a more hospitable land is just over the horizon
I've heard you say this more than once today
as we wandered though this deserted way
time and again we will share a fate that is so surprising
no relief from this unbearable heat
and I don't dare disrobe or bare my feet
still I will follow your guidance like that puppy in my soul
chewing on anything to feel all right
or chasing a sound I heard in the night
I have to believe with all my heart we shall fulfill our goal
pictures are painted of gold we will find
carrots on string for a donkey like mind
