Wayland the Rabbit
Lyricist:Darrell Crofts, James Seals
Oh my Wayland, there's deer in the forests And rivers are flowing just for you Oh my father, look down through the mountains and valleys The grain's in the silo, all for you
One fine morning, as dad was walking Just to see what he could see He spied, a little white rabbit He was frozen as solid as he could be
And dad cried, as he knelt down beside him He asked God, 'How could you be so cruel?' And his heart broke, for the little white rabbit 'But you see that the owl, would never have been so gentle And God is so kind'
I love Wayland 'cause he's strong And I love him 'cause he's weak And the rabbit is running within him
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Oh my Wayland, the children are waiting And berries are ripe down below the hill Oh, my father, the shadows of nighttime can't touch you Immortal go quickly, be thankful the water is cool, drink your fill
Today as I walked 'long beside him I said, 'Dad why do you look so sad?' He turned as he stood by the doorway He said, 'Things are not like they used to be'
I smiled, as if I could teach him I said 'Dad, it's mercy in disguise' 'Once you told of a little white rabbit And you said that the owl would never have been so gentle And God is so kind'
And I love you 'cause you're strong And I love you 'cause you're weak And the rabbit is running within me
