Pioneering

Pioneering down comes the day

The light is on the ground

And I think I will be well

On the lawn of St. John the Divine

Dogs and birds are starting early to arrive

Pioneering down will come the day now

We are driving out into brilliant light

Remember how we saw windmills

On for miles

Like white birds in California skies

Lifting up at once to be near to the sea

Oh drive on, drive on

I will be well, I will be

I can see this on St. Francis Day

All the sadnesses will surely fall away

Pioneering down will come the day now
