blood people
Underneath heaven’s steeple
See earthen cripples
Do we really see?
People are not really free
We just let it be . . .
Do we pass on by?
Whistle and look at the sky
As we say ‘goodbye’
Flesh and blood people
Underneath heaven’s steeple
See earthen cripples
Do we really see?
People are not really free
We just let it be . . .
Do we pass on by?
Whistle and look at the sky
As we say ‘goodbye’
To take another by the hand
In caring love with no demand,
And to bolster the trembling heart
Is truly an heavenly art;
To take the low part of service
Is to then live in high purpose
And the reward remains wordless,
Indescribable in richness. . .
