Son of Man

Son of Man
 
We will travel under the heat of mid days sun
Knowing our spiritual journey has just begun
 
Take a sailing ship across the seven seas
While in the westerly wind we will be free
Allow the sea waves wash away our sins
In a sacred place where new hope begins
 
It is a journey of both heart and soul
Before our hearts’ become too old
 
We will walk a million miles from home
To where the camel caravans used to roam
 
We will walk the stepping stones of faith
That will lead us to the garden of Eden’s  gate
 
Sleep under the stars of the desert night
Visions of the Lord in the Holy light
 
Hear his voice echoed over the land
Over the dunes and the shifting sand
 
The Lord reaches out and touches our very soul
Passing hours of the night won’t take their toll
 
We will follow the Lord’s footsteps that he made
While wishing on earth he could have stayed
 
Traverse over the ever shifting sands of time
Transcending all boundaries’ of heart and mind
 
We will search for hope across this dusty land
Following in the footsteps of the son of man
 
Let him wrap us in the wings tomorrow
May his love take away all our sorrow
 
Lord save these lonely hearts of ours
Give us the moonlight and the stars
