Open Your Eyes |
Open your eyes my newborn son |
See your world that’s new begun |
Growing the land beneath our feet |
Heaven sent across to eat crust |
Hush-a-bye taste the sweetness of your years |
By and by we’ll all learn the taste of tears |
Open your eyes my growing son |
There is hard work to be done |
Follow your father to his toil |
His bend your back and break the soil |
Who can say what you sow beneath the sand |
Day by day something stirs our sleeping land |
Open your eyes my gentle son |
Take your leave and take your gun |
Follow your father through the hills to the hills |
Heaven gives and heaven kills |
Go with God and the youg men in their prime |
Here I’ll wait where I waited all through time |
Open your eyes my beloved son |
Is your day so quickly done? |
How can you fall asleep so soon |
When the sun stands yet at noon? |
Walk with me where we walked spring ago |
Come and see the flowers have begun to grow |
La la la la la la la la la |
