Earth


(lyrics and music by James Seals, 1969)

From the albums SEALS AND CROFTS (1969) and SEALS AND CROFTS I AND II (1974)

Earth is my mother, no other, my sanctuary But earth is my prison, my grave and my mortuary
Give me a castle in the sun where rainbows have ends and people are one
Show me an earth where the birth of a child disguised as the word can be recognized

Earth is my nation, my station, obligatory But earth is my sorrow, my curses' depository
Give me a table beyond the clouds where there's enough food to feed all the crowds
Show me an earth where the birth of a child disguised as the word can be recognized

Let me hear my other voice who guides me now but gives me choice
Tell me where to find the friend should He pass this way again
Remember Akka for his sake, the earth is but a snake to His voice that spake

Earth is my mother, no other, my sanctuary But earth is my prison, my grave and my mortuary
Give me a castle in the sun where rainbows have ends and people are one
Show me an earth where the birth of a child disguised as the word can be recognized
