AWAKENED I FLY- a dedicated verse for Delores Matthews-
Can not smell the flowers
if I'm not awake (yet I can)
Yet if I be dead I'll arise ( I shall )
I'll rise
And shall fly, I'll flee I'll fled
In a twinkling of an eye
I'll fly, soul/spirit rise
I'll fly
awaken by the trumpets call
Sweet soul by the by and by
Can't see the flowers, for humanities tears
They renege punished by their peers
Have no fear, the Comforter here
I'll rise
And shall fly, I'll flee I'll fled
In a twinkling of an eye
I'll fly, soul/spirit rise
I'll fly
