Bread and Fishes |
As I went a walkin' one mornin' in spring |
I met with some travelers in an old country lane |
One was an old man, the second a maid, |
And the third was a young boy who smiled as he said |
We’ve the wind in the willows, |
And the birds in the sky, |
We’ve a bright sun to warm us, |
Where ever we lie |
We have bread and fishes and a jug of red wine |
To share on our journey with all of mankind |
I sat down beside them, |
The flowers all around, |
And we ate on a mantle spread out on the ground |
They told me of prophets and princes and kings |
And they spoke of the one god who knows everything |
I asked them to tell me their name and their race |
So I might remember their kindness and grace |
My name is Joseph, this is Mary my wife |
And this is our young son, our pride and delight |
We travel the whole world, by land and by sea |
To tell all the people how they might be free |
Like the |
Sadly, I left them, in an old country lane |
For I knew that I never would see them again |
One was an old man, the second a maid |
And the third was a young boy who smiled as he said |
We’ve the wind… |
