Music Monday: Gown of Green


Background: This song reminds me to not look down on myself, because of the past. Instead I am reminded that greater things are planned for me and must trust in myself to find that hope I need. I desire that for everyone here. 


The Collection – The Gown of Green Lyrics
I am an anchor at the bottom of a lake
Longing for the ship from which I break
and I won’t let nobody down
no, I won’t keep nobody grounded

You walked around and you planted seeds
Your kingdom came out from up among the weeds
and the men all cried while staring at the trees
saying, “What are we supposed to see?
Supposed to see?”

Yeah, I say you’ll see freedom
I say you’ll see freedom
Stop looking at the ground, start looking at the leaves
Up among the dirt and rust is where the Kingdom breathes
You’ll see freedom

When we finally left that town
They had put all their stones down
You drew lines in the middle of the street
(Redefine the place we meet)

If the come to meet us there
We’ll turn all of the swords to plowshares
We’ll sow the Earth with diligence and love
(Must have come from Heaven above)

We will sow the Earth
We will sow the Earth
We will sow the Earth with diligence and love
We will sow the Earth
We will sow the Earth
We will sow the Earth with diligence and love
We will sow the Earth
We will sow the Earth
We will sow the Earth with diligence and love
We will sow the Earth
We will sow the Earth
It won’t matter anymore where you came from
We will sow the Earth
We will sow the Earth
We will sow the Earth with diligence and love
We will sow the Earth
We will sow the Earth
We will sow the Earth with diligence and love
