In This Warm Light

Come here now.
Come lie together with us
on this fine shining day.
Feel the warm light on your skin,
the grass so springy on your side,
and the scent of flowers all around.
Listen to our happy song,
and join your voice with ours, so sweetly.
We're so safe here, so free,
and our fences keep the neighbors good.

Come feeling the light with us.
It was such a warm day,
and the sunshine feels so good.
Don't you feel so safe with us,
here where the wolves of war are far away?
Isn't it so very nice here
now that we're all the same?
Doesn't the man by the fence look kindly?
We're safe here, so so free,
and fences keep the neighbors good.

Look opened the gate the man
who feeding us all so gently.
How well he raised us all,
and how kindly he fed us from his hand.
How kind of him to shear us
when our fleece grows all too long.
How gently he leads you to the gate,
so you can join the others who leave us.
Aren't we all so safe and free,
with our fence to keep the neighbors good?
