John Edmond - Siener Van Rensburg şarkı sözleri

Sanatçı: John Edmond

albüm: Boer and Brit Battlefield Heroes


His beard was long and flowing, his eyes were deep and knowing.
On commando in the Boer War ever at his General's side.
When in the field at night he'd fear there was an enemy presence near.
Those that disbelieved him were captured or they died.
Some say he was a prophet and others a clairvoyant
And though some had no faith in him his reputation grew.
Some scorned his premonitions, others hung on his predictions,
Some signs were misinterpreted and some of them came true.
Did Siener van Rensburg speak common sense words?
Through his long flowing beard and his penetrating eyes,
Was there a hidden warning word to empires that forsake the Lord
The permissiveness and decadence could lead to their demise?
He always read his bible; preferred it to the rifle
And by that holy word, he would always stand.
Its message always in his head 'twas the only book he ever read
And psalms were the only songs that he ever sang.
Predicted General De La Rey would die in a mysterious way.
And into worldwide wars, great lands would twice be hurled
And the rise of an ideology bringing poverty and misery
And a final gigantic war that might destroy the world.
Did Siener van Rensburg speak common sense words?
Through his long flowing beard and his penetrating eyes,
Was there a hidden warning word to empires that forsake the Lord
The permissiveness and decadence could lead to their demise?
He spoke of nuclear accidents and other natural incidents;
An earthquake that might devastate some mighty eastern lands
And he said the land he live in would change hands
And diseases so bizarre would sweep through Africa.
And of a famous princess dying who was full of love and care
And electrical inventions that would cripple mighty nations
And Western armies joining hands to fight an eastern bear.
Was there a hidden warning word to empires that forsake the Lord
The permissiveness and decadence could lead to their demise?
