The Quick and the Dead

from We Walk in the Garden by John Lucas

/

lyrics

I've waited years
By the water's side
For angels
To come and stir the water's tide

But the quickest men
Have passed me every time
And no angel
Has yet to toss a single dime

Oh Jesus,
when will you come again?
For I've seen no hope
In the eyes of crippled men

Oh it seems
That we're all quick or we're dead
There's no mercy here
At this water's head

You don't have to wait, you don't have to wait
You don't have to wait, for the waters to be stirred
...For these waters to be stirred
