My King

I met a Cosmic Cowboy and He’s ridin' the starry range
He’s a supernatural plowboy.
He’s dressed up kind of strange
At first you know, I didn’t even see him;
Hey, I was out there on the run
But that old hat that He’s wearin', it’s shinin' brighter than the sun
And when my eyes adjusted, to the flashin' of his smile
Oh, I saw his invitation.
He said, «Come on, Barry, we’ll go ridin' for awhile»
(Cowboy of the light, shootin' rainbows through the night)
And you know we rode along together, for more than half a day
Right through the changin' weather;
the sky was all turning gray
And the chilly winds were blowin', and the cold was cutting deep
Then it started snowing, the trail was gettin' steep
I was just about to turn around, and head on back down the way we came
Somehow without a sound, I heard Him call my name
(Cowboy of the light, shootin' rainbows through the night)
Lookin' up, I saw we was high up on this ridge
He took me by the arm;
lead me right over to the edge
I was so scared I couldn’t find a single word to say
I mean, there’s 10,000 feet of empty air, and it’s just about an inch away
But a million miles was out beyond the waving of his hand
And I was looking through His eyes, right in through another land
(Cowboy of the light, shootin' rainbows through the night)
He said;
«This is my Father’s ranch, just as far as you can see
He made it out of nothing;
every branch, every tree
The stars, and the mountains, the rivers, the streams
The oceans and the fountains, and the valley of your dreams
I know that place you’re lookin' for, that place you long to be
Truth is, I’m the only door, you’re going to have to pass right through me
Bendin' back I tipped my hat so I could look Him in the eye
He just smiled and gave me confidence.
He said;
«Go ahead and try»
Well, it was now or never, and I knew I had to start
So I took that step and I went fallin', straight in through His heart
The first thing that I noticed, coming out the other side
All my fears had vanished.
Jesus taught me how to fly
(Cowboy of the light, shooting rainbows through the night)
There’s a Cosmic cowboy, and he rides the starry range
He’s a supernatural plowboy, and he is dressed up kind of strange
To think I nearly missed Him, being out there on the run
Ah, but that old hat that he’s wearin', its shinning brighter than the sun
And when my eyes adjusted, to the flashin' of His smile
Hey, I saw his invitation.
He said;
«Come on, Barry, we’ll go ridin' for awhile»
(Cowboy of the night, shooting rainbows through the night)
