Everlasting Arm

And so with the explorers on my heels I started t'wheel/Stepped

aside stone walls, i was sick of it all/And so I set

my sail on yr coattails and yr warm shawl/Up where

there's an Everlasting Arm,

sends us out alone, moves us out of harm/Ever-reaching

always sweeping...And though I struggled t'take my

place/there stood my mistake/Standing there like some

great big theatre curtain he knew for certain I'd come

down on you softly/Up where.

../By and by the gates swung wide/Loved ones came in

sight/Storming down the street like Puerto-Rican kids

in a summer rain/Breaking open the hydrants and going insane/Up where...
