Look To the East There Is a Faint Glow

can a man grow wheat with out seed
or fillfill up the sky with the clouds that nourish it
can he tread upon the stars the work of his hands
will they not return to Egypt
and will not Assyria rule over them
because they refuse to repent
swords will flash in there cities 
Iwill destroy the bars of there gates
and put an end to there plans.
