The Howling - Rich Mullins[00:00:00]
Written by:Rich Mullins/Beaker[00:00:01]
I can see the iron horses' tracks[00:00:09]
Pressed in the mud from the weight of all that steam and steel[00:00:13]
But the wind don't blow where you want it to go[00:00:17]
The wind just goes where it will and you follow[00:00:22]
I can feel the breath of winter[00:00:26]
Driving this snow across these newly-whited plains[00:00:30]
Takes my breath from me and it leaves me falling[00:00:34]
Then it picks me up again in its own strength[00:00:38]
And I can hear the wild wind howling[00:00:42]
And I can feel it in my bones[00:00:47]
And I know that the howling will take me home[00:00:51]
I can see some traveller's footprints[00:01:08]
There's a little bit of blood in every step he made[00:01:12]
I wonder what kind of burden he's bearing[00:01:16]
That has cut him so deeply every step along the long long way[00:01:19]
In the west I see an evening[00:01:24]
This scarlet thread stretched beneath the gathering dark[00:01:28]
Red as the blood on the hands of the Savior[00:01:33]
And rich as the mercy that flowed from his broken heart[00:01:36]
And I can hear the wild wind howling[00:01:41]
And I can feel it in my bones[00:01:45]
And I know that the howling will take me home[00:01:50]
These men of violence they have made this a world full of wars[00:01:58]
Oh God break your silence and let your justice shine forth[00:02:06]
Show some mercy oh Lord[00:02:11]
'Cause I can see a people dispossessed[00:02:14]
Broken and brave in the face of so much fear[00:02:19]
Driven from their homes by the greed of a nation[00:02:23]
Whose treaties were as good as litter[00:02:26]
Along the trail of their tears[00:02:28]
I can see the Covenant colors[00:02:31]
The sun and the rain have woven against the blue of the sky[00:02:35]
And I know if we live we will live by his promise[00:02:39]
I know he who made it[00:02:43]
I'm sure that he would not lie[00:02:44]
And I can hear the wild wind howling[00:02:48]
And I can feel it in my bones[00:02:52]
And I know that the howling will take me home[00:02:56]
