About the Artist
Lyrics
Can't see nothing in front of me Can't see nothing coming up behind I make my way through this darkness I can't feel nothin' but this chain that binds me Lost track of how far I've gone How far I've gone, how high I've climbed On my back's a 60 pound stone On my shoulder a half mile line Come on up for the rising Come on up, lay your hands in mine Come on up for the rising Come on up for the rising tonight Left the house this morning Bells ringing filled the air Wearing the cross of my calling On wheels of fire I come rollin' down here Come on up for the rising Come on up, lay your hands in mine Come on up for the rising Come on up for the rising tonight Yeah, li-li-li-li-la-li-li-li-li-li La-la-li-li-li-la-la-li-li There's spirits above and behind me Faces gone, black eyes burnin' bright May their precious blood bind me Lord, as I stand before your fiery light Li-li-li-li-li-li-li-li-li La-la-li-li-li-li-li-li-li-li I see you Mary in the garden In the garden of a thousand sighs There's holy pictures of our children Dancing in a sky filled with light May I feel your arms around me? May I feel your blood mix with mine? A dream of life comes to me Like a catfish dancing on the end of my line Sky of blackness and sorrow (A dream of life) Sky of love, sky of tears (A dream of life) Sky of glory and sadness (A dream of life) Sky of mercy, sky of fear (A dream of life) Sky of memory and shadow (A dream of life) Your burnin' winds fill my arms tonight Sky of longing and emptiness Sky of fullness, sky of blessed life Come on up for the rising Come on up, lay your hands in mine Come on up for the rising Come on up for the rising tonight Yeah, ii-li-li-li-li-li-li-li-li La-la-li-li-li-li-li-li-la-li-li La-la-li-li-li-li-li-li-la-li-li La-la-li-li-li-li-li-li-la-li-li A dream of life A dream of life A dream of life
