Earth Lyrics - Seals And Crofts

Earth is my mother, no other my sanctuary 

But earth is my prison, my grave and my mortuary 

Give me a castle in the sun 

Where rainbows have ends and people are one 

Show me an earth where the birth of a child disguised 

As the word can be recognized 

Earth is my nation, my station, obligatory 

But earth is my sorrow, my curses' depository 

Give me a table beyond the clouds 

Where there's enough food to feed all the crowds 

Show me an earth where the birth of a child disguised 

As the word can be recognized 

Let me hear my other voice 

Who guides me now but gives me choice 

Tell me where to find the friend 

Should He pass this way again 

Remember Akka for his sake 

The earth is but a snake 

To His voice that spake 

Earth is my mother, no other, my sanctuary 

But earth is my prison, my grave and my mortuary 

Give me a castle in the sun 

Where rainbows have ends and people are one 

Show me an earth where the birth of a child disguised 

As the word can be recognized
