Lyrics
Rainbow Children
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
With the accurate understanding of God and His law
They went about the work of building a new nation
The Rainbow Children
Just like the sun, the Rainbow Children rise
Flying upon the wings of the New Translation
See them fly, fly
The covenant will b kept this time
Just like the sun, the Rainbow Children rise
Rainbow children, it's time 2 rise!
Rainbow children, it's time 2 rise!
As prophesied, the Wise One and his woman were tempted by the Resistor
He, knowing full well the Wise One's love for God, assimilated the woman first and only
Quite naturally, chaos ensued and she and five others were banished from the rainbow for ever
Just like the sun, the Rainbow Children rise
Flying upon the wings of the New Translation
See them fly, fly
The covenant will b kept this time
Just like the sun, the Rainbow Children rise
Just like the sun, the Rainbow Children rise
Flying upon the wings of the New Translation
See them fly, fly
The covenant will b kept this time
Just like the sun, the Rainbow Children rise
Who is ur real father?
The everlasting one
The one who came from nothing
And yet from this one, everything comes
The one who commands ur momma
With the simple phrase "I am"
And every time that she obeys
She gives birth 2 the Son of Man
Who is this?
Reproduction of the new breed leader
Stand up and organize!
Reproduction of the new breed leader
Stand up and organize!
The Agreement
With every birth, we keep it so
Never changing one piece of it
In fear of what would unfold
The scales would then become unbalanced
And thus would begin the fall
The sin of one would become
The sin of one and all
Rise, rise, rise
Rise, Rainbow Children, rise
Rise, Rainbow Children, rise
The Wise One who understood the law that was handed down from God long ago
Held fast in his belief that the Lord would bring him another one who loved him so
