    Gospel Plow
    Gospel Plow
    Some people believe Christ rose from the dead
    (drive that gospel plow)
    Killed off sorrow, gave us life instead
    (drive that gospel plow)
    Healed the sick, set the captives free
    (drive that gospel plow)
    Be the person you were meant to be
    (drive that gospel plow)
    Turn the earth, move the sod
    (drive that gospel plow)
    Break up the clods, get right with G-d
    (drive that gospel plow)
    Plant some seeds, water the earth
    (drive that gospel plow)
    The first shall be last, the last shall be first
    (drive that gospel plow)
    Poor folk come to Jesus everyday
    (drive that gospel plow)
    The rich boy just turned away
    (drive that gospel plow)
    Jesus will return some folks say
    (drive that gospel plow)
    Maybe he comes back everyday
    (drive that gospel plow)
    Work the ground, plant the seeds
    (drive that gospel plow)
    Be the gardener, pull the weeds
    (drive that gospel plow)
    Heal the sick, feed the poor
    (drive that gospel plow)
    Be a peacemaker, end the war
    (drive that gospel plow, drive that gospel plow)
    Dennis Kline/Trad. (from the collection "Time Machine" 2013

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

    Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
