NAILS IN THE ROAD

 

Nails in the road

They traveled on.

Nails in the road

Out of Babylon.

 

Nails in the road,

Crowd in a hurry.

Nails in the road

Up to Calvary.

 

Nails in the road,

Hammers in their hearts;

Nails in the road

Where His story starts.

 

Nails in the road

Thorns in His crown.

Nails in the road, 

Not sure if this experiment worked.  If The Garden of Eden really was situated where Iraq is today, then we've come full circle from being driven out of The Garden to fighting our way back in.  I was trying for a long, drawn out, wearying, exodus march kind of feeling with the discord of the journey hinted at by the not-quite-on-key guitar and harmonica (though I may have overdone the off-key stuff) ... or maybe I just can't play on key, so I made up all this about walking with Christ to Calvary and then back to Babylon :-) !!
