Come To The Father

(Deuteronomy 32:6, Daniel 1:1-4, 1:18-20, 2:34, 4:10, 4:33, 7:1-14, 8:1-12, 10:1-12:13)
parody of Run to the Water written by Ed Kowalczyk and performed by Live

This desert keeps us apart
From homeland of our birth
Nation of children who weep forlorn
Taken with no mirth
Well our weeping people were torn away
And we got removed
And we got removed


Brought by Nebuchadnezzar
Then we’re trained in lessons here
Done the test we’re smartest new kids
And live in service to the peer

Adam and Eve lived up the stream from here
Babylon is now my town
With a crazy grass-eater for king
Mushy brain, he crawls around

Hear the moaning of lost exiles here
Who stay Euphrates town
As slaves we served for threescore years
How much longer now

Come to the Father
And find me there
Come to the shore, God has spoken
And some say it’s madness
That these dreams are looney tunes
These dreams may come true soon

And He will never leave us,
Never forsake, this world and all we see
He is keepin’, now hear as I say
Home we will see

Then a ram went and lost a fight here
And left his world torn down
He’s giving up all of his space
To a goat who missed the ground

Come to the Father
And find me there
You will be sure, God has spoken
We’ll come through with gladness
And we’ll see our homes real soon

With a new clear sign the Lord did impart
Yeah, I can see it now Lord
There will come all the rising of graves
And the Tribulation
With His Grace in the home of ascended souls
Who shall accept His love!

Come to the Father
And find me there
Homeland restored, God has spoken
We’ll come through with gladness
And we’ll see our homes real soon

With a new clear sign the Lord did impart
See clear but strangely, mighty tree
And heavy guy so tall with iron and clay toes
Smashed to smithereens it will happen
Come to the Father (and find me there)
Come to the Father
