Mary Rocap: Music
Horse and Rider
(Horse and Rider off of Sweet Mimosa)
Play me something tuneful you know I got a mind to sing
Miriam shake the beat out on your silver tamborine
How can a blessing feel so much like a curse?
In or out of Egypt I don't know which one is worse
I looked over Jordan
What can it be?
Horse and rider
Tumbling into the sea
Led by fire in darkness, smoling embers in the light
Always moving somewhere, somewhere always out of sight
Crying out so thristy "Look down on your holy flock"
Give me what I ask for; bring forth water out of rock
I looked over Jordan . . .
Lord I know you told me that you'd take me to the promised land
And I know it's out there but I am too weak to stand
I got a feeling lately that I may not make it o'er
But I'm raising up a child to eat milk and honey evermore
I looked over Jordan .
