Across great mountains
Over the seas
Came the latter rains
To water our seeds
Like Magi’s from the east
Came the twelve from the west
They came in ‘Noah’s Ark’
To a people in the dark
They had a vision
They came for a mission
They heard the echo’s of our wails
And came with healing in their sails
Lambs of Jah
Lions of Judah
Soldiers of the Word
Armed with the sword
Great are thy feats!
Beautiful are thy feet!
Priests and Priestesses
Princes and princesses
Holy Lilies!
Royal Daisies!
Soon to depart our midst
Like the early morning mist
The Lord with thee!
We love thee!
DEDICATED TO THE TWELVE YOUTHS FROM THE MERCY SHIP ANASTASIA
WHO VISITED THE EVANGELICAL PRESBYTARIAN CHURCH OF BENIN (TRINITY PARISH, JERICHO)IN 1997.
