On The Road To Calvary

 

On The Road To Calvary


I saw St. Christopher walking downtown on Main
With Black Madonna, fingers holding a flame
I saw an eagle rise, right out of the blue
I heard a car crash, it reminded me of you

I saw a baby starve in South Africa
Too weak to cry, her tears rolled down the straw
I saw an orphan give vagabond [?]
Just at that moment I realized

You carry me across this mighty river
You lift me up above the raging sea
You bring me all this love that you deliver
Straight to my back porch on the road to Calvary

I've seen the rich man with his bracelets of gold
Four cars and a yacht and a mistress, I'm told
Somewhere a restless wind blows out to the sea
Somewhere there is a place for you and for me

You carry me across this mighty river
You lift me up above the raging sea
You bring me all this love that you deliver
Straight to my back porch on the road to Calvary
Straight to my back porch on the road to Calvary

So, if you're wondering where I was last night
With Black Madonna, yes, she gave me a light
I guess there's not much more that I have to say
Just tell St. Christopher we're all on our way
Tell St. Christopher we're all on our way

All on our way

done
