I rode a long way on a one trick pony
I broke faces that were cold and stony
And in the evening when the night meets the gloaming
Like a pigeon, my heart goes homing
I have been subject to change
Not what I’d rearrange
I never flock with those of fancy feathers
I’ve met all my friends in unfair weather
Chorus: I’ll belong when the kingdom come, kingdom come etc.
I was crying in the wilderness
It’s a pretty good place to build a home I guess
I know the baby born in Bethlehem
I saw the star that brought the wise men unto him
Sunflower grows by my cottage door
He’s grown ten feet or maybe more
Face to the sun and wanting more
Like a lion without a roar
Chorus etc.
Who will hear my offering if only stars are allowed to sing
I believe in the small and free
As I gaze from heights that are wuthering
Let golden doubt come along
Let my heart be full of song
I never flock with those of fancy feathers
I’ve met all my friends in unfair weather.
