Loving Hand of God - Orchid[00:00:00]

I was born into this world on the seventh day of June[00:00:39]

No sunshine broke the sky as I arrived[00:00:46]

My father was a rector with a hard and heavy hand[00:00:53]

My mother was thirteen and not his wife[00:00:59]

She gave me to the sisters on the farthest edge of town[00:01:06]

No one would be the wise or see my face[00:01:12]

I became a man raised up by cemetery wolves[00:01:20]

We earned our keep by digging beggar's graves[00:01:26]

I guess that's just the way they showed me[00:01:33]

The loving hand of God[00:01:38]

Loving hand of God[00:01:45]

When fifteen years had passed[00:01:52]

They put me out upon the stones[00:01:55]

To make my way with gypsies and with thieves[00:01:59]

A kindly hearted cropper took me on to till his land[00:02:06]

I'd work until my fingers they did bleed[00:02:12]

His daughter was a deaf and mute with kind and loving eyes[00:02:19]

The color of the bluest summer sky[00:02:26]

A love grew strong between us[00:02:32]

And I asked to take her hand[00:02:35]

But the father said he'd sooner see her die[00:02:39]

I guess that's just the way he showed me[00:02:46]

The loving hand of God[00:02:51]

Loving hand of God[00:02:57]

And in the spring we stole away to find a life anew[00:04:54]

With pennies and our bags to make our way[00:05:00]

We found work with the magistrate tending to his land[00:05:07]

And happiness was born again each day[00:05:13]

And in the fall I married her and summer brought a child[00:05:20]

In which there was no sign of me at all[00:05:27]

And when I said that son of mine did have her father's eyes[00:05:33]

She wept and said that he had come to call[00:05:39]

I guess that's just the way he showed me[00:05:47]

The loving hand of God[00:05:51]

Loving hand of God[00:05:58]

End[00:06:04]
