The Roses - Caedmon's Call[00:00:01]
High above the Valley of Quito[00:00:19]
An old man and his bride grow roses[00:00:22]
Red and yellow white and golden[00:00:28]
And to him they are precious as children[00:00:32]
Their daughter she moved to America[00:00:37]
One more brick in the tower of Babel[00:00:41]
She has a son they've never seen at all[00:00:46]
And they're praying they raised her well[00:00:51]
On the mountain high[00:00:56]
They will live and die[00:00:59]
As time just slips away[00:01:02]
And the children grow[00:01:06]
In the God they know[00:01:08]
As time just slips away[00:01:11]
A man his bride his children and his roses[00:01:23]
Planted in faith and watered in tears[00:01:27]
Honey that's all they have and they're happier here[00:01:32]
Than any of my friends back home[00:01:38]
They've met Jesus and they really know Him[00:01:41]
On the mountain high[00:01:48]
They will live and die[00:01:50]
As time just slips away[00:01:53]
And the children grow[00:01:57]
In the God they know[00:01:59]
As time just slips away[00:02:03]
Now I'm back at home all alone and trying to find my thoughts[00:02:10]
About that old man so inspiring but the TV's always on[00:02:15]
And the phone it won't stop ringing and these bills they keep on screaming[00:02:19]
To pay for all the things that we have never really needed[00:02:24]
And I wonder what he's doing right now[00:02:29]
Maybe walking through his simple field and thinking about how[00:02:33]
God has blessed him so[00:02:38]
A man his bride his children and his roses[00:02:43]
On the mountain high[00:02:48]
They will live and die[00:02:50]
As time just slips away[00:02:54]
And the children grow[00:02:57]
In the God they know[00:03:00]
As time just slips away[00:03:03]
On the mountain high[00:03:07]
They will live and die[00:03:09]
As time just slips away[00:03:13]
And the children grow[00:03:16]
In the God they know[00:03:18]
As time just slips away[00:03:22]
Just slips away[00:03:28]
Slips away[00:03:33]
