A Visitation

Lyrics: Brian Godchaux
Music: Brian Godchaux

I have been down in the valley
I've been down to the sea
I've climbed up to the mountain tops
And seen as far as my eye can see

I've told it to the mountain
I've talked to the moon and the sun
I've asked the stars a question
And run as fast as I can run

But don't be weary, traveller
Don't be weary, pick up your feet
The sun's gonna shine in the morning
But don't be weary, traveller
Don't be weary, pick up your feet
The sun's gonna shine in the morning
And the people are waiting for a visitation

Well the people is moving, going with the flow
And the fishes in the river swimming to and fro
Today, then tomorrow, here they come, there they go
All up and down the creation

Well the people is moving, going with the flow
And the fishes in the river swimming to and fro
Today, then tomorrow, here they come, there they go
All up and down the creation

We're travelling on, one and all
A road so steep, even the strong may fall
But even down in the deepest deep
Within the heart of hearts, your heart will keep

We're travelling on, one and all
A road so steep, even the strong may fall
But even down in the deepest deep
Within the heart of hearts, your heart will keep

Well the people is moving, going with the flow
And the fishes in the river swimming to and fro
Today, then tomorrow, here they come, there they go
All up and down the creation

Well the people is moving, going with the flow
And the fishes in the river swimming to and fro
Today, then tomorrow, here they come, there they go
All up and down the creation

But don't be weary, traveller
Don't be weary, pick up your feet
The sun's gonna shine in the morning
But don't be weary, traveller
Don't be weary, pick up your feet
The sun's gonna shine in the morning
And the people are waiting for a visitation
