Additional Lyrics 2. First there's a woman 3. First came the woman All through the night Who follows a man Who prays and delivers the son And lives for the light in his eyes One who's made ready Usually willing To enter a world She dreams to fulfill And live until everything's done The great propheciesof the skies Another soul to bear And so with everything given to see A cross we share She wants to be what he wants to be And now and then First there's a woman Somebody with a crown we wear Who follows a man But first there's a woman And follows him all the way home Who carries the child And carries them all the way home

Additional Lyrics
, Some folks talk about the love they're feeling. Talk about the love they need. Others say that love is waiting. In the meantime watch my speed. I got love for climbing mountains, love for sailing over seas. I got love there is no stopping, love for sending like the breeze. To Chorus: When my life on earth is over and the struggle here is done. I will find a new dimension in the rising sun. In the place that is forever, I will spread my wings and fly. If you seea streak of lightning, I'll be passingby. To Chorus:

Additional Lyrics 2. My father built us houses. And he kept his folks inside, His images were stolen, And his beauty was denied,
6. Sometimesthe river's calling, Sometimesthe shadowsfall, That's when he's like a mountain. Rising master over all,
3. My brothers are unhappy, My sisters they are too, My mother prays for glory, And my father stands accused,
7. This story of my father, Is the one I tell and give, It's the power and the glory, Of the life I make and live.
4. My father, yes my father, A brave and skillful man, He fed and served his people, With the magic of his hand,
8. My father has a kingdom, My father wears a crown. And he lives within the people, In the lives he handed down,
5. My father, yes my father, His soul was sorely tried, 'Cause his images were stolen, And his beauty was denied,
9. My father has a kingdom, My father wears a crown, And through the spirit of my mother, Lord, The crown was handed down.

Additional Lyrics 2. He gathers pretty flowers And he hums, sometimeshe sings His melody is mellow And around the world it rings He is my world's delight And in the evening out of sight He is starrin' in the night The rising sun.
3. SometimesI run to meet him And I tell him of my dreams His gaze is steady on me And I'm blushing from his beams His conversationtsfine And I love to dance and dine With the movin' groovin' Early rising sun.
4. He brings the many colors For the facesthat I wear His face is like a diamond And it's shining everywhere He is a central figure And he makes the world grow bigger Just becausehe is the early rising sun Just becausehe is the early rising sun.

AdditionalLyrics 3. There's a natural obligation 2. There's a hand to rock the cradle To what we own and claim And a hand to help us stand Possessingand belonging to With a gentle kind of motion Acknowledging a name As it moves across the land So keep your hand wide open And the hand's unclenched and open Ifyou're needing love today Gifts of life and love it brings 'Cause you can't looseit even if you So keep your hand wide open it all away. Throw you're It needing anything. To Chorus: To Chorus:

Additional Lyrics When I'm called home I will sing a song And tell them of a beggar's life Where everything goeswrong Where everybody's hopes and dreams Are shattered by the wind. I'll tell them of a ghosty world Of us and they and him. I'll tell them how the shadows fall When they call me home. When I'm called home I will tell the stars Of the battles that were lost In a world of wars. I will tell the rivers Of the children lost at sea Of how a soul is bartered And what it costs a spirit free. Hallelujah tell a story, oh When they call me home.
when thev call me home.
